Criminal necromancer & vampire private eye team up to solve the case of the missing barista.

***
When a client drops dead in her fortune telling parlor, 'reformed' necromancer Isla has no choice but to illegally resurrect the poor gal. Your girl's got priors, alright? Hiding a corpse will send Isla back to the slammer. The client's just a Tourist, so Isla is certain nobody will notice. But you know what they say: The only things certain in life are death, taxes, and a handsome vampire poking his fangs where they don't belong. 

Gregor, a vampire private detective, has been hired to find another vamp's misplaced favorite bloodbag-- I mean, barista. Greg knows the fraudulent and distractingly attractive psychic, Isla, is the key to the barista's whereabouts, but he just can't put his fangs on what it is she's hiding from him. 

If her little whoopsie is discovered, Isla fears both the otherworldly authorities and an ancient vampire will have her throat. So she does what any girl would do in her situation. She hires Greg to find the risen barista for her first so that she can undo the resurrection.

Sparks fly and blood splatters as Greg and Isla investigate Philadelphia's secret paranormal society, throw literal bones at the werewolf mafia, commune with the spirits of dead vampire-brides, dodge arrest by the magic fuzz, and occasionally pop off for late night cheesesteaks.

THE AMBY AWARDS 2022 WINNER (Best Series) Book One (Book Three of the trilogy is on the WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST) Wattpad featured story. The Adept Pen 21 finalist. Samara, a young woman from London, visits Bran Castle in Romania during a Halloween night. Somehow, she's always felt drawn to the story of Vlad the Impaler, the historical character who allegedly inspired the writer, Bram Stoker, to write his Count Dracula. Annoyed by her noisy friends, she strolls behind her group when they enter the castle and thus gets approached by their tall dark and handsome guide. Samara can't fight the attraction she feels for him, even after he claims to be Vlad Dracul himself, obviously making fun of her...or? At the end of the tour, unable to resist her curiosity, she follows the guide through a dark corridor and time travels to another time, a late medieval world populated by very unusual vampires, where she had once belonged. The mysterious guide turns out to be her husband, none less than Vlad III, the Prince of Wallachia, the Impaler... Dracula. Samara's memories start to trickle back slowly, both good and bad. The man she loves so much that she feels overcome by her feelings for him is not exactly as he was when she left him before, when she... died. A lot of things have changed in her absence, in six hundred years. But she is changed too, having grown up in the 21st century this time around, she is not quite the same girl as when she lived in Vlad's castle, in the late medievals. Will the great love they feel for each other despite their long separation be strong enough to overcome all their differences? Will Samara and Vlad accept each other as they are now and fight for their love? Will they defend it in the dangerous world they live in, full of people, or better vampires, who would rather see them apart? In this place where nothing and no one is what they really seem to be at first sight? Cover: @WakeWriteWrath

Part 1/Book One currently not available and in the professional editing stage. Part 2 UPDATED WEEKLY for current readers He finally released my legs, allowing me to slide down his body until my feet hit the floor, but that was as far as he let me go. Heat was radiating off him, scorching me all the way down my spine as he held me tightly against him. His quick breaths were falling on the back of my neck with a tingling warmth that brought goosebumps to the surface of my skin. Placing one large hand on my shoulder, he wrapped my long brown hair around his other. Gently, he tugged on my dark mane, pulling my head to the side and exposing the tender column of my neck. Bringing his nose down to the crook there, he inhaled deeply, a rumbling "mmmm" escaping his lips. My mouth went dry. "Are-" I swallowed. "Are you going to mark me?" I manage in a stuttered whisper. Book Blurb: Dr. Willa Grey has developed a little bit of a performance problem... Willa has a plan for how she wants to spend her life. She even fought for a rare opportunity to attend human medical school. Unfortunately for Willa, the time among humans denying her wolf instincts has had dire consequences that could ultimately mean her life. Even worse, her homecoming falls on the eve of the Blue Moon Summit, when she will not only have to face her pack leaders but also some of the most powerful leaders from around the world, and she is terrified they could sniff out the truth. Just as she fears she could possibly lose her pack, and everything she has worked for, a chance encounter with a mysterious wolf on the night of the full moon ignites her mate bond and stirs her dormant wolf. Who is her mystery mate, and will he be her liberator or persecutor? Content Advisory: recommended 18+ due to strong language and sexual content Copyright 2024 Alara Birch, all rights reserved.

Vampire private eye and criminal necromancer return to unravel the mystery of a stolen painting. * When a famous painting vanishes during a gala at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, reformed necromancer turned private eye's assistant, Isla, considers it serendipitous that she happens to be at the soiree. Just don't mention to her vampire boss (and former fling), Greg, she was there on a date with the handsome curator. Hey, if the vamp wants to keep things all business and no play between them, that's his loss. She can be professional about it. Totally. Determined to prove her worth at this whole mystery solving business, Isla convinces her date to hire a certain vampire/necromancer private eye duo to recover the artwork before getting the pesky human authorities involved. Greg, if you're wondering, isn't jealous. He's making damn sure things stay all business between him and Isla moving forward. It's not like he's still craving her intoxicating blood or anything. That would be unprofessional. She can date whoever she wants... after they find this pinched painting. Of course, nailing the thief would go a lot faster if greedy suspects didn't also keep vanishing one by one.

❝ Let's find you a new home, shall we? ❞ •○• A cold Shifter General. A bloodthirsty Vampire Prince. A powerful Fae King. A mysterious protective werewolf Alpha. And a human girl. The question was - why were the strings of fate bringing them together? •○• 18 year old, sharp and vigilant Cara Arnel was one step away from slavery freedom and being sold. And being caught by the Shifter General of the Vampire Army was most certainly not a part of that plan. Nor was becoming a scullery maid or an assaulted slave in the Royal Palace instead of a blood bag or sex slave. But that was when things started to change. Tensions became high and fights broke out in the unstable supernatural world with the return of Lucifer's son: Killian after more than four centuries. Her visions started again. And a bit too many supernatural males were willing to protect her for no reason whatsoever. Turns out, Cara might not be as insignificant as she thought. Yet, she was undoubtedly human. And it seemed, she wasn't as well informed of her past as she thought. If her memories were the ones to be relied upon. At least.......the ones she had of this life. •○• Shortlisted for Wattpad India Awards 2021 (Please don't copy the story line. It's all mine. A figment of my imagination.
