Liz Baker Series

Saddled with the knowledge that she's not only a half-vampire, but also expected to be some kind of supernatural warrior to battle evil, Liz Baker--34 year old small town bar owner--would rather life went back to normal, choosing to ignore her destiny instead. She survived murdering a vampire lover, being possessed by a spirit of her ancestor in order to destroy a wendigo, and even finding out that her ghostly mother is in love with the attorney in charge of her newly acquired fortune. But will she survive finding out that she has eleven half-vampire brothers and sisters? Even with Chad at her back, and an ex-military werewolf pilot giving them defensive pointers, Liz simply wants to go back to normal. What ever normal is now. How will she ever find normal again though, what with a demon haunting her waking hours and a vampire trying to pull her into his paranormal army of offspring?

Vampires are real, and she's been promised to one by her non-existent biological father. Does she have what it takes to defeat a monster who has control of her mind, emotions, and desire? Liz Baker, a small town bar owner in north Georgia, thought it would be a normal evening of sex in a cemetery with her longtime beau, Rick, until she spots someone in the distance. And then all normality in her world ceased to exist. After several murders in her small town of Tremmel Crossing, Liz comes to the realization that the murderer is coming after her, and he’s more dangerous than any human could possibly be. Vampires are real! And she's one of them? Liz can't grasp the realization of her parentage, or the fact that her biological father—a man she's never met—offered her up to another vampire to claim as his own. It's only after the monster comes for her that she learns of her own unique powers. However, the vampire sent to claim her has powers of his own, most importantly the power to control her mind, emotions, and desires. She wants him, needs him, her entire body aches for him. Against all that, she must fight back to save the lives of her friends and loved ones. Only death will release her from Marcus’s powerful hold, but who will die first? Does she have the strength to do what has to be done? Time for Death is the first book in this urban fantasy series set in the mountains of north Georgia. Liz is a strong leading woman with all the fears, doubts, and tears that come along with making life-changing decisions for herself and others.

I thought life would get back to normal after I offed Marcus. I wanted adventure, but not the kind that could kill me with the glimmer of an idea. Yeah, he was a god in bed, but what fun would that have been if I never felt my own feelings and thoughts again? Now I'm surrounded by more monsters. I somehow knew there couldn't be just vampires in the world, but a girl can hope can't she? Oh well, that's not how it works in the real world. Adele's estate is gorgeous, much bigger than I'm accustomed to, and it turns out to be an excellent headquarters once Cole McIntosh--Wendigo Extraordinaire--shows up and demands my services. Hell, I don't even know how to use the powers I supposedly have and this bastard wants me to reverse a gypsy curse. It's not my problem he's a dumb ass and got himself split in two. I happen to like his better half anyway. He makes a great sandwich! Now Rick's pissed at me, Chad's looking as smoking hot as ever, and I have a handful of staff, friends, and my new high-class lawyer helping out...but will I be ready when Cole comes knocking at the front gate?

Liz Baker always saw herself as a restless bar owner in her small town. She didn't want the white picket fence, two kids, husband, and a dog. Oh, no. Liz wanted more. It didn't matter what, just more. Now she has more, and it's not as fun as she'd hoped. Not only does Liz have to deal with monsters, demons, and being a half-vampire daughter to evil, but now her ex-love has announced his speedy wedding to another woman and wants Liz's help. However, Liz steps in to more than just tending bar when she agrees to help out at the reception.

On the way to her Atlanta estate, the limo carrying Liz and her friends is slammed into by a random SUV on the interstate. During the aftermath of the crash, Monty whisks the injured group off to a nearby ranch run by some of his trusted friends. While everyone is recovering from their injuries, Jake and Mary Matherson ask Liz for her help in rescuing their daughter from a nearby mad man who previously abducted her for his own twisted reasons. Liz reluctantly agrees after hearing there’s a vampire helping the enemy. Who could this vampire be? Is it Gregory trying to mastermind another attempt at swaying Liz to his side? But how could he even know she’d be at the Mathersons’ ranch? After a destructive ambush directed by an unknown traitor, Jake Matherson is captured and the rest of his group looks to Liz and Monty to rescue not only him and his daughter, but to also destroy the enemy and find out the spy’s identity. Will Liz be able to bring Jake and his daughter back safely, or will the unknown traitor and vampire trip her plans up before they even get started?

Liz Baker has been through a lot of craziness in the last year of her life. Monsters are constantly climbing out of the woodworks and it seems that she's always the only one who can stop them. Now her closest friends are missing and all she wants to do is find them. That is, until her own demon takes over and causes nothing but trouble in every aspect of Liz's life. Demon Dolly does everything under the sun to create chaos for Liz. Lots of one night stands with all the wrong men lead into a few illegal activities, as well as the deterioration of Liz's beloved bar, Athena's Ambrosia. Thank goodness Liz has friends in her corner who know the difference between the real Liz and her demonic imposter. Or do they? Will Liz be able to rid herself of the monster inside? Or will she finally give it up and fade into nothingness?

Liz Baker is tired of her supernatural life. She simply wants to settle down with her friends and enjoy the life of a rich woman. She has fought, and defeated, so many villains in the past year, but it never feels like enough. She sold her beloved bar and moved to the Atlanta estate she was bequeathed by a family friend just to get away from everything, and it still wasn’t enough. When Liz wakes up strapped to a hospital bed with no recollection of how she got there, she realizes her supernatural problems have begun again, and this time she’s pissed! A lost friend returns to assist in her escape, and inform her that she has been missing for weeks! Not only had she been abducted, but important members of her family are also missing. Now Liz has to figure out how to save her people from the ultimate monster, even if that means sacrificing herself in the process!

Arriving home from captivity wasn't as smooth as Liz had hoped. There's a tension in the air. New people are running the basement command center. And all of her friends are in terrible moods. However, none of that matters right now. Their goal is to find a way to destroy The Master, and prevent his plans of destroying the world as we know it.

I hate this! How do I always get myself into these situations? Monsters coming after me left and right, but this time I've made promises I can't back out of. I'll do anything to protect my family, even if it breaks my heart and crushes my soul to keep them safe. Heartbroken by the loss of her family, Liz Baker must settle into the agreement she made with The Master. As she wallows in sadness, self-doubt, and defeat, Liz needs to figure out how to exist without those she loves, while training to become her captor's One True Mistress in his scheme to destroy the world. Suffering through a millennium of death, destruction, and the evolution of the human race, The Master has grown fierce about the rules set by his ancestors. He and his men are determined to end the insanity that is “modern day” and create the foretold heaven on Earth, but to do that he must find the One True Mistress. This woman will help bring an end to everything and rebuild the world in his image. After numerous failed women in his past, he knows that woman is Liz Baker. After all, she is the daughter of the only vampire with the ability to create offspring. She has to be special... right?
