Learning to be a living reaper is hard enough, but discovering your own father captures other paranormal beings to experiment on for the government? It’s something Ella Banks is trying to come to terms with. She’s starting to hate him a little because he’s not about to retire from the military, and she’s not about to change her mind that what he’s doing is just plain wrong.

This fact becomes even more apparent when a dragon shifter goes missing in town and the sheriff shows up to question Ella about her father’s comings and goings. She’s all but certain her dad took the shifter, and it’s tearing her apart. Should she betray her father, or should she stand up for the paranormal community? She’s at a loss as to what to do.

Before she can even begin to figure it out, she’s attacked in her home, and Eli, her Guardian Angel, starts to think her father’s superiors suspect Ella is something more than human.

And then there’s the guy who seems to have taken an interest in her. He’s cute, a football player, and a shifter. Another complication.

It’s all just a little much to deal with, and Ella decides tackle one thing at a time. First on the agenda is investigating what really happened to the dragon shifter, but along the way, her sister falls into the line of fire.

And it’s up to Ella and Eli to find the answers…before everything falls apart.

So who am I?

Well, I’m the crazy girl with an imagination that never shuts up. I LOVE scary movies. My friends laugh at me when I scare myself watching them and tell me to stop watching them, but who doesn’t love to get scared? I grew up in a small town nestled in the southern mountains of West Virginia where I spent days roaming around in the woods, climbing trees, and causing general mayhem. Nights I would stay up reading Nancy Drew by flashlight under the covers until my parents yelled at me to go to sleep.

Now, I live in a small town in West Virginia where I entertain my niece and nephew and watch the cats get teased by the birds and laugh myself silly when they swoop down and then dive back up just out of reach. The cats start yelling something fierce…lol.

I love books, I love writing books, and I love entertaining people with my silly stories.

TEASERS:

Sage describing her depression: I didn’t deserve happiness. Those joys shouldn’t exist without my family’s and friend’s presence. I should have to endure more suffering for what I had done. I no longer pressed my memory to find out what I was guilty of. It was a blur, a blip in my mind, but it was there. I felt it, and I needed to suffer for it.

Sage, when her dark side appears, describing her feeding: From his wanting mouth, I began to inhale his essence, his spirit. It was exhilarating and decadent. I was filled with what was flowing and still, energetic and peaceful, awe-inspiring and banal. The dichotomies fit like two puzzle pieces. There was not one without the other. This was the only moment that existed. It was completeness.
