Reap the Shadow, Slay the Light
I don’t know what I am, but I’m not human…and neither are the creatures that killed my mom. Running will only carry me so far because there’s a darkness within me, ready to destroy me, and a burning light, begging for escape. It’s the light that screams to my pursuers and works them into a frenzy. Though the darkness might kill me, releasing the light might kill us all…
WarWolf: Half breed
Ema fights to suppress her werewolf emotions and deny her warlock powers. It isn’t easy being a half-breed, but she is determined to slide through life unnoticed by either group. When the warlock leaders team up with humans to force paranormal registration, Ema believes she must choose between her two unwanted worlds. An unexpected companion shows her not all emotions are bad, and power has its benefits.
Moved
“Werewolves are real but the legends are wrong…”
It’s the secret Gillian’s father has tried to keep from her and the reason he’s so overprotective. But, he goes too far when he exiles Gillian to a house in the middle of nowhere. Her new landlord, Racer, is more like a cute jailer who has strict orders to keep her safely trapped.
Battle lines between independence and obligation are drawn as Gillian decides just how far she’s willing to go to win back her freedom. And Racer needs to decide what he’s willing to endure to keep her close.

will kill her if they find her light.
Excerpt:
I didn’t know he’d entered the room
until he tried to say something to me. I
didn’t wait to hear what. Instead, with
hands curled into fists, I came up swinging.
I wanted to punch him in the face to knock the whistle right out of him,
but my right hand landed solidly against his chest. I almost stopped, surprised at my
misjudgment. My swing had been really
off. I’d never noticed we weren’t the
same size. It just made me angrier that
he was taller…by a lot. So, instead of
stopping, I continued to rain blows on his chest.
He stood still, taking it all with
silence.
Then, like a burst balloon, the
rage left me. For several moments, I just
stood there staring at my fists still rested against his chest. Neither of us moved as my breathing
slowed. Drained and shaking, I lifted my
tear-streaked face to his.
“I will hate them until I die. Someday, I might hate you too...but not
today.”
His face held no judgment. He opened his arms and pulled me against the
chest I’d just pummeled.
“I know,” he whispered against my
hair.
