The Hot Vampire Wants to Devour You

This month’s playlist is inspired by the vampires I’ve been writing lately.

 

The first is Kilgarrah Abaddon, a scarified vampire necromancer, who finds himself in London, paying off a debt to Heaven’s Fury when dozens of corpses rise from the Thames. He wasn’t expecting to find himself a boy.

Victorian Vampire Daddy is rolling out in my subscription (Night Library tier) and features a hefty dose of spice.

The second is Ransom, a Protean vampire, who can take the shape of whatever he likes. I’m still working him out, but he’ll feature in the Pirates of Siorai series. I’m currently writing book two.

The third is Taryn Macleod (below), the modern day vampire prince in my Ream exclusive serial, Earth Render (Cascade at Fever tier). This is a polyamorous romance suspense with four men and one woman (not reverse harem). I’m only a few episodes into this, but there has already been some sexy times between Taryn and his faithful vaewolf.

You can find my Ream subscription here.

Of Blood & Oil

This month’s playlist is inspired by my latest release, Of Blood & Oil, which is book three of my Not the Same River series.

It follows Violet as she goes from gobby orphan to treasured warrior in six books.

A hunted portrait. A twisted duke. An embarrassing crush.

When a hunted portrait arrives at the priory for safekeeping, Violet makes a disturbing discovery or two about her immortal neighbour. And an unwelcome one about herself.

As the resourceful Penhaligons try to figure out what’s so special about the painting, a sinister duke makes a bold move in his bid to claim it. But the painting is not the only thing he’s after.

Can Violet and the Penhaligons outwit the duke and bargain their way to victory? Or will they learn that they’re not the only ones with betrayal in mind?

This book features a vampire who doesn’t know where his trousers are, a stray nephilim, judgemental goats, and an MC who hasn’t quite got a handle on romance.

Happy listening!

Book 3 of Not the Same River comes fifteen months after the battle at the priory, when Violet’s day is ruined by her sister’s recklessness and panic on the London Underground.

Vicious. Hairy. Panic.

A hunted portrait. A twisted duke. An embarrassing crush.

When a hunted portrait arrives at the priory for safekeeping, Violet makes a disturbing discovery or two about her immortal neighbour. And an unwelcome one about herself.

Out Now! Secrets at the Door

Out Now! Secrets at the Door

 

The first book of the Tales from the Noctuary series is available now from all major online retailers. This series currently has four books written, each taking place in a different historical setting. This one features characters who can be found in the first two books of my Not the Same River series. If you’ve read them, you’ll recognise the Merryweather coven, Adam Castle in his younger days, and his friend Amos Blackmore.

Each book in the Tales from the Noctuary series can be read as a standalone.

The secrets aren’t at the door. They’re already in the house.

Betsy’s reluctance to lead the Merryweather coven puts her entire family in danger, and with an injured vampire showing up on their doorstep and a bloodborn harvest to resurrect, they can’t afford mistakes.

When the coven is targeted on neighbouring Castle land, the only reliable witness is a young girl found hiding in the family mausoleum. But the girl is not what she seems.

Lotus is a secret keeper with a bind on her tongue. When one of the Merryweathers finds her unconscious in the woods, Betsy helps Lotus unravel her tongue, slowly learning the terrible truth about what her coven has been harbouring for years.

This book features a fat, beekeeping lesbian vampire, a well-demon in need of a haircut, and romantic elements (f/f & m/nonbinary). Although this book is a standalone, it features characters from the Not the Same River series, so reading both will provide a richer experience.

Due to certain graphic elements, this is recommended for readers aged 18+
