Joleene Naylor is the author of the glitter-less Amaranthine vampire universe, a world where vampires aren't for children. Comprised of a main series, a standalone prequel, and several short story collections, she has plans to continue expanding with a trilogy and standalone novels. 
In her spare time, Joleene is a freelance book cover designer and for-fun photographer. She maintains several blogs, full of odd ramblings, and occasionally updates her website at JoleeneNaylor.com. In what little time is left, she watches anime, plays PokemonGo, and works on her crooked Victorian house in Villisca, Iowa. Between her husband, family, and pets, she is never lonely, in fact, quite the opposite. Should she disappear, one might look for her on a beach in Tahiti, sipping a tropical drink and wearing a disguise. 

Pulled into a world of darkness, Katelina's fate becomes intertwined with that of Jorick, a dark, enigmatic vampire. To stay by his side, she must navigate intrigue, terror and bloodshed as they are drawn from one battle to another. Dreams of peace seem elusive, and are complicated by mysterious vampires, old relics, and an ancient master. Join Katelina and Jorick in a world where vampires don't sparkle and night is eternal.

Amaranthine

Terror sliced through Katelina and left her legs watery. If it was Lilith outside their door then it wasn't Jorick she was stalking but-


Katelina choked on the idea. She backed down the hall and screamed silently for Samael. When no answer came, she shook herself. She needed to get Jorick!


She raced back toward her room and plowed into someone. They fell to the floor in a tangled heap. Katelina pulled away, ready to swing, when she recognized Sarah's furious face.


"Sarah!" she gasped out and fell back. "I...I saw her."


Her friend pulled to her haunches. "Her who?"


"I don't know. Lilith maybe. She looked ancient. Imagine a three hundred year old person. She's so old she doesn't even have hair."


Sarah's face hardened. "Let's get some answers."


She pulled to her feet, and Katelina jumped to stop her. "Are you crazy? If that's Lilith she has powers you can't imagine."
