Solstice
In Gavin Moxley's world, there is no thin line between right
and wrong. In a personal crusade to help sever a line of disease carried by a
clan of vampires; Gavin has no choice to be ruthless. The Vampires are
purposely infecting the human population…waiting for humans to actively pass it
on to each other. Gavin takes no chances and executes them one by one. Not
strong or powerful, finding humans before they turn into full vampires is ideal
and Gavin’s best bet. Yes, this is Gavin’s life… …And nothing ever changes it
until a young half breed vampire with special abilities, Solstice, attaches and
makes herself a fixture in his life when she asks for his help and protection
and when a reluctant Gavin agrees he joins a dangerous game of cat and mouse.
There is no safe place and the pair are constantly watching their backs. Torn
between his hate and his love for Solstice Gavin is thrown into a moral dilemma
that only he can figure out but two things are clear… His faith and Humanity
are being tested and the past is not always forgotten.

Solstice Excerpt #1
The sun had already set at around six in the evening, when
the party was over. It was getting close to winter and the days had begun
getting shorter. She kissed her friend on the cheek and smiled at him while
waving “goodbye”. She left Leonard’s apartment that sat above a quiet antique
shop in the downtown area of Spartanburg. Despite the tranquility, she felt
uneasy to be walking around the neighborhood so late at night
The moon broke through the clouds to light up the one lone
skyscraper that towered over an array of government buildings. Little else of
any significance occupied the district, apart from a few restaurants, a cheap
hot-dog stand that was known for great food but bad digestive results, and a
drive-through burger bar where the “rich kids” hung out. There was a certain
sense of home a while back, maybe ten years ago, but now there was nothing but
fear that plagues the streets. Just like any downtown area, there is always the
fear in the back of your mind. Fear that you may get mugged or shot were the
thoughts our lady had. This was all due to the television of course.
Equinox
Confined in an old plantation home with Vampires lying in
wait Gavin and Solstice are forced to wait them out until sunrise that is
perilously approaching. Unbeknownst to them the remnants of the house are even
more terrifying than what is lying in wait outside. Solstice is coming into her
own and her feelings for Gavin begin to come to light. Gavin is stuck in the
memories of his deceased family, but the apparition he sees that resembles his
dead daughter doesn’t help. Lying in wait to escape at the first chance
possible, will they make it through the vampires and the supernatural creatures
that have inhabited the home for a very long time? “Equinox” ups the ante in
the Solstice trilogy, and no one involved will come out the same.

Equinox Excerpt #1
He took a deep breath and answered, “They’re not coming
in. Something about this place keeps
them in their place and out there. That’s the best we are going to get at this
point and we are quite lucky for that.
Sit down and relax and do that thing you do where you know shit about
the situation.” Solstice threw her hip out and put her hand on it.
Solstice felt like a circus magician or even one of those
carnie freaks that she heard about. That’s what one of her prostitute
“care-takers” called her. She didn’t know what it meant at the time but as the
days went by and her “abilities” got stronger, she figured it out. Solstice
wanted to yell as well but held back because she knew Gavin was trying to hold
back his. She figured it was probably for the best and that he was actually
right for a change. What Solstice didn’t know was the brief moment of terror
Gavin had earlier by himself while sitting down.
