Dry Spell (Elemental Magic #2)

Aileen Donovan is an elemental with magical control over water. When Aileen finds a mummified body at a scientist's convention in Seattle, she suspects supernatural foul play. Her amateur sleuthing, however, isn't the romantic getaway her human boyfriend, Colin, had in mind. Breaking into crime scenes and fending off black magic doesn't really set the mood.

As more bodies turn up, Aileen's insatiable desire to solve the mystery not only pits her against a serial killer, but also a cunning vampire lord, and an elemental agent with ulterior motives.

But the closer Aileen gets to the killer, the further she finds herself from Colin. Can she try to salvage their relationship and stop a murderer, or is she out of her supernatural league?

What she saw and whom she met gave birth to exciting and complex fantasy worlds where defying the laws of physics was a bonus. She has since come back down to earth, only to discover this mortal realm has magic of its own. Now she is quite at home in the world of urban fantasy, though believes that love, faith, and hope are of a stronger magic than fire wielding and sorcery. She loves gun-toting good boys, and could have been a cop in another life except real blood makes her queasy. She'll have to stick to solving supernatural mysteries. Language is her pleasure, whether it's weaving words on a page or lassoing linguistics into translations as a sign language interpreter.
