Time for her to join the family business.
Perfect for fans of Ninth House, Nightshade, and Neon Gods, Death’s Daughter is a dark, spicy and deliciously autumnal contemporary romantic fantasy in a dark academia setting, in which 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 . . .
__________________________________
Death has been part of her from the very beginning . . .
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 . . .
