Dazzled by the beautiful Keilani, Jim volunteers to help hunt for an ancient evil roaming the ivied halls. Can a mild-mannered academic find his inner demon hunter and a way into Keilani’s heart? Or will a supernatural predator with an insatiable hunger destroy them first?
About L.A. Kelley
L.A. Kelley lives in Florida where the heat and humidity have driven them all slightly mad. She's easy to spot as she's the palest person around. She avoids the sun and loves air conditioned comfort. On the plus side, her skin will never look like badly laid roofing shingles. Her favorite writing genre is fantasy, but she reads just about anything except technical instruction manuals. All her stories have fantasy, humor, romance, and a touch of sass. In her spare time she enjoys phoning in Bigfoot sightings to the Florida Department of Fish and Wildlife. They are heartily sick of hearing from her. |
