(This is a short story! It can be read as a standalone but is part of a series)

Darius Wilder is a vampire of royal blood. His father is one of the most powerful vampires around. After being ostracized for being gay he’s currently on the run from those that would hunt him. Phantom Creek has become his safe haven. The mortuary; his new home, and the people that work there; his new family. Romance hasn’t come easy for him and with each failed relationship he prays a little harder that fate will give him a mate of his own.

Jirga is a demon bounty hunter. He’s the last person you want hunting you down. When Aristotle Wilder hires him to find his son and bring him home Jirga thinks it’ll be a simple snatch and grab. Only, he runs into a little snag when executing the job he was sent to do.

Darius longs for his fated mate, not just for the companionship but also so he can gain the full power of his royal blood. Jirga just wants to finish his job and move on but Darius complicates that. Will these two be able to work things out and fight the enemy in front of them or will Darius’ father win?

When I saw the Mortician pop up on my Amazon page I had to have it right then! I am a Mortician and people say "oh that is so creepy" just like in your book! I laughed to myself. I think they should be free with my Amazon Prime. I bought the second book and it was over in just a few pages, why is that? You have a good theme going just way to short.

The Graveyard Shift is a series of short stories revolving around characters who work in a mortuary. There's no drawn out villain plot. It's about a couple of guys settling down and finding love.

About the Author

Well Ezra isn't my real name obviously but I liked the name so I decided to use it. I live at home with my five dogs and one cat. I started out writing hetero romance novels but it wasn't where my heart lied. I adore all things paranormal and M/M is by far my favorite genre so I decided to start writing Paranormal Romances. There's a guaranteed happy ending with each of my books even if it may take some time for my guys to get there. I love each and every character on the page and I look forward to writing more for you. I hope you all enjoy reading them as much as I do writing them 😀

Summary: Liam Scott is sick. That’s not supposed to be possible. As a wolf shifter, he’s supposed to be able to heal. The omega gene he was born with means he’s capable of carrying shifter young and Liam is worried that whatever is wrong will mean his one-day hope of having pups will be dashed. But despite the fears keeping him away from the doctor until now, he knows he needs to go. It turns out the sickness is temporary, but the treatment causes a whole other problem. Mason’s alpha gene means he’s one of very few wolves who can impregnate an omega male. For two years, he’d been watching Liam, but things kept getting in the way. When Liam shows up in heat, Mason recognizes the opportunity he needs and doesn’t hesitate make to Liam his mate and the father of his pups. But Liam has old wounds and fears to work through which the pregnancy is only making worse, and Mason isn’t sure how to get past them to show he’s serious about making a life together as loving mates. It’s not until a female wolf decides Mason should be hers that Liam makes his biggest worry known—and Mason can finally put the fears to rest.
