Synopsis:
College junior Ariel Richmond is working on year three of Project Normalcy.
Her house reeks of keggers past and her bestie is just a slight bit vulgar. But the thing is—they both aid in making life refreshingly uneventful.
So much for hard-earned mediocrity when Luca Grinaldi appears on the scene.
Luca’s sudden presence on campus is hard to ignore. Those bright eyes act like a beacon to unsuspecting females, and with features like his, he’s got to be moonlighting for GQ. Luca hopelessly captivates Ariel with his confidence and charisma, but the mysteries surrounding him make him nearly untouchable. And just when Ariel grows close enough to unlock his secrets, a tragic event sends her life in a downward spiral.
That steady life is no longer an option and allies quickly become scarce. The mysterious Luca seems to be the only one willing to help her—but with that trust comes the burden of his secrets. He has a dark mission of otherworldly proportions, and is willing to sacrifice as many lives as it takes to see it completed.
Gone are the days of simply maintaining normalcy, and if Ariel isn’t cautious with her trust, so soon may be her future.

The Crimson Hunt Excerpt
We sat in peace, watching the water.
Buoys bobbed in and out of the waves. And a white wooden lighthouse shined a
rotating spotlight in the distance. The Earth seemed to stop in that moment,
the night sky both soothing and tranquil.
Nothing and no one could break our
serenity here. I felt millions of miles away from the party. I didn’t want to
go back. I just wanted to take in my surroundings with him by my side.
Luca’s gaze veered from the water and
focused on me. “Ariel, may I ask you question? A personal question?”
I was surprised by his request. But
with the peacefulness of that moment calming me, I would have told him
anything. “Yeah.”
He looked up at the sky. “What is it
you dream about when you think of your future?”
I was taken back by the question, but
recovered quickly. “I don’t know. I guess that I’ll be happy, wherever I am.”
He glanced back my way.
“Isn’t that what anyone wants?” I
asked.
My answer sent a smile to his lips.
“What about you? What do you dream
about?”
The lights of the sky took away his
gaze again. “I dream about many things. So many they cannot be touched by a
single answer.”
His response held a bit of sadness I didn’t understand. He
looked back at me, and something in his stricken expression made me feel like
he wanted to say more, but didn’t know how.
