Rivers had no idea vampires were real...until one particularly handsome blood-sucker named Keenan Wargrave made him his thrall. Fifteen years later, Rivers works at Keenan's vampire-exclusive nightclub, serving as bartender, attack dog, and occasional rat. The hours are late. The clientele suck. But at least the job keeps his daughter, Cleo, safe from monsters. Until the monsters start turning their fangs on each other. An old foe from Keenan's past returns with a vengeance and a thirst that human blood can no longer satisfy. Now vampires are the prey. With Keenan's empire in peril and the immortal lives of the Vermilion's vampire staff at stake, Rivers has to pull some overtime to keep his daughter, his vampire, and his last shreds of humanity safe. The night shift's always been a real bitch, but now it's about to bite. Hard. 🐀 Cover art drawn by me.

Santiago thought visiting Greece for his 30th birthday would be harmless. A little sun, a little flirting, maybe a date with a beautiful man named Apollo. The date doesn't go as planned. All Santiago wants afterward is something sweet before heading back to his hostel-except the apple he takes was never meant for human guests. At The Lily Spa, a luxury retreat catering to gods who desperately need rest, one accidental bite turns Santiago into a problem. An immortal one. Ganymede, the spa's unshakable manager, and his staff have very little time to hide their human guest before the other residents notice. And the gods staying there are already difficult enough: Hera and Zeus hover on the edge of disaster, Dionysus treats the pool like a permanent party, and no one reacts well to surprises involving eternity. As tempers rise and old rules begin to crack, Santiago learns the truth about the spa, its staff, and the quiet systems keeping gods from tearing the world apart. Some mistakes change everything. Some places exist to contain them. And some encounters happen exactly where they shouldn't- above the ocean, below the sky.
