In the sprawling, neon-lit city of Silverbridge, Naomi Kane has always sensed something lurking beneath the surface shadowy figures, flickers of magic, and an unexplainable pull to the unseen. When she encounters a wraith in a dark alley, her life changes forever. Pulled into a hidden world known as The Rift, Naomi discovers she is one of the last Seers, gifted with the power to see beyond the veil that separates her world from another world of magic, danger, and ancient forces.
Now, the wraiths, once silent guardians, warn of an impending collapse. The thin barrier between realms is weakening, and dark creatures from beyond threaten to break through. Naomi's only hope lies in finding the legendary Heart of Silverbridge, an ancient artifact said to hold the power to restore the veil. But she's not the only one searching for it. Shadowy figures and twisted beings seek the Heart for their own dark purposes.
As Naomi races against time, she'll have to navigate a city filled with secrets, trust unlikely allies, and confront the wonders and wraiths that lurk in both worlds. The fate of Silverbridge and perhaps all reality rests in her hands.

The Return of Naomi Blackwood
The Return of Naomi Blackwood Supernatural. Seductive. Vengeful. When Naomi Blackwood rises from her grave in the heart of New Orleans, the clock in her gold pocket watch begins to tick again-for the first time since the moment of her death in the 1800s. Her resurrection wasn't an accident. It was a trigger. Human blood spilled across her grave, awakening her from eternal sleep and setting something ancient in motion. Naomi doesn't remember who killed her or why, but she's certain of one thing: she wasn't meant to stay dead. Now she roams a world she doesn't recognize, wrapped in mystery, power, and an old hunger for answers. But she's not the only one stirred by her return. Her awakening has rippled through the supernatural underworld-unearthing forces that were never meant to rise. Old powers are watching. Some want her restored. Others want her silenced. Then there's Ivy-a modern woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to Naomi's long-lost love. But Ivy is no echo of the past. She's sharp, skeptical, and entirely her own. As the two women unravel the mystery behind Naomi's death and the strange magic pulling them together, something deeper sparks between them-something Naomi hasn't felt in over a century. Naomi was brought back for a reason. But to find out why, she'll have to uncover the truth about her past, face the darkness that's followed her into the present, and decide whether she's here for revenge, redemption... or something far more dangerous.Complete
The Forsaken Spire
A single, towering city rises from a vast, lifeless wasteland-a remnant of an ancient war that shattered the world. The Spire is surrounded by a powerful storm barrier, keeping the horrors outside at bay. It is said that beyond the storm, the land is overrun by Wraithborn-once-humans mutated into relentless, armored behemoths that feed on the energy of the living. The city's elite defenders, known as the Stormguard, wear specialized gauntlets that allow them to channel the energy of the storm itself, generating electrical blades and explosive force to combat the Wraithborn. Their training is brutal, as only those who can withstand the gauntlet's power without being consumed by it survive. When a young Stormguard recruit uncovers an ancient map hinting at a second, hidden city beyond the storm, everything they thought they knew about their world is thrown into question. Are they truly the last survivors? Or has the Spire's ruling council been keeping a terrible secret for generations?Complete
Winding Dawn (Dusk Series - Book 9) (Hiatus till August)
Eliza Lovell has lived a dangerous life, inducted into the hunter organization as a child and hunting vampires since she could walk. Though she wouldn't say she was unhappy. Nothing was more satisfying than sinking her spell-forged blades into the monsters that stalked and terrorized human kind. What she did was a service. It gave her purpose to get up in the morning and sound sleep at night. That was until she met her match with a deceptively alluring vampire named Ezra, and the world around her twists in new and dangerous ways. Vampire corpses begin to surface around town, drained of their blood, and the fingers are pointed at the hunter organization. Eliza had nothing to do with such grotesque displays of depravity, and neither did the hunters, but she doesn't like the sins of others painted on her back. To end the violence and to clear her name, she embarks on a journey to root out the evil poisoning her city. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Alec de Fluer is new to his role as a leader of the Fleurs, but peacekeeping has been in his blood since he was a child. When others fought, he sought to ease their quarrels and help them find peace, as he did now in the tumultuous society that was rebuilding before him. Someone is draining vampires of their blood and hanging them up for display, but there is more to it than just hate. Remnants of Copse magic linger at the dump sites, powerful yet foreign. Though Alec is no longer a Copse, it falls on him to clear his former family's name, alongside his mate Idus and some more unconventional allies.

Now, as her hunger grows and her heart tangles with the very creature who may destroy her, she'll face the ultimate question: fight the darkness that claims her... or surrender to the blood calling her home.
