Hello Darkness
Charley Beckett-perfectly sane, normal, Charley Beckett-counts everything. Years since her parents' unsolved murder: fifteen. Bodies she's found dead: three. Puncture wounds on each of their throats: two. People who believe her when she says vampires are to blame: zero. Since her parents' murder, she's tried to get past her hallucinations, PTSD, and her reputation as the little red-haired girl police found screaming about monsters that didn't-surely, couldn't-exist. But there's this story-conspiracy theory-swirling around her small town that says her father was part of a secret government experiment, one that would prove vampires weren't legends at all. And Charley can't move on. Especially when she stumbles upon a dead girl with the same bloody puncture wounds as her parents-and someone follows her home. Left with no one who believes her, Charley breaks into the abandoned facility where her father once worked, desperate to find the truth. But she's not the only one after answers. Victor, a handsome vampire, is there to convince her that not only is she perfectly sane, but he's the only one that can save her from those who seek to abuse her connection to the government's experiments. However, when Victor knows details about her parents' death that only the murderer could, Charley will need to learn to trust herself, no matter how crazy her thoughts may seem. If she doesn't, she'll go from counting bodies to counting her last heartbeats...one...two...three...nothing. "Maybe someone heard my screams or maybe the reaper wears combat boots..."Complete

Raven's Mark
Raven Vaughn has spent her life hiding in the shadows-first to survive, then to hunt. By day, she runs Ink & Steel, a tattoo shop that keeps her hands busy. By night, those same hands are stained in blood, delivering justice to those who deserve it. She works alone. Always has. Always will. But when three dangerous men step into her world, that certainty begins to unravel. Hayes Knight is all sharp edges and quiet control, a man who sees too much and doesn't flinch at the darkness in her. Theodore Gray is as brilliant as he is perceptive, his kindness hiding a mind just as twisted as her own. Elias Hart? He's all effortless charm and reckless curiosity-the kind of trouble she should avoid. They should be threats. Instead, they make her question everything. Alistair Thorn, the tortured FBI agent who's been investigating Raven for years, has his own dark agenda. Despite being on her case, he's on her side-working with Hayes, Theo, and Elias to cover up the messes Raven creates. But even as they work together, Raven can't escape the ghosts of her past, the secrets that keep her running, and the dangerous games they all play. As past and present collide, secrets unravel, and the hunt turns personal, Raven must decide: keep running from the ghosts that haunt her, or let them in-and risk losing the only thing she's ever known. Some marks never fade. Some wounds never heal. And some names are written in blood.Complete
