The Night Gilbert Died
Where grief becomes a doorway, and love refuses to die.
Clara Whitmore thought her love story ended the night Gilbert died in her arms. But when grief lingers long enough, it becomes something else—something hollow, something hungry.
Now, shadows move where light should be. A symbol etches itself into the walls. And Gilbert... he's not resting.
With a mysterious funeral director watching too closely and an old friend bearing warnings wrapped in silence, Clara is about to uncover a truth darker than death itself: some souls don’t pass on.
They wait.
They remember.
They return.
The story of a vampire who doesn't want to be one.
He devises a plan to cure himself of this malady, but without her knowing it, he is a danger to the young woman who is in love with him. She is in his thrall because her blood is his cure.
He does love her, but, when a man loves, he may not do so with his heart.
Fortunately, when a vampire is here, a witch is near, the young woman's only protection, as long as she believes and obeys.
And where there are witches, there are ghosts.
Everyone knows a hungry vampire is no one's friend...
