Dante's Girl
Kayla Steele is a woman with a problem.
First of all, she's trying to hold down her job at the perfume counter of a large department store, whilst staying on top of her pile of mounting bills. As if that wasn't enough, she's also on a mission to learn the Dark Arts so that she can avenge the death of her boyfriend and bring down the cabal of supernatural entities that is stalking the streets of LA.
Then, of course, there's the dead boyfriend himself, Karrel Dante. She's really got no idea where that relationship is going at the moment. Dante's Girl is a dark, sexy, adventure-filled novel that explores the supernatural underbelly of life in contemporary LA - and the issues faced by a girl who really just wants to spend some quality time with her dead boyfriend.
Dante's Girl marks the beginning of a fantastic series of contemporay supernatural adventures in the vein of Laurel K Hamilton's Anita Blake sequence and Kelly Armstrong's Bitten.
"Taut and gripping, Natasha Rhodes's prose is that precious thing: the stuff you just can't put down..."
- Dan Abnett, bestselling author of Horus Rising
"Dante's Girl breathes some new life into the urban fantasy werewolf/vampire genre, with vivid characters and deliciously evil villains, a fast paced, exciting and enjoyable read. Recommended reading!"

"Rhodes's exceedingly witty and vividly descriptive writing style -- not to mention her ability to keep the narrative's pacing consistently pedal-to-the-metal -- place this novel a cut above the rest. Smart, sexy, and oh so satisfying."
-- Paul Goat Allen, Explorations Reviews
