Tru Parker didn’t know how ideal her life was until everything normal and safe evaporated in an instant. With her mother gone and nightmares plaguing her sleep, it takes the iron will of her best friend to help her fit in again at school. But that’s hard to do when supernaturals start popping up all around her and she learns that one of them killed her mother. Even worse, she realizes she might not be human herself. 

Zander Hughes doesn’t know exactly why he came to Scotts Valley, but when he sees Tru for the first time, he suspects that she’s the reason. Their connection is instant and electrifying. He may not be like anyone in his supernatural family, but he knows that what he feels for Tru is impossible for someone like himself—unless everything he’d been taught was wrong. Despite their mutual distrust, when danger comes for Tru, he will do everything in his power to protect her.

Unlikely alliances form around Tru, and together they work to debunk supernatural lore and decipher a prophecy that places Zander and herself at the center of it.

The True Nature Series

WITHOUT GIVING IT A thought, I grabbed a knife from the butcher block and headed out the back door. I walked warily around the side of the house to check if the gate was open. It was closed. I stepped cautiously to the other side of the house to a covered area where we kept our trash cans. The knife was trembling in my hand, but I moved forward anyway. Nothing. Where had Zander gone?


"Zander!" I called out, my voice cracking. A growl vibrated through the air, behind me, behind our fence. Something was on the other side. I knew the Jenkins didn't have a dog and automatically backed away.


"Tru! Look out!" In the next moment, Zander was leaping over our fence and toward me. That alone was confusing, because our fence was hecka tall, and I didn't think even our school's track team could leap that high. Bewildered, I gripped the knife and twisted around to run away. I didn't see the water hose stacked in front of me and tripped.
