~Book One of the Aiden Kelly Chronicles, and a continuation of characters from the Layton McKinley series. This is book follows the four book series, "The Layton McKinley stories." In this story, we will mainly follow Aiden Kelly, and the Hayle family. The Hayles dive into their newly formed business. Aiden and Archie get a crash course in the construction trade. They've said goodbye, for now, to Layla and Ryder, who left for London. As time passes, they begin to ease back into a more normal way of life, and begin to socialize again. Aiden, along with Luke and Levi, are hoping to find someone special, while protecting their family secrets, and flying under the radar of the Garda. This poses a major problem, of how to be themselves, and have a genuinely authentic relationship with someone, when they have to lie frequently about who and what they are. With these stories, I'm exploring the incredible perks, and unthinkable challenges of the vampire condition. Along the way, the group will face significant challenges, in order to protect Layla, who is a combination of supernatural beings. Her special gifts descend from Greek God's, and also combine with vampirism. Her presence is yet another problem for Aiden. His love for her continues, as he battles himself to let her go, and find true love of his own. This fictional story takes place in the Republic of Ireland. The Hayles are comprised of a blended family, of full-blood and half-blood vampires. I hope you will follow along to hear Aiden's story. I look forward to real dialog and positive comments.

~Book 4 Layla's journey continues on! Genevieve had been taken down, in a firey display of Layla's power at the High Cross of Kilbride, Ireland. Just when it feels like things can resume to normal, and Layla can return to London with Ryder, another situation comes to fruition. Archie and her brother Aiden are handling the loss of their father, in two completely different ways. Aiden prefers to stay busy, while Archie adamantly believes that his death was Layla's fault. As a result of Archie's pain and sadness, Layla makes a rash decision to leave on her own. More than anything, she doesn't want to be a burden on anyone. In typical Layla fashion, she sacrifices her own needs and wants to help the ones she loves. The impulsive decision causes her to reunite with Officer Chad Cooper. Layla quickly regrets her choice to leave Ryder. In this book, a whole new set of dilemmas arise, as Layla fights to find her way home. Ryder and Aiden frantically try to find her, with the help of the whole coven. This is a work of fiction. The concept for the book was inspired by the idea of half-blood vampires, as well as Greek mythology. All positive feedback and conversations would be great! I hope you enjoy the adventure as much as I'm enjoying the creative process of writing it. *All images featured in the book were created using Canva.

Luke Hayle and his family, have a unique way of living life. They often are mischievous, and not exactly honest. Even with the best of intentions for Layla, things always seem to be a disaster. Along the way, she discovers the peak of her strengths and the depths of her hardships. Come on this adventure with me. I am not a trained writer, but I thoroughly enjoyed this creative process. I welcome real, constructive feedback and discussions. *If you loved Twilight, this could become your next vampire family to obsess over! * *warning: there are some scenes containing violence towards the lead, female character. This is a purely fictional piece, that was inspired by the idea of a vampire having children with a human, creating a coven of half-bloods. I also explored using different vantage points. Some of the chapters may seem repetitive at first, until you realize it's the same scene from a different character's view point. This is a story of love and loss, and the supernatural. *All images featured in the book were created using Canva.
