Fair warning: Although this is a coming-of-age story with some erotic elements, it is not a romance.

Katherine X. Rylien began writing fiction as a teenager, in spiral-bound notebooks (her teachers assumed she was taking notes). She completed the first draft of Blood Relations, recounting the early life of Renee Cadieux-Smith, in 1980. Over the next decade, she wrote two sequels, Vicissitudes and Revisitations.
Forty years later, after a plethora of other adventures, Katherine took these hand-written manuscripts down from the attic during the Covid-19 pandemic. 2020 saw a complete rewrite of all three volumes, with considerable revision for style and detail, yet Reneeâs story is essentially unchanged. In the process of preparing the trilogy for publication, Katherine became convinced that there was a forth book in the seriesâher answer to the question, âWhat happens next?â
Katherine is also the author of Vampire Dreams, a collection of short stories. If you enjoy her work, she'd love to hear from you at katherine.rylien@gmail.com. Or connect on Facebook. She rarely turns down a friend invite, unless itâs that rich, lonely widower whose backstory is so suspiciously lacking in detail ;-)
