"Eternity means nothing to me if it means that I have to carry the guilt of destroying you." ----------------- Wylie Moore, a Reaper who clings to morality in the absence of life, has made a fatal choice. She's abandoned her oath, and neglected to collect a soul when its fated time came. When an unlikely ally joins her side-Finn Halstead, her silent sworn rival-a timeline is severed, and a soul spared. But the afterlife isn't what it seems, and their act of generosity is deemed a crime, pitting them against the commanding powers themselves for judgement. With a guilty verdict on their hands, it is decided that the two of them will be punished in the worst way possible for a Reaper: Resurrection. Thrust into the rural hometown Wylie grew up in, with her murderer still running free and her memory of her death severed, the two Reapers must navigate a twisting world of lies, ominous shadows with pointed teeth, a forced friendship, and their own growing feelings for one another. But Wylie's murderer remembers. They want her dead again-for good this time-and will stop at nothing to see it come to fruition, even if it costs the lives of others. A Reaper's greatest temptation is revenge. To succumb is to be destroyed. To Refuse is to suffer. Wylie will do anything to get back at her killer. Finn will do anything to atone for past mistakes. Even if it means destroying what he was sent to protect. Book One in the Between Eternity Duology (Can be read as a standalone)

The Graves family has everything-money, power, beauty, and a mansion filled with chandeliers and secrets. But behind every polished smile lies something colder... darker... crueler. Fifteen years ago, a man collapsed on the kitchen floor while serving the family. His son screamed for help. A little girl cried beside him. And the entire Graves household stood still and watched him die. The girl grew up to forget the details. The boy grew up with nothing but the memory. Now she is twenty-two. And there is a shadow inside the mansion. A man who moves silently through the halls. A man who knows every corner of the house. A man who watches her... protects her... and steals only what the family never deserved. The night she catches him in the kitchen, he doesn't run. He steps toward her-calm, controlled, familiar. And when she offers him help, he gives her a single rule: "The first Sunday of every month. The Harbor Diner. Leave an envelope. Don't look for me." She doesn't know who he is. She doesn't know why he feels like a memory. She doesn't know why she feels safer with a thief in the dark than with her own family in the light. But the mansion remembers. The shadows remember. And the boy who disappeared has returned as a man shaped by pain, hunger, and love that never died. This is a story about secrets buried under luxury, a girl raised in a gilded prison, and the shadow who came back to claim everything he lost- including her.
