About this ebook

"Estrada scrutinized the tats, wondering how far the ink extended beneath the worn leather kilt, and just how painful it would be to have your genitals tattooed. He knew about ink—wore the black lacy wings of an angel on his back. Her feathers extended across his shoulders and down his glutes. That ink had broken more than his skin."

 

When a renegade archaeologist discovers an ancient Egyptian artifact in Scotland, Dylan McBride's world implodes. Imprisoned for murder, he summons his friend, the Wicca Priest, Estrada, to solve the crime and set him free. Unable to turn down Dylan's cry for help, Estrada leaves Michael, his melancholy lover, in Canada where he gets targeted by a vicious vampire bent on revenge.

 

Estrada faces his inner demons. After playing vampire for years, Michael Stryker confronts a real vampire in a life-changing showdown. And, sweet, virginal, Dylan McBride, faces his greatest fears in one of Scotland's most terrifying prisons. Who will survive? #LGBTQ


A fast-paced murder mystery spiked with edgy urban fantasy that opens portals into the realm of witches, faeries, and vampires.

 

"Hawkin's tight, well-paced writing and knowledge of Celtic myths—Robert Graves, The White Goddess—combines with multi-layered characters, lush language, and plot twists and turns, to draw the reader in. A seamless interweaving of myth and reality that appeals to our intellect and desire for vicarious adventure."—Blank Spaces

Author

W. L. Hawkin

W. L. Hawkin writes romantic adventures, often charged with “myth, magic, and mayhem” from her home in the Pacific Northwest. Her Hollystone Mysteries series features a coven of West Coast witches who solve murders using ritual magic and a little help from the gods. The books—To Charm a Killer, To Sleep with Stones, To Render a Raven, and To Kill a King—follow Estrada, a flawed magician and coven high priest as he endeavors to save his family and friends while sorting through his own personal issues. Her latest release, Lure: Jesse & Hawk is small-town romantic suspense set in the American Midwest, in the fictional town of Lure River.  Hawkin graduated from Trent University with a BA in Indigenous Studies. Wendy went on to study English literature at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, and then teach high school. She found her voice publishing poetry and Native Rights articles in Canadian news magazines and is now an  author/publisher at Blue Haven Press. For the past few years, Wendy has been a book reviewer for the Ottawa Review of Books. A member of the Federation of BC Writers and the Writers Union of Canada, she actively engages with readers and writers at conferences, and is represented by Creative Edge Publicity. As an intuitive writer, Wendy captures on the page what she sees (visual scenes) and hears (conversations) and allows her muses to guide her through the creative process. She needs to feel the energy of the land, so although she’s an introvert, in each book her characters go on a journey where she’s traveled herself. If you don’t find her at Blue Haven Press, she’s likely wandering the woods with her beautiful yellow dog.
