“Wait for my report. The Constabulary will take it from here and keep you updated. You do your job and we’ll do ours,” Dr. Doolittle finally answers my question. Even though I don’t care for the answer. My job sucks.
“Will you have information for me by morning?”
Doolittle shrugs. “Probably earlier. From everything I’m seeing here, it’s pretty straightforward.”
Glad it is to someone. I’ll have Jackie join the investigation. She has a natural talent for solving crimes.
Red shrugs from her jacket and hands it to me before she yanks her dress over her head. The air around her ripples and in seconds, a wolf stands next to me in place of her. I snatch her boots from the ground and shove everything into my shoulder bag.
Red whines low in her throat and sticks her nose in the air, tasting the different scents swirling around us.
I turn to one of the constabulary officers. “I’m going to send Jackie to you. She can help on the investigation while I deal with the six hundred calls I need to make. Doc, I’ll expect your report in the morning. Red, I’ll meet you at Hatter’s.”
Not even the excuse of Fae murder is enough to keep me away from there tonight. I tell myself it’s because I need Bo and Hatter’s help, but I know better. It’s because I need to be there, safe, connected, happy. Tonight, I need to remember beauty and magic. Even at the cost of suffocating crowds and mind-numbing chatter.
Red licks my hand and trots away into the shadows.
Doolittle stands, sadness lining her face as she stares down at Ginger. “I don’t envy you.”
Right now, I don’t envy either one of us.

A year ago, monsters crawled out of the shadows and took over the world, enslaving the humans who survived.
Monet Black is part of the Uprising, a resistance movement brewing throughout all the monster-controlled cities. She spends her days dancing for monsters and her nights hunting them.
But when the sorceress who killed her parents shows up, Monet is no longer willing to fight from the shadows. No matter the cost to her, or those around her, she’s determined to make the sorceress pay for what she did.
Monet, her brother, and her best friend begin their quest to take down the sorceress, little understanding the power she holds.
Joined by the annoying new ally with laughing eyes and a charming smile, they're more determined than ever to track the sorceress down...even if she leads them straight to hell.
Available now here.
Book 2 will be out in 2018
