Death’s Daughter: Realm Walker Series: Book 2
Kathleen Collins
Genre: urban fantasy, paranormal romance
Publisher: Carina press
Word Count: 68,000
Book Description:
Juliana Norris, Realm Walker with the Agency, is an Altered. A fact that she runs up against every time she’s forced to work with human police officers, and their species-ist commissioner, on cases they can’t solve themselves. Which happens more than they would like to admit.
Her gift—the quality that makes her the best Realm Walker in the business, without boast—is the ability to read magical signatures. Whether the gift came from her father, the dark fae god of death, or the mage mother she can’t remember, is anyone’s guess. And when Altered children start going missing with only wild magical signatures as clues, her heritage is the last thing on her mind.
She can’t afford such distractions, and she definitely can’t afford to worry about the fact that her mate, master vampire Thomas Kendrick, hasn’t spoken to her since she saved him from a demon—maybe it’s because she had to stab him to do so. Because whoever is kidnapping these children must be very powerful to wield wild magic. Very powerful, and very dangerous indeed.

My thoughts:
I love this series. I think the characters are incredible and the story is wonderful. I was hooked by the short story, completely in with book one and in love by book two. I couldn't seem to read them fast enough.
The author is a true storyteller. She has created characters that you want to know and/or be, set them in a vividly created world and paced their lives in a way that keeps the pages turning. I am thrilled to have found Kathleen Collins and can't wait to read more.

Realm Walker: Realm Walker Series Book One by Kathleen Collins
Book Description:
An estranged mate, a mangled body and a
powerful demon who calls her by name…
As a Realm
Walker for the Agency, Juliana Norris tracks deadly paranormal quarry using her
unique ability to see magical signatures. She excels at her job, but her
friends worry about her mysterious habit of dying in the line of duty without
staying dead. That's only the first of her secrets.
Most people
don't know Juliana became the mate of master vampire Thomas Kendrick before he
abandoned her seven years ago. Most people don't know the horrors she endured
at the hands of the vampire he left in command. Most people don't know her true
parentage, or why a demon on a world-threatening rampage has taken a personal
interest in her…
Even as
Juliana pursues the demon, it goes after all she holds dear—including Thomas,
who is back to claim her for his own. But if she can't reconcile her past and
learn to trust herself again, she will lose him forever.
The Making of Michael Bishop: A Realm Walker
Short Story by Kathleen Collins
Number of pages: 20
Book Description:
Keep your distance. Don't look him in the eye. Feed him and leave.
Michael D'Augustino
is a priest in the time of the Inquisition. Marked as weak for his refusal to
torture those charged with sorcery, heresy, devil worship or worse, he's given
another task. Feed the prisoner in the cell in the darkest corner of the
dungeon. With the edict comes a set of instructions.
Ever obedient,
Michael does exactly as he is told. Until the night his charge doesn't eat and
Michael has to enter the cell to find out why. Instead of the beast he believes
to be imprisoned there, he finds a man. A broken, tormented man who asks for
help.
But all is not as
it seems and, before the night is through, Michael will be changed forever.
