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

"You know him?" asked Maverick in surprise.


I huffed out a deep breath as we heaved another dead body off his wing.


"Yes," I said, giving him a watery smile. "He's my brother."


Maverick stared at me slack-jawed. After tonight I didn't think anything could surprise him. "You're kidding," he muttered.


"Yeah, I was going to tell you about him. Turns out, the other sharum guy was my biological father. Is," I corrected, reminding myself that if they took him, he must still be alive.


"Yeah, I know," I nodded. "Just when you thought it couldn't get any weirder."


I examined Thaddie, who still struggled with consciousness. "Let's carry him to a brighter area. It will be easier to help him there."
