[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Oh My Ghost! (LingOrm)
Lingling Kwong just wants to graduate, survive her half-time jobs, and not completely lose her mind writing her final thesis. Easier said than done when you're broke, burnt out, and living off instant noodles in a creaky old apartment your parents are barely managing to pay for back in Hong Kong. Her thesis topic? The mysterious death of Orm Kornnaphat-a beautiful, kind-hearted woman whose case was left unsolved and buried in silence. Ling expected late-night research, maybe some spooky vibes at worst. What she didn't expect? Seeing Orm. Like, actually seeing her. Blonde hair. Soft smile. Floating three inches off the ground. Oh, and haunting her apartment. As Ling digs deeper into the past, Orm sticks around-clingy, chaotic, and way too attractive for someone who's technically dead. From flickering lights to flying cutlery to accidental ghost cuddles, the line between fear and affection starts to blur. But falling for a ghost comes with more than just spectral kisses and phantom puns. If Ling doesn't solve the mystery of Orm's death, the girl she's falling for might be trapped forever. Fun. Scary. Chaotic. One's alive. One's dead. And somehow, they might just be each other's unfinished business.Complete
Pretty When They Cry
Seattle has always had its ghosts-the missing women, the unsolved disappearances, the cases that fade into cold files. But Detective Sarah Navarro knows better. These women didn't just vanish. They were taken. For years, she's hunted the shadow lurking beneath the city's neon glow, a predator known only as The Watcher. He doesn't just kill. He keeps his victims alive in the digital world, updating their social media accounts long after they're gone-responding to messages, posting photos, making their families believe they're still out there. But Sarah isn't fooled. She knows he's real. And she's running out of time to stop him. Then there's Emily Monroe-the girl who got away. The only one who has ever survived him. She was just nineteen when she escaped his grasp, bloodied and broken, running barefoot through the streets in the dead of night. But she doesn't remember everything. And she doesn't want to. For years, she's buried the trauma, drowning it in alcohol and pretending the past is behind her. But when a new girl disappears-one who eerily resembles Emily at that age-her carefully constructed world begins to crack. Sarah and Emily have never met, but their paths are about to collide. Because The Watcher is evolving. He's adapting. And he's been watching all along. As Sarah pieces together decades of disappearances and Emily unearths long-buried memories, the truth slowly emerges. This isn't just another case. This is a game. And The Watcher is always one step ahead. Because in his mind, the hunt is never over. And the prettiest ones always cry the most.

Raven Zheng is definitely not crazy. At least - that's what she tells herself. It's hard to believe that when no one else can see what you see. You see, Raven can see the dead. Ghosts, if you will.

When Raven meets Cade Woods, she's surprised to find a person who understand what she's going through, at least a little bit. He doesn't see the dead, per se, but he's seen enough death in his life to see her point of view. And then the first body is found. Soon enough, Raven is catapulted into Cade's world. There seems to be a serial killer in town, one who has connections to Cade and his father that makes him a suspect in the murders, and Raven has no way to know whether or not he can be trusted at all, given his past and his suspicious parentage. But as the body count climbs, Raven and Cade realize that they might be the only ones with the knowledge to stop the killer, even if they have to embrace their past to do it.Complete
