Hollow Blood (Sleepy Hollow Horrors, Book 1): The Hunt For the Foul Murderer of Ichabod Crane (Volume 1) Austin Dragon

This stranger threatens not only their lives, but their very souls by bringing about the return of the hellish Headless Horseman! Will death be upon them all?

Heartsick
Heartsick Dia Reeves
A large creepy estate, mysterious twin brothers, family secrets, a diabolical invention known as the bone machine, and a young girl who is not at all human.
Meet the Westwoods: a father whose inventions often create death and despair, his twin sons who are not above experimenting on the servants, and the daughter whose existence no one is supposed to acknowledge. A sudden infestation of ghastly creatures into their foreboding plantation home causes them to hire a lethiferist, a killer of supernatural monsters. The problem is that newly-hired Rue, who like all her kind was born without a heart, is a supernatural monster. She's also too short, too young, and too compassionate for the job. Compassionate toward her fellow monsters, that is; not toward humans...on whom she occasionally feeds.

What an incredible world Dia Reeves has created with HEARTSICK! Rue, the story's central character, is both gloriously sinister and easily sympathetic. In a world populated with monsters (human and otherwise), Reeves has created a story about a non-human character that's written with wit and just enough weirdness to remind you that Rue is truly heartless.

The opposite of life isn't death; it's something far worse.
In an anarcho-capitalist future, space-based corporate settlements have replaced the State. Colonel John Alvarez, a fifteen-year veteran, is unwilling to waste more years leading missions into deep space. He wants to start over and make a new life with his wife and son.
But when a distress message from a distant research probe is received, Novos Corp reactivates Alvarez's contract. He must carry out one last mission, a rescue attempt. Unknown to Alvarez, however, is the hidden threat that awaits him, one that—if he cannot stop it—will doom humanity to a fate worse than death.

Recently Updated
In Louisiana, the smell of the swamp lingers in the air as the sun sets, but something else remains hidden behind the moss covered oak trees. A man who lives by different rules of life and will subject people to an odd form of torture by providing them eternal life through the name of God. A gay man is journeying to Louisiana to meet with his family regarding a substantial amount of money left in a will when everything goes awry. He would find himself in a very precarious situation.
This is a horror story that starts off seemingly innocent and cliche, but that is what the author wants you to think. This story is not at all classified as fantasy, and his methods of providing eternal fear are incredibly conventional.

Love can be found anywhere and with two individuals on another planet, across the street, in your own heart even if it is lost on the coldness of the uncaring masses living in the future.

The book blurb is enticing and the cover is good. Looking forward to read this.

Diary of Night #1 Will Allred
Feared. Hated. Hunted. Vampires exist, but not those of myth and legend.
They are just like us. Good. Bad. Indifferent, but mostly frightened of themselves, of being found out, and of dying again.
Catherine Morrison has spent the better part of 900 years walking the line between humans and vampires…protecting her people from the worst of humanity and humanity from the worst of her people.
She is loved, feared, and sometimes even hated, but she’s never been hunted.
Until now.
