Midnight Secrets

2019

I didn’t think anything could be worse than waking up in the morgue with a note in my hand telling me I’d go on a killing spree if I didn’t drink blood. But then I met Justin. In my ravenously hungry state, the agreement he offered seemed a simple one: I tell no one what I’ve become, and he would allow me to feed off of him. I thought I could handle his hot and cold antics that made it seem like he wanted me but only as his dirty little vampire secret, until a chance opportunity changed everything. The elite Blackburn Academy offered me a full-ride scholarship, if I can pass their grueling trials. With every fiber of my being, I want to be accepted and learn about the vampire lineage I’m now a part of. Justin... has other ideas. Going so far as to resort to sabotage, it seems he’ll stop at nothing to keep me hidden from the elite school and his rich friends. Blood bond aside, he has no idea who he’s dealing with. I will complete those trials, even if it means the end of my undead existence. This book was previously published under the title A Bite at the Cherry (Bite Me Series) Blackburn Academy: Entrance Trials.

Hunter Trials

Entering Blackburn Academy was supposed to be a dream come true. Instead, I’m trapped in a nightmare. A group known as The Elites rule the campus with fear and cruelty. They kill vampires for sport. Worst of all... they think I’m one of them. Only my boyfriend, Justin, knows my deadly truth and he’s suddenly gone missing. The only person who I can turn to for help is Mitch Holter, my Elite bodyguard and the biggest bully at Blackburn. I had no way of knowing the dark and sinister nature of the Academy’s secret traditions. Now, my only goal is to survive the night.

Broken Elites

2019

The Hawthorn Group has a new leader, and he’s itching to send all supernaturals to Alderwood Reformatory... including me. One wrong move, and I’ll be sent off to that prison masquerading as a school, where I’m viewed as a traitor to my own kind. Staying out of trouble becomes a near impossibility when the boy I love starts growing wings and battling dark, demonic urges. A malevolent essence is growing within him, consuming him with its power. Turning to the supernaturals of Alderwood Reformatory, who I’ve been warned to fear, may be my only chance to bring Justin back from the edge. Time is running out. With each second that ticks by, he’s pulled further into that beckoning abyss with no desire to return. This is a full length 95,000 word novel. Recommended for 16+. This book contains sex and swearing.
