Darynda Jones revisits the sexy, suspenseful world of supernatural shenanigans she created in her Grave series with For I Have Sinned. In this Charley Davidson story, Charley helps a woman find out how she died and gives her the closure she needs to pass through to the other side.

First Grave on the Right is the smashing, award-winning debut novel that introduces Charley Davidson: part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper. Charley sees dead people. That's right, she sees dead people. And it's her job to convince them to "go into the light." But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e., murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice. Complicating matters are the intensely hot dreams she's been having about an Entity who has been following her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he might be something else entirely. This is a thrilling debut novel from Darynda Jones, an exciting newcomer to the world of paranormal romantic suspense.

A wickedly funny comedy romance, with a supernatural twist. Oh, and that blood on the cover... it's really jam, kiddies... trust me <evil laugh>... no really... It's rated G okay? Butttt.... my sense of humour runs a little wild. This is my very first story on Wattpad, as well as my very 1st attempt at writing romance... In class, I met a very famous romance author who dared me to have a go at romance... but since I usually love crime, mystery, supernatural and fantasy... I decided it was play time, and anything goes... almost.

Fates, Furies, Sirens, Harpies, call them what you will. Daciana and Ilinca were an ancient evil, and had been known by many names. They had always existed alone, shunning both humans and other demons, yet for the past three hundred years they had lived with the vampires. It was necessary, following the death of their beloved baby sister Anna. Their grief over Anna's death drove them to madness - life with the vampires was all that had brought them back from this dark insanity. And so for three centuries they had bowed to the vampires, called them Master and Mistress, but no longer. Tonight, everything would change. Lilian Van Schattigdame was the company's top salesman in Eastern Europe. He was also their only salesman in Eastern Europe. Had there been others, his top salesman status would likely have been in doubt. He hadn't actually sold anything at this point. Oh, and he was also his boss's wife's cousin's nephew. Count Dodrescu requires a maiden, to fulfill a ritual and serve as the vessel for his beloved Mirela's demon soul. Renfield needs to supply his Master with a maiden, to gain favour and achieve immortality. Daciana and Ilinca need to prevent Dodrescu from finding a maiden, so that he will not discover they are Mirela's murderers. So what happens when all that anyone finds is a guy named Lilian? Prettiest Vampire alternates between horror and humour. It is possibly the scariest - and funniest! - vampire story you will read this year!
