When the nerdy but adorable middle-manager finally asks her out for pizza one night, she's thrilled.

Lucy knows she can't simply abandon the man of her dreams to immortality as a bloodsucking nosferatu. She has to turn him back! But how?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Can yesterday’s demon be the hero of today?” **Yesterday’s Demon is book 3 in the Sharpest Kiss series, but it can be read as a stand-alone story.** She’s got a talking dog, a magic rock, a supernatural mystery to solve, and a hot friend determined to make her his. Can an ex-vampire girl find love and redemption after more than nine centuries of iniquity…or will her dark secret doom everything she’s ever longed for? Marta has a big secret. She may look like a teenager, but she’s really almost a thousand years old. For centuries, she existed as a vampire, but now she’s just a normal human girl again, stripped of all her supernatural powers and many of her memories. But whether she remembers it or not, she knows she used to be a monster. She did a lot of horrible things in her past. She’s determined to spend what’s left of her human life trying to make amends by helping other people in trouble, especially in cases where her knowledge of the paranormal might come in handy. When her friend Harris calls on her, asking for her help finding his college roommate’s missing sister, Marta agrees to open an investigation. Dark magic might be involved in the young girl’s disappearance, but Marta’s confident she can unravel the case; she knows a few spells herself, and she’s got an enchanted talking dog and a psychic stone to help her out. What worries her most is the brand-new set of human hormones raging through her system, making it next to impossible to keep things with Harris strictly platonic. Marta may have made the mistake of locking lips with Harris once or twice before, but she knows it would be wrong to ever let it happen again—and certainly to take things any further than that. Her past is just too ugly, and her new life is too bizarre and dangerous. Harris is better off staying far away from her. If only he didn’t seem so intent on doing just the opposite. And if only his piercing green eyes and sultry kisses weren’t so incredibly irresistible… MORE ABOUT THE BOOK: Yesterday’s Demon is a complete novel of 90,000 words. It is narrated in third person from Marta’s point of view. It is Book 3 in the Sharpest Kiss series but can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story.

He was raised by two parents that instilled strong moral values in him. Zeke instead began to favor the excitement of the street life. Legs, on the other hand, was a stunning beauty from a loving family that fell victim to the negative trappings of urban life. Their paths crossed as they were beginning to live a normal life. Legs and Zeke fell madly in love in only a short time. Their lust and desire for each became a priority. They decided to marry when a child was on the way. This began the drama that was their life. Keep an open mind as you relive their lives.The story is written with truth and detailed accounts of the many events that took place. They both found God and sought redemption through Jesus the Christ. Don't let the discomfort of their acts deter you from reading their entire story. Remember; they had to live through it too!
