Vancouver author Lili St. Crow--better known as urban fantasy writer Lilith Saintcrow--is very excited about the recent release of her newest YA novel entitled Jealousy. Jealousy is the third book in her paranormal romance series for teens, with two more to follow. Previous titles include Strange Angels and Betrayals.
Meet Dru Anderson. Night Hunter. Knife Thrower. Heart Breaker. Though only sixteen, Dru knows all about things that go bump in the night: werewulfen, suckers, gator-spirits, chupacabra, ghosts, zombies, and vampires. Her own father was a Hunter, ridding the world of evil creatures that stalked the night, until he himself became a zombie and had to be put down. Now she's all alone, except for two guys--best friend Graves, who also happens to be a werewolf, and Christophe, an enigmatic djamphir--who are vying for her attention. But will their battle for Dru's heart get in the way of her survival?
In Book #3, "Dru is safely ensconced at the Schola--the largest djamphir training facility on the continent. If she survives her training as a svetocha, she will take her place in the Order, holding back the vampires and protecting humans oblivious to the darker side of their world. But even in the Schola, she finds a pervasive web of lies and betrayals closing around her. Her mentor Christophe is missing, her almost-boyfriend Graves is acting weird, and someone very high up in the Order won't stop until he has tasted her blood and silenced her heart." Synopsis provided by the author and Razorbill/Penguin Books.
The Strange Angels series is a supernatural heart-stopper full of fast-paced action, suspense, and paranormal romance. But readers soon discover this is also a tale of self-doubt, self-discovery, and survival in the face of evil. The author has created a main character who is tough as nails on the outside, but who remains vulnerable and very human in her heart.
Lilith Saintcrow is the author of over 20 urban fantasy/paranormal romance novels with shorter works appearing in a half dozen anthologies. Fans will be excited to learn that she is currently "juggling two new books, and is about to start revision on a third." Born in New Mexico, she now lives in Vancouver, WA, with her children, a houseful of cats, and assorted other strays.
