Blurb
Hyde spent years hiding from his past, until a vampire thief, all charm and wit, wandered into the village and pulls him out of his haze.
Werewolf Hyde Walker hasn’t been home in six years. He keeps the past buried deep, sharing nothing but what he writes in his journal. All he has now is a village he hates, a witch obsessed with necromancy, and a job he never asked for.
Vampire Rune Brightbold hasn’t seen his family in five years. Trapped in a criminal job with a clan he didn’t want, he finally gets a way out; by getting arrested by Hyde, who’d rather help than punish.
They become inseparable. A mutual interest gets them prying into each other’s pasts and pushing the other to go home.
But going back means facing everything they ran from: the violent night Hyde tried to forget, the werewolves who killed his grandfather, the gang Rune betrayed, and the families they left behind.
Apparently, the dead don’t plan on staying that way. And this isn’t the first time their bloodlines have crossed.
A queer werewolf-vampire romantic fantasy.

Author's Note
This was the first book that I ever published, and I am learning how I can and want to continue doing so as I go. In other words, this is my trial run before I figure out a polished publishing process that works for me. Other authors would probably advice me to let this one go and try again with the next book or series, but I love this story and these characters too much for that. Once this trilogy is finished, I'll have figured out how to do this for my following works.
