When the heroes are creatures, who is the enemy?
I look down at my hands. Strings. From my fingertips are strings. I can’t see them, but I have them, without question, and tied at every end is a noose.
Sarah was created to destroy deathless creatures. But now, with the ghosts of her predecessors trapped in her mind, she is unraveling. Dark ribbons of ideas curl around her heart and ribcage, urging her to fulfill an ancient duty. The death she already promised to grant to her beloved vampire, Alex, may not be enough. As she resists, the very water that once brought her comfort seems to pulse with new, cosmic dangers.
By all accounts, Sarah should be the last of her kind. But she's been lied to. Another still exists, hiding between life and death, cautiously watching and whispering in a voice only Sarah hears. If she wants their help, she will need to earn their trust.
Against her fears, Sarah will take Alex across oceans to reunite him with his estranged maker. But what starts as a plea for shelter unfolds into something much more complex. Wounds persist. Alex has changed. Together, they have cracked the careful spiderweb of the vampire world that his maker holds dear.
As the boundaries between life, death, and the divine crumble, allegiances will be questioned. Can a violent test of self-control earn the trust of Sarah's ghostly sibling and the protection of Alex's maker? Can Sarah tame the voices in her head? And must their path to salvation be paved with more blood?
Haunted Creatures begins immediately after the first book in this series. It is a paranormal dark urban fantasy written in a crisp, imagist style. It weaves together intense gothic romance, lurking cosmic horror, and philosophical melancholy.

When you can't die, how will you live?
We lie forehead to forehead, eyes so close that they are all we see, transfixed in our morbid codependency.
"I’m glad you found me," he eventually whispers, breaking the silence.
"Me too."
He kisses me gently. I kiss back, rough and desperate, pulling his head against mine, wishing my kiss could bind him to me and erase his desire to leave this world.
Twenty-seven-year-old Sarah Woodward died on a Tuesday. Crushed and thrown into the icy waters of Seattle’s Elliott Bay in a horrific bus crash, she should have stayed the fifteenth victim. But something else had plans for her. She resurfaced with silver hair, a flickering reflection, and a terrifying new reality: she can’t truly die, she remembers places she's never been, and she can resurrect the dead.
Struggling to accept her immortality, Sarah finds Alex Smith, a wealthy and weary self-exiled vampire who witnessed her resurrection. Exhausted by the burdens of his immortality, Alex is searching for his final death. They are fused together by their fates and fall fast into a dark equilibrium. But when a taste of Sarah’s blood restores his heartbeat and grants him temporary humanity, Alex will ask something of Sarah that will either be his redemption or his undoing.
As Sarah and Alex chart a deeply unconventional path, ancient vampires and a secret society interrupt their hopes. The society has been waiting generations for Sarah to return and fulfill her true, devastating purpose. Determined to protect the vampire she loves and stop a murderous, greedy leader, Sarah must fully embrace her dangerous powers over life and death, even if it means losing Alex forever.
Deathless Creatures is a gritty, dark urban fantasy paranormal thriller. It combines gothic romance with elements of supernatural horror and lush imagery.
