***GirlXGirl Romance*** Living in New York you learn to keep up with the quick pace of the city, myself included. I was never the one to stop and smell the roses, but that was until I met her on that dull September afternoon. Her eyes were light and dark at the same time, as if a devil and an angel lived inside of her. Time itself had stopped, and since that day everything had changed, ever since I had crossed paths with Drew Wilder.

All of her life, Maria Alvarez has been sure of three things. 1.) The Lord God will protect and guide her thought all of the trials of life. 2.) Vampires are soulless husks of their former selves, little more than animated bodies feeding off the living. 3.) It's her job as a servant of God to rid the Earth of them. When her church sends her on an entry level mission to infiltrate the Mircalla Coven and collect enough evidence to arrest them for feeding on humans, she is confident her pure heart and humble spirit will guide her to complete it. But when she starts to spend time with the Coven, she starts to feel doubts creep into her mind. What if everything she's ever been taught is wrong? Her doubts are only exasperated by Carmem Mircalla, a former member of her church, and a broody rebel who seems to have a few secrets of her own. Will the knowledge of the world outside of her church drive her back to the safety of its walls? Or will she finally taste the forbidden fruit?

Wattys 2017 winner in The Originals category!!!! This is NOT a romance between the main character and some hunky guy. These are the adventures of vampire Lena as she lives her life from day to day alongside her human flatmate Carmen. Together they encounter human rights activists (not what you think), overly attached exes, vampire geeks, quarrelsome shapeshifters, some really chill people, and a boy band. Let's Go For A Pint is a satire/genre parody revolving around tropes associated with vampire fiction (mostly tv and film portrayals but written works may be alluded) Season 1 is up. While marked as complete, expect ongoing editing and bonus content to appear. Cover made in Canva
