Chasing Darkness brings back everything I loved about Stealing Light!, September 21, 2017 

There is so much going on in this world to keep you entertained...a classic good vs. evil with angels, fallen, the darkness that follows them, & an emotional avalanche that you don't even realize is upon you until it slams into your heart at full speed. Oh the feels!! 

Cash is back in full on protective smexy mode. Yet my favorite moments were him holding his girl tight ... his whole demeanor sends shivers down the spine with this tender loving attitude that is drool worthy. (Specifically a particular scene where she may have had a bit more "spirit" than expected.) I sure missed CeeCee & her snarky lil' self. She amuses me with her solo debates & sassy commentaries, & I admire how much she's grown emotionally & magically. (Not that you have much choice when some of the most powerful dark forces are determined to steal your light.) I enjoyed every minute of Azazel & his cronies battling it out. Then there's the newest guardian thinking he's all smooth & debonair while some might argue he's more of a pain in the arse. 😂

That ending though!!!!!! 😱

Of course, I have questions & am in need of book 3 ASAP!!!

Halloween has a new girl, and she’s a Ronin Witch! Like no other teenager, Loween is a samurai without a master, and a witch without a coven. This goth girl warrior is mysterious and fun-loving while fighting against the darkest forces of evil.

Riding her skeleton-themed motorcycle, ‘Reaper,’ Loween charges off into the dead of night to confront demons and monsters of every kind. But along the way, she never forgets to have fun, because she’s still a girl at heart!

Behind the terrifying creatures is a shadowy Wraith Witch named, Lady Oiwa. Her goal is nothing less than the destruction of all we hold dear. Thank goodness our Ronin Witch is there to protect us. Even though she’s all that stands between shadow and light, this teen queen of Halloween is completely at home because she’s Loween, Gal Eerie!

Inside are 40 original, spell-binding illustrations created just for you—the imaginative explorer of the fantastic, and the macabre. Accompanied by whimsical insights, the colorist is given a sneak peek into the epic world of Loween, which is also a forthcoming novel series.

Vampire Favors ~ Book #1

by Emily Cyr

Publication Date: April 2, 2015

This book is for 18+

Seven years ago, Addison Fitzpatrick found herself in a bit of a bind. In true Addison-fashion, she'd angered a drug dealer; she may have “forgotten” to pay him. Just when it was time to pay the piper, she was offered a way out by an unlikely being. Cannon Blackwood, master of vampires, made her an offer she couldn't refuse. Now, Addison owes Cannon three favors. Seven years after that fateful meeting, just as Addison’s life is getting back on track, Cannon calls in one of the favors she owes him. There is a new drug that threatens the very existence of the vampire race and Cannon needs Addison, along with his brother Lachlan, who happens to be a professional thief, to steal it and destroy any evidence of it. Not only is the future of the vampires on the line, but with both Cannon and Lachlan vying for her attention, her heart is as well. Addison

has difficult choices to make and dangerous favors to repay if she wants to see the light of another day.

Give and Take

Vampire Favors ~ Book #2

Publication Date: June 1, 2016

This book is for 18+

Addison Fitzpatrick settled her first favor, a cataclysmic repayment that ended with hundreds of Pushers dead. Three months later, she receives a letter from the Vampire who betrayed her trust, asking her to save him. 

The cryptic letter makes one fact perfectly clear – she has to find Lachlan, assuming he’s not already dead. In doing so, she is forced to do the one thing he asked her not to: involve Cannon.

But the search for Lachlan comes with a price. Addison is forced deeper into her debt, just as her life is put in jeopardy when a new danger surfaces. One from her past, stirring up inner demons threatening to take her back to hell.

Now Addison must find a way to kill a supernatural being she’s never even heard of, all while protecting her heart from its love for Lachlan, and its confusing stirrings toward Cannon. It was so much easier to hate the vampires.
Things are not always what they seem in Addison’s world. The fight to save Lachlan will test her strength, her conviction, and her skill as a Pusher. Will she survive unscathed, or will she let the demons win?
