AN ETERNAL RIFT BETWEEN HUMANS AND BEASTS. When a fierce yet beautiful stranger turns up at her door, Skye dives headfirst into a world of myth and magic. A dangerous captive who pulls at her heartstrings. A mysterious elder who bends the forces of nature to her will. And a league of shapeshifters caught in an ancient war against a sect of soldiers who believe them to be demons. As hope becomes sparse, Skye must learn the truth. What are her companions hiding from her? Can they defeat their rivals? And, most importantly, who-or what-is the true enemy? *** #88 in Fantasy - Nov 7, 2017 1st place in the Hidden Gems Awards - Dec 2017 *** © 2017 by K.V. Wilson.

[NOW PUBLISHED ON AMAZON! You can buy it here: http://bit.ly/ColdFireBUY] [*SAMPLE ONLY* LAST 10 CHAPTERS REMOVED] [A Wattpad featured novel] Melissa has a rare, undiagnosed disease, or so say the doctors that did tests on her for half of her life. She doesn't need a medical certificate to tell her that she's different. She was born with a body temperature so low that most people would die before they even started living. Keyword: most. Somehow, Melissa has managed to live for fifteen years, but those years have not been without their hardships. The doctors told her that in order for her organs to function in such cold conditions, her body must absorb the heat from the surrounding air in a painful process dubbed a "heat attack", which slowly turns her temporary home freezing and uninhabitable. Forced to move from city to city in order to keep everyone in her vicinity alive, and plagued by the stares and hushed whispers that accompany her, Melissa tries to lead a normal life. But she's failing miserably. And when she's approached by the new kid in school, all hope of an ordinary life slips from her grasp. Suddenly, strange is the new normal, and Melissa finds herself wrapped up in a new world where ghosts aren't "just in her head", glass windows shatter unprovoked, and rare, undiagnosed diseases aren't actually diseases at all. And to top it all off, someone - or multiple someones - seem to want her dead. So much for normal... © 2013 by shayebay All Rights Reserved PUBLISHED JUNE 26, 2019 WITH TYPEWRITER PUB!!

Red Night and the Vampire Files series are available on most retailers. Amazon, Apple, Nook, Kobo, Google Play and many more. Read the first book here for free. I know what's hiding in the shadows, and now... they know about me. I'm Samantha Chase, a private investigator and CEO of my own company--even if I'm the only employee. A typical day for me might go something like this; Follow the other woman, take detailed notes, snap some incriminating photos, then grab Thai food for me, and cat litter for Wilbur, on my way home for the night. Glamorous, right? It was at least predictable, until a routine surveillance job went terribly wrong, placing me right smack in the middle of two rival vampires, and a lone hunter. And don't be fooled-monsters can be beautiful and deadly. No one is who they seem in this game of cat and mouse-and that includes me. ***Read the exciting first book in the series fans describe as "Twilight meets True Blood!"*** (PUBLISHED) Print*eBook*Audio
