For readers who've been searching for the next Anne Rice: Kaysha writes character-driven vampire fiction with the political intrigue, centuries-old psychology, and wit you've been craving. Think less destiny and fated mates, more strategic maneuvering and banter sharp enough to draw blood.

This is character-irreplaceable fiction—stories built on wit, choice, and relationships that aren't dictated by destiny. Vampires are vampires (with no apologies). Characters make choices (rather than relying on fate). Readers get fiction worth savoring (rather than speed-reading).

Her debut novel arrives in September 2027, but you don't have to wait—monthly short stories set in the L'Échiquiere Universe launched January 2026. Start with The Table Meeting, where Julien Sinclair's unconventional Shield meets for the first time and proves that the most dangerous player is the one who's already five moves ahead.

Kaysha lives in St. Louis, Missouri, with three kids, three dogs, and a diamond painting habit that's gotten out of hand.
