Crimson Shadow

As his 18th birthday approaches, the only thing that Xander Stryker wishes for is death. Yet, he wakes up each morning, forced to go on living and remembering the image of his stepfather murdering his mother. Instead of dying, he is thrown into a supernatural world and offered a choice: Continue his sorry life or start anew. For Xander, the choice is obvious. In the new world, life is just as unforgiving. Horrors from his past lurk from the shadows. As they fuel a fresh legacy, Xander has to stand tall and show old monsters a stronger, better version of himself.

Xander has had it rough. And while the trials and tribulations of the young vampire's life have left him with a fiery rage, things are finally beginning to come together. Armed with his trusty revolvers, Yin and Yang, and a thirst for death and destruction, there is nothing that his expertise and fury can't stand against! Except the spellbinding Estella. Estella finally has her best friend back, and, despite her many years of training in the art of magic, it wasn't until recently that she discovered just how deep the paranormal world goes.

Stronger, faster, and more brutal than anything they’ve faced before, Xander and Marcus find themselves in a race to save a city that’s become a killing field with Xander’s name all over it...literally. It will take more than desperation and rage to put an end to this nightmare. Unfortunately, in Xander Stryker’s new life, nightmares have a tendency to fight back....

Xander Stryker thought he’d seen his fair share; thought there was nothing left to lose. He was wrong. Now, Xander finds himself living night-by-night in the forest with a pack of shape-shifters. It might not be much, but it’s all he has left. But even that, with the arrival of a ragtag group seeking his help, is put in jeopardy.

With a new clan, a new legacy, and all the demands that come with it, Xander Stryker already has a lot of changes to cope with. However, with the looming death of one friend and the bittersweet arrival of another, things take a very sudden and violent turn for him and his magical lover, Estella. And their struggles have only just begun.

Xander and Estella are finally married. And while the two have faced a great deal in their pasts, as the newlywed clan leaders look out at the cheering faces of their fellow vampires and other mythos allies, their histories are the furthest things from their minds. After all, they’ve got a future to plan for and a honeymoon to enjoy. But an old enemy—one who shared a fateful night long ago with Xander’s father—has very different plans for the two of them. Now, the vampiric lovers find themselves separated and hunted, reliving a familiar breed of terror from their past.

Xander Stryker has faced a lot in the past few years: an abusive, misery-hungry stepfather; a psychotic rogue with a vendetta against Xander’s bloodline; super-powered hunters; miles and miles of blood-thirsty rogues; and, of course, a slew of enemies who revered themselves as gods. Yet, all of their boasts and all of their claims meant little when Xander was finished with them. Until now….

A single night, a single moment, changed everything; Xander Stryker changed everything. But the worse has yet to come… Because, like the world, Xander Stryker has been changed, as well, but nobody—not even his wife, Estella—can be certain if this is for better or for worse. With apocalyptic threats rising from both the human world and the mythos world, however, the only certainty is that Xander is one of the only people on the planet that stands a chance of facing what’s coming.
