Bad Moon Rising
I’m Lily Dean, and all I want is a normal life.
Prom night is approaching, and I’m trying to build up the courage to ask my two best friends—Jackson and Orion, the dark and mysterious Bellua twins. We grew up next door to each other, and even though the rest of the town thinks they’re freaks because their parents were killed during some spooky occult ritual, I love hanging out with them.
But when their older brother Brooks shows up in town with his leather jacket, old Mustang, grumpy attitude, and a trunk full of monster-hunting supplies, my life goes from normal to terrifying in ten seconds flat.
It turns out, monsters are real. And they’re coming for me.
Prom night is about to get bloody.
Bad Moon Rising was originally published in the Beasts and Beauties anthology and serves as a prequel to the series.

Initially pursuing a path in political science and legal studies, she found herself unexpectedly drawn to storytelling, starting with a simple bet with her sister. That playful wager turned into The Darkness We Crave, her debut novel, which she self-published in 2018. To her surprise, the book quickly gained traction, becoming a hit in the indie author community after being promoted by a fellow author.
