A Little Ghostly Story
In a world where the dead refuse to rest and ghosts whisper louder than the living, Dante only ever wanted peace. He keeps his distance, hides behind cold manners and sharper words, and pretends that silence is enough. Even though ghosts always denied him that one simple pleasure. One bright day brought many changes. One of them being reckless, and far too curious for his own good, a young man who decided to annoy Dante more than the ghosts. What begins as irritation turns into something far more dangerous: understanding. And between the weight of the past, the stir of monsters, and the moments when the veil between worlds grows thin, Dante discovers that love, much like ghosts, is never gentle. A story about warmth finding its way through frost. A psychological romance about the living, the dead, and everything in between.

The Judgement Of Divinity (TMOE #2)
Usually when people die they are courteous enough to stay dead. As it turns out, several people associated with Lucius are lacking in the etiquette department, and when corpses start disappearing from graves it's just no laughing matter anymore. Reunited with more than one friend from his past, Lucius finds himself with more questions for every answer he receives. In his defense, undead vampires and secret, werewolf related orders will do that to you, and yet he is nowhere near figuring out what the Waste is going on beneath the surface of South Kerilia's population. He knows one thing for certain though: One organization holds the answers to all of his questions, and he knows just the person to interrogate. If only that person hadn't been Lucius' newly resurrected numbskull of a crush.Complete
