The Demimonde awaits...
Enter the world of the Demimonde.
Look outside your window. Same old town, same streets, same people, same stories you've lived all your life. Or... are they?
Sophie Galen is an advice columnist from the suburbs of Philly. Like many sensitive women, she's done her best to create a shelter for herself in order to live in a safe, predictable world, protecting her vulnerable self: her mind, her heart, her soul.
Then he came into her life and blew the walls in.
When Marek Thurzo arrived, he brought with him all the secrets she never wanted to know: the world outside was not what she thought. There were people and creatures and powers she'd never dared to believe exist and at the very center of this humongous supernatural web was one single person.
Her. The Sophia. The one hope for redemption for the Demivampire race.
Some days, she still can't wrap her head around the whole thing. Other days...
...she's ready to do whatever it takes to protect her demivamps, no matter the obstacle, no matter the enemy, no matter the personal cost.
While meeting her deadlines, natch. Who says a girl can't multitask while saving the world?
Sophie Galen is an advice columnist who is saving the world - one damned person at a time.
Shy and sensitive Sophie has all but given up on love until she meets Marek, a mysterious stranger who seduces her with his striking good looks and his take-charge attitude. Yet the darkness she senses within him may be more than she is prepared to handle when Marek draws her into a world of vampires, werewolves, and treachery. Forced to leave behind the comfortable routines and certainties of her past, Sophie makes unbearable sacrifices and uncovers hidden truths about herself and the world around her.

Bleeding Hearts: Book One of the Demimonde "will appeal most to readers who have outgrown Twilight but think the Anita Blake books are too salacious."
Publishers Weekly
"An emotionally gripping story that at times deceivingly reads like a light, airy beach read one second, only to surprise you with its depth the next."

"BLEEDING HEARTS, despite its superficial similarities to both Charlaine Harris's Sookie Stackhouse' books and Laurell K. Hamilton's' series, has something to offer that isn't done very often -- humor mixed with emotional depth and heart. If you have a fondness for urban fantasy...BLEEDING HEARTS will fill the bill."

Shiny Book Reviews
Sophie doesn't believe in happily ever after. These days, she'd settle for alive after sunrise.
Advice columnist and newly-appointed oracle to the demivampire, Sophie Galen has more issues than a Cosmo collection: a new mentor with a mean streak, a werewolf stalker she can't shake, and a relationship with her ex's family that redefines the term complicated. And then there's her ex himself, who is more interested in playing leader of the vampire pack than in his own salvation.
Becoming a better oracle is tough enough, but when Sophie encounters a deadly enemy - one she never dreamed of facing - it will take everything she's ever learned in order to survive.

Despite being an urban fantasy about paranormal characters Ash Krafton has written a very human story which any reader will find a connection point in. This book is a 5 star MUST read...

Sometimes, when life gives you lemons, all you can do is try to avoid paper cuts.
Since becoming oracle to the demivampire two years ago, advice columnist Sophie has battled werewolves and survived a vampire attack (or two). However, not only was she powerless to save her lover Marek when he slipped to the brink of evolution, she also witnessed his transformation into a falcon, the symbol of Horus United.
Sophie’s quest to save Marek is further complicated when rock star Dierk Adeluf – who also happens to be the king of the Werekind – invites her backstage after a concert. Just when it seems she will find respite from heartache, Sophie is bitten by a werewolf and Dierk decides she is destined to be his queen.
Sophie is caught between the demivamps she loves and the Were who commands her to love him. Throw in his jealous wanna-be girlfriend—a true bitch if ever there was one—and an ambush by witches, and there you have the big mess that Sophie calls her life. And, hello? Her soul mate is still a bird.
She’s supposed to be the girl with all the answers, but Sophie needs more than a little advice--she needs divine intervention.

I was on such an emotional roller-coaster throughout this book but it was a great ride. I was irritated, mad beyond belief, bawling my eyes out, surprised, and happy while reading this book. I would happily re-read the whole series over and over!
--Brandi
The emotions that Ash Krafton invokes in her readers is phenomenal. I found it nearly impossible not to feel like I was inside the novel. Each expression of emotion, from elation, to despair and anguish, and anger just flourished as I became one with the book.
--Sapphyria
You end this book with such a strong connection to all characters you find yourself sad to leave them. Ash Krafton created another great book, an amazing conclusion to her supernatural series and such remarkable characters that I will never forget...
