Contemporary Dark Fantasy
Modern-day horror stories with strong emotional depth and real-world trauma. Urban life collides with old magick, monsters, and original mythologies that have twisted ideas of good and evil.
Supernatural Thriller
High-stakes narratives driven by mystery, danger, and psychological tension with a distinct otherworldly lens.
Tasha’s WCU (Wolf’s Crossing Universe) turns “angel-good, demon-bad” stories on their head. Throughout her shared-world series and trilogies, these beings reflect human failures and flaws. Her books use dark fantasy and emotional storytelling to explore injustice, fear, and change — all wrapped in the pulpy comfort of escapist fiction.
