NEW SEMESTER. FRESH BLOOD. WELCOME TO FINAL YEAR AT BEECHER UNIVERSITY. 'Paranormal lovers rejoice, your new obsession has arrived!' HANNAH WHITTEN 'Like a spicier, modern take on the old school urban fantasies I love so much . . . but with a gritty dark academia world all its own' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader review 'It gave me big Buffy the Vampire Slayer vibes...students with paranormal secrets, a campus setting, and blissfully oblivious authorities' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader review __________________________________ Jocasta has carved out a normal life at Beecher University - well, as normal it can be when your name is Jocasta and you are the only child of Death. Jo has a good job, great friends, and is trying to get over a secret fling with an unbelievably attractive (and unbelievably unavailable) grad student. But she's also lonely. No one close to her knows the truth about who - or what - she is. Or that she must feed to survive, and she feeds on them - their disappointments, failures, and rejections. It's not a perfect system, but it works. Just. Until a handsome stranger - and descendant of Lust - shows up on campus and announces that Death has formally named Jo as his successor. Now she's both a powerful ally and a massive threat, and everyone she loves is a target. But Beecher is the one place that has ever felt like home, and Jo will do anything to protect it. Even if it means becoming the very thing she hates . . . Perfect for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Vampire Diaries, Nightshade, and Ilona Andrews, Death's Daughter is the first in a deliciously dark and spicy urban fantasy series with a mystery at its heart, where the only daughter of Death is named his successor, making her both a powerful ally and a massive target, all while she tries to make it through her final year at college . . . __________________________________ 'Delivers paranormal romance, wicked fun, and irresistible tension' LOGAN KARLIE 'Full of tension, dread, and spice, Death's Daughter is the urban fantasy resurrected!'
