Kiss Me Deadly is the chilling follow up horror and paranormal romance anthology to the fan favorite collection of stories, Rock Paper Scissors, brought to you from author Tamela Miles. Five unsettling tales of horror, with a pinch of the paranormal romance many readers have come to enjoy.

The Swinging Tree:

Audrina and Matt are all set to enjoy a vacation in a charming little town in Northern California. But the town holds deadly secrets that no citizen is willing to speak about. Silence may be golden, but it puts Matt and Audrina on a collision course with a dark force that is hell-bent on vengeance.

Hands Clean:

Lili's life is forever changed after a beach house getaway with her friends. She is given a once-in-a-lifetime chance to exact punishment on the one who betrayed her trust, and she grabs it once because she doesn't believe in transcendence.

Be Home by Sunrise:

Chase has been taking care of headstrong Tiffany since he turned her into a vamp. When she does the unforgivable, he whisks her away into hiding. She hopes their bond will go from maker and child to lovers, but there's a looming presence that won't let them ride off into the moonlight together. Or let them go unpunished.

Witch Bitch:

An afternoon spent with friends and new girlfriend, Luna, has Mason feeling hopeful about the future after his struggle with depression. When the situation goes from friendly to life or death, he is forced to confront the demons he has spent so many years running from. For some, forgive and forget isn't an option.

Paper Dolls:

Zach makes a great escape from his old life to Vegas with his new partner in crime, Paris. She challenges him to reflect on his ways and embrace the dangerous path they're both on. Too bad, for a city full of women, his soul searching takes him to an even darker place. Two is company, three is murder.

Excerpt from Kiss Me Deadly

You never see the claws until you feel them…

Five spine-chilling stories where revenge is the only choice.

Lili jerked awake in the early morning, rays of sunlight shining in. She lay in bed next to Nate, who was still sleeping deeply. The dream stayed with her, and she could recall every detail. She whispered the words, “Make him pay,” to herself softly. Dracaea. The name lingered in her thoughts as she rolled over and closed her eyes to rest a bit more. What if she really existed? What if she could help her give Max some payback?

Her foot rubbed against her other calf as she lay there, and she noted the roughness. Frowning in confusion, she sat up and pulled the covers aside to reveal a good amount of sand clinging to her feet. She hadn’t been on the beach at all the night before. Dracaea’s face came to mind. Or…maybe she had?

Lili’s mind spun with the possibility of finally being able to punish Max while keeping her own hands clean. Payback using the supernatural was intriguing. Though she did believe in the power of the paranormal, she had never cast a spell in her whole life. Hell, even Ouija boards scared her a little. She didn’t know any Wiccans, but she knew exactly where to find them. Today, once she and Nate got back to Caddo, would be a busy day.

Later in the morning, she and Nate had said their goodbyes to the crew and were headed down the interstate in his huge black Jeep. As they sped along, she tried to keep up her side of the conversation, though she was distracted by the idea of using the occult at her bidding. Of course, it won’t work, she scolded herself. How delusional are you, Lili? But…what if?  That what-if was tantalizing.
