"He glared at his eyes in the mirror, as if he could scare them into changing colour."
  
  Daemon has always hated his Hellfire-red eyes. When he thought he was human, it was because they marked him out as different. Now that he knows what he is, they're a constant reminder of the evil within him.  He's a halfbreed, feared by the humans he wants to befriend and mocked by the demons he rejected. Caught in the middle, his only solace is found working for the anti-demon Order of Michael and spending his life hunting and killing the evil bastards- a kind of bloody 'up yours' to his demonic father.  
  
  But when the girl he loves becomes infected with a poison that will transform her into a demon- the very thing he hates and fears most in the world- will he be able to keep control long enough to save her, or will he succumb to the demon inside?
  
  In a YA urban fantasy novel about magic, demons and the inescapable bonds of family, a question emerges. Can we ever really rise above our natures? Or are we doomed to always become what we were born to be?

I'm a vampire hunter. Nothing is more important than keeping humans safe from the things that haunt their nightmares. It's what I was born to do. So when I hear that a body has turned up that looks a lot like bodies from a previous hunt, I fly to investigate. There's just two problems. One is that I killed the vampire responsible for those deaths. The second? The new body turned up in the home country of the one man who can ignite my temper faster than anyone else. Just when I think it couldn't get any worse, a simple touch has my demon claiming that he is my mate. Things just got a whole lot more complicated. Tall, curvy, brunette with hazel eyes that change from almost totally green to deep brown depending on her mood, she is the one woman that has me wanting to shake her one moment and kiss her senseless the next. She's the one woman I can never have, and the only one I truly want. But when a body turns up that looks like the bodies from a case of hers, I have no choice but to call her in to help find the killer. On top of that, the touch of her hand on my arm is enough for my demon to start claiming her as my mate. Then as if things weren't already complicated enough, I find out that I have a daughter when her mother is killed and the child's rescuers find me. So now I have to get to know my daughter, convince my mate to accept me, and deal with a demon that has a one track mind about protecting its mate, even though she can look after herself way better than I can. All while tracking down a vampire that thinks I killed her sister and is out for revenge. Piece of cake. Right?

⚠️ CAUTION: UNDER CONSTRUCTION , CURRENTLY BEING REWRITTEN ⚠️ Copyright © 2015 by imnotshortimfunsized Life is not guaranteed. It's not something we've earned, or deserve. It's a gift that God himself has given us. It's crazy, stupid, and beautiful. But life has quite a nasty lover, death. They are in a constant tango, when one life is taken another one is given. While one family sits at a grave sight watching their loved one return to dust, another watches a beautiful baby's birth. No matter how hard we try, we can never prevent the inevitable. Like it or not, you have an expiration date. We all do. But, is everything in this life as it seems? Why is it that my life is falling apart, but a drug dealer/rapist is getting rich with his toes in the sand? Why am I being hunted? Why am I someone's prey? Why me? Why am I falling for the man that yearns to see the life drain from my body? My death has become a game of some sorts... for both of us. He tries to kill me, he fails, we spend the night together, and in the morning hes gone. To be honest., I would never admit to myself that I fell inlove with my killer... a killer that was very bad at his job... killing. I was #1 on his kill list, and I knew it. But I had always pondered on the question that still remained... If he really did get a good chance to kill me... would he do it? It had always upset me if I had pondered on the question for too long, and to be honest I don't really know why. Afterall he had been trying to kill me for 4 years now, and he still had not succeded. There were still many, many questions that have not been answered... Why is he so strong and fast? Why is he so inhumanly gorgeous? Why hasn't he killed me already? Why does he want to kill me? Does he... like me back? My name is Saphire Williams. And I am falling for the fallen.

"The realization and truth of my life confused me. My stepmother was actually my father. The man I knew as my father was really a stranger. I was half-demon and half-witch with the magic of both and primed to be the ruler of the magical world." When the always pristine perfect princess Karissa Parker is given a strange little book, she discovers that she is the descendent of a powerful demon-hunting witch and the book contains the magic of her ancestors. Before she even knows how to use it, a creature steals it from her. She and her protector, Ricardo Ortega, must get the book back if she is ever to inherit her mother's family magic. There's just one thing that bothers them. She's always had magic powers. Witches don't inherit their family magic at birth, but demons do. In a world where magic is real and the forces of good hunt the forces of evil, it's possible for hybrids to exist, those who must fight an internal struggle on which side to choose. Kari could no longer ignore the fact that magic and demonic creatures were real. After all, seeing is believing and she saw more in those first few days than she ever thought possible.
