Demon on Sale for $1.99








 My publisher is definitely excited about the upcoming release of Hyde, the final installment in the Dark Musicals Trilogy. She's so excited, she decided to put Demon on sale too for only $1.99! Grab this deal exclusively on amazon!








Purchase










When Justyn and Rebecca set off for the New York School of Performing
Arts, they think their dreams are about to come true. To their dismay,
they aren’t in high school anymore, and the competition is steep.
Rebecca must compete against accomplished singers for a role in the
production of Demon Barber, including a stunning Gothic diva with her
sights set on Justyn.

It doesn't help that things keep disappearing from their apartment or
that Rebecca's father refuses to accept that Justyn is an essential part
of her life. Yet, all this seems minimal in comparison to the serial
rapist terrorizing the campus.

Consumed by fear and obsessed with revenge, Rebecca and Justyn start
living the story of Sweeney Todd—both on and off the stage.







Don't forget to join the Hyde release party to keep up with all the news!

Phantom on Sale for $.99!!!!






To celebrate the upcoming release of Hyde, Book 3 is the Dark Musicals
Trilogy, Phantom is now on sale for only $.99 exclusively on Amazon! The
price will never be this low again, so grab your copy today!






Purchase




Phantom, Dark Musicals Book #1



The “Phantom” was a musical phenomenon that Rebecca had always found
enchanting. She had no idea that her life was about to mirror the play
that was her obsession. When her high school drama club chooses
“Phantom” as their annual production, Rebecca finds herself in the
middle of an unlikely love triangle and the target of a sadistic stalker
who uses the lines from the play as their calling card.



Rebecca lands the lead role of Christine, the opera diva, and like her
character, she is torn between her two co-stars—Tom the surfer and
basketball star who plays the lovable hero, and Justyn, the strangely
appealing Goth who is more than realistic in the role of the tortured
artist.



Almost immediately after casting, strange things start to happen both on
and off the stage. Curtains fall. Mirrors are shattered. People are
hurt in true phantom style. They all seem like accidents until Rebecca
receives notes and phone calls that hint at something more sinister. Is
Justyn bringing to life the twisted character of the phantom? Or in real
life are the roles of the hero and the villain reversed? Rebecca
doesn’t know who to trust, but she knows she’s running out of time as
she gets closer and closer to opening night. Only when the mask is
stripped away, will the twenty first century phantom finally be
revealed.
