The Dead of Cypress Creek: A Young Adult Paranormal Romance
The Dead of Cypress Creek: A Young Adult Paranormal Romance
Most love stories end with the grave.
This one begins there.
Seventeen-year-old Vivian Ports has always felt more at home among the dead. For years, she’s tended to the graves of Cypress Creek Cemetery alongside her father, the groundskeeper. Among the quiet gravestones, the dead are predictable. Peaceful.
Until someone starts digging them up.
When a grave robber begins terrorizing the cemetery, Vivian fights to protect her home. Soon, she finds herself on a collision course with a two-hundred-year-old Union soldier who shouldn’t be alive--Jesse Britten, an attractive enigma in a Civil War uniform.
The two become unlikely allies as they strive to keep the grave robber at bay and discover the reason behind Jesse’s second chance at life.
Soon, a romance blooms that shakes the defenses Vivian has built since her mother’s death.
But Jesse’s not the only undead soldier stalking the cemetery...
A story for fans of Twilight who still ache for small-town settings, undead love interests, and romances that defy death.
