Creatures of Darkness Series

In the final book of the Creatures of Darkness series, powerful vampire, Rose Foster, and her Viking warrior girlfriend, Kara Unnarsdóttir, are trying to end a supernatural world war.
But when Kara learns the origin of Rose’s power, she must decide where her loyalty truly lies: with the woman she loves or the world itself.
Awards and Accolades:
- Voted Best Paranormal Romance on a Best Lesfic of 2020 list.

In the third book of the Creatures of Darkness series, Rose Foster—a sassy vampire with godlike power—must protect the ones she loves from an anti-vampire organization called the Assassins of Light, while also dealing with her growing feelings for the Viking warrior, Kara Unnarsdóttir.

In the second book of the Creatures of Darkness series, Rose Foster is just trying to adjust to her new life as a vampire, when a new villain throws her life into chaos yet again.
When they find out that the seductive, manipulative, and telepathic vampire, Alana, is alive—and forming an army—Rose and her friends turn to Alana’s ex-girlfriend for help.
Alana’s ex-lover, Kara Unnarsdóttir, is a cunning warrior and the second-in-command of the largest vampire colony in the world, the Tomb of Blood. Rose’s feelings for Kara are as intense as they are complicated, but whether or not she can be trusted remains to be seen.

In the first book of the Creatures of Darkness series, find out how our perpetually sarcastic and socially awkward protagonist, Rose Foster, found herself in the world of vampires in the first place.
The Creatures of Darkness Series:
The Creatures of Darkness series is a dark fantasy series, centered around Rose Foster—the perpetually sarcastic, bisexual protagonist—and an unlikely group of vampires who attempt to save the world.
There’s also a bit of queer romance going on in the midst of the chaos—especially once seductive, Viking warrior, Kara Unnarsdóttir, comes into the picture in The Tomb of Blood. 🖤
Follow Rose and her companions as they fight to stop a nefarious plan that was set into motion thousands of years ago, and as Rose unravels the mystery of what she really is.
The fourth and final book of the series, The Reign of Darkness, is available now!

Good Morning Britney,
I wanted to let you know that I read Pirates of Aletharia….more like consumed it yesterday. I found the plot very engaging and moved at a pace that kept me turning pages. Your characters came alive and carried the story through their dialogue, which was well written. The world was well thought out, believable and well described through the eyes of your characters. That’s not always an easy thing to do and I know many writers who struggle with the tell versus show balance. I truly enjoyed the book and am hungry for more. It’s not hard to see why you won a Goldie! I really hope you enjoyed the conference and made it back home safe and sound. It was great to meet you, and my wife and I sincerely hope to see you again in Denver at the next GCLS convention. Till then, keep writing, because I want book 2 soon as I’ll be jonesing for another trip to Aletharia!

And sorry it took me ages to see it. 😅 I lose track of emails and website comments every time life gets hectic. I’ve been trying to round up all of my missed ones this week, and some of them are from much longer ago than I would’ve ever expected. 😅
It was wonderful to meet you both last year! 💙💙💙💙 Thank you for being so awesome and so kind! 💙💙💙💙

I just finished Pirates of Aletharia and I had to hunt around for the second, before realizing it’s only recently been published! I haven’t fallen into a book like this in a long time, and it was so thrilling to do it again with these fantastic characters! I am absolutely infatuated, which seems appropriate. Anyway, thank you for such a fantastic read!

I found the Pirates of Aletharia.. to be Very compelling. Riveting. Unfortunately. Towards the end it jumps… Not that it’s hard to follow at this point. But it seems like editor/publishers deadline or page count was more to blame tan Your gifted style of writing… Anyway. I hope soon to find the next installment to this series. (As I plan on reading your other series as well.
You now are on my very short list of authors.
Sherilyn Kenyon/McQueen
Christine Feehan
Lynsay Sands.
And Dean Koontz.
Keep up the wonderful work

just finished reading Pirates of Aletharia and wow. One of the best sapphic fantasy books I have come across this far. As someone who has adhd and finds it very hard to concentrate on reading books in paperback form I listened to it on audible and let me just say the voice narrator/actor that you worked with to read the book was amazing! I was just hoping that for your future sequel books to this series if we will be getting an audiobook version as well?? Love you and your books so much!

Hello Britney!
I just wanted to let you know I read Pirates of Aletharia months ago and I still cannot stop thinking about it. It is my all time favorite sapphic fantasy book! Your words actually pushed me to start writing my own sapphic fantasy novel! Thank you so much for your inspiration and I will definitely be rereading Pirates of Aletharia multiple times in my lifetime.

Loved Pirates of Aletharia – have listened to it at least twice having found it on audible. I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the sequel – I can only listen to books, so wondering if it will be on audible soon? or do I need to get the kindle edition and see if its read aloud function is usable?
And one other thing – I do hope authors get paid properly for audible and kindle versions ? – they are a lot cheaper to buy than the printed editions, so hoping that is cost of books and shops and authors earn equally off all versions.

Hi Britney!
I just finished the second book of the lesbians, pirates, & dragons series and I’m so obsessed with these characters! I absolutely love the dynamic between Em and Maria, they are so well written as characters. I also have to let you know that I cant help but laugh out loud when ever Helen says anything. I saw on the last page that there should be more coming in the series but I cant find anything about it on your website, is there more coming?! thank you so much for blessing me with this amazing series! 💖

Hi! In the last week I’ve listened to both of your Lesbian Pirates books and am mildly obsessed with them. I listened to Goddess of the Sea twice in a row. I love your story, your characters, and deeply appreciate the accurate and respectful representations of autism and mental illness. Thank you for making Em’s autism a core part of her character and not a joke.
I can’t wait for the 3rd book and am dying to know if Lindsey Dorcus will narrate it. I can’t imagine experiencing it any other way!

Britney,
I have never wanted to thank an author so bad in my life for writing such an amazing series. But thank you, I absolutely indulged Pirates of Aletharia. I took every spare moment I had to read those books. As I get on my hands and knees I beg of you please dear goddess give us the third book as soon as possible!! I know I can speak for many when I say we NEED it!
