Birth of the Vampire has launched!

Yes, you read that correctly. Birth of the Vampire, the first book in my new series, The Vanderlind Realm, is now available on Amazon.


Dorian is a vampire who doesn’t believe in love. Haley is a human who doesn’t believe in vampires. 

At seventeen, Haley Scott’s life is pretty miserable. She lives with her uncle in a small town where she has absolutely no friends and barely any social life. Haley knows for a fact that there are very few people on the planet who care if she lives or dies. 

Dorian Vanderlind is a vampire with a past he’s reluctant to face. He visits his cousin as a favor, only to find himself entangled in the enticements of the mortal world. 

What happens when these two are thrown together in the most complicated of circumstances? Find out in Birth of the Vampire ~ Book 1 in The Vanderlind Realm.

They are both smart and charming... But I am going to have to go full on geek and say Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He is, after all, an astrophysicist.

Geek Love

The other morning I was trying to summarize an article for my husband, but got hung up on pronouncing the word "paraphrasing". I said, "I don't remember exactly what he said so I'm paraphasing.... I mean I'm paraphasing... I mean para..."

That's when he quipped, "Set paraphrasers to stun."

Yes, we're geeks. But we found each other <3

Broom with a View - Launched!

Broom with a View has launched! I'm pleased with the cover. I think it turned out pretty and conveys the atmosphere of the story. The magical Ted Naifeh was my co-writer on this one and will contribute some original art in a week or two.

Here's the link on Amazon:

Broom with a View

And here's the blurb:

The threat of war between Witches and Vampires means England may no longer be safe for a young Witch. Hence, Miss Violet Popplewell is sent abroad under the watchful eye of her great-aunt Vera. Without so much as a bon voyage party, Violet finds herself a visitor to the city-state of X, a mysterious place where magic is used openly and Witches and Vampires live together in harmony. Or at least, they try to get along. Violet’s aunt is shocked to discover that there are Vampires staying at their pensione and alarmed to note that one of the undead is a rather handsome young man. 

An outburst of hostilities in X thrusts Violet into the young Vampire’s arms. And, much to her dismay, she realizes she may have accidentally bewitched him with a love charm. Are the emotions that the Vampire feels true passion or just a slip of the wand?

It turned out super cute and I'm excited for its maiden voyage (launch). Should be fun.
