What if the one person who could solve the crime was also the one thing everyone feared?
In a city where shadows walk and secrets bleed, Grae Bishop is a reluctant detective with a gift he never asked for: he's a werewolf. But he doesn't hunt prey - he hunts truth. With heightened senses that can read fear like fingerprints and guilt like a scent, Grae uses his curse to solve the crimes others can't.
When a string of brutal murders threatens to tear apart the fragile peace between the human and supernatural underworlds, Grae is forced into a tense alliance with Detective Mariya Knox - a skeptic with a badge and a grudge. The deeper they dig, the stranger the case becomes: victims without wounds, crime scenes scrubbed clean, and evidence that vanishes into static.
But the real horror isn't the bodies left behind - it's what the killer is trying to awaken. Something ancient. Something buried in Grae's own blood.
As old enemies resurface and new monsters emerge, Grae must confront not just the beast within, but the haunting memory of the woman he failed to save - a memory that might not be his alone.
Silver and Bone is a noir-laced supernatural thriller where loyalty is a liability, trust is a trap, and monsters wear the most familiar faces.

Her Tyrant Alpha [EXCERPT]
*Available in full on Radish or Patreon!* She was born in fire. He was forged in ice. The clash will scorch them both. After a disease wipes out all human life on earth, the world is left to the werewolves. As packs organize and claim territory, an opportunity arises to collect information from a Viking pack headed by the dangerous alpha, Nolan Frosaker. Ashelin jumps at the chance to go undercover, but only partly because she wants to contribute to the mission. The Viking King intrigues her, and she has unique talents that will get her close to him. What she doesn't anticipate is Nolan's own unique talents, and how quickly she desires to be completely at his mercy. Warnings: This story is rated mature for a reason. Rated NC-17 for very intense bdsm power play in an environment that wouldn't be safe if it were humans not in fiction. NOTE: This story takes place in the Bloodlines universe, but can be read as a standalone. If you're curious about the apocalypse and want more of Ashelin and her previous pack, check out Bloodlines Vol. 1 for the first entry in that series and info on reading the rest!Complete

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.

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.
