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

ZANDER WATCHED THE THOUGHTS flit across my face, patiently waiting for a response. Oh yeah. He'd thanked me for saving him.


"I think we saved each other," I finally replied. "When I heard you above me in the cabin, it was the happiest moment of my life. I didn't think anyone would find me, and if you did, I worried what you and Peter would do." I stalled there, wondering if I had said too much.


"I didn't tell my brother everything that happened." 


Zander smiled. "He thinks you're a siren."


I stopped before I repeated myself again. He was looking expectantly at me. I chuckled.


I took the bait. "O-kaaay ... What's a siren?"


"Wait," I said. "Dante mentioned sirens, I think." That brought a scowl to Zander's face. "He also told me about akharus and usemis."


"Just akharu and usemi. You don't say the 's.'"
