Detective Eden Thorne hunts monsters in the shadows of Vareth—but her latest case drags her into a world of ancient cults, forbidden magic, and one infuriatingly handsome aristocrat with ties to a legendary nightmare.

I left laundry on the couch while I made dinner last night. When I went to fold it before bed, I found an entire slice of pizza shoved in the pile…. It was a mom moment reminding me why I wrote my PB about a hungry laundry monster. Parents will empathize, kids will giggle, editors need this 👀
