Books with author Kay Richards

Nista is born on a world where the dead never stay dead and are a part of everyday life. The docile are called spirits(ghosts) or ghouls(zombies), most are friendly, they play with children and are used as domestic staff. The evil poltergeist are called demons. They soar through the air taking human shape to trick and deceive in order to steal precious human life to live again. Young Nista has such a strong light (life force) that demons constantly show up to wreak havoc wherever she is present. If she were a flame, they would be her moths. Her father sells her out of frustration to an order of demon hunters who train her as a demon warrior. Now, 17 and in love, Nista sets out to rid her world of demons. The price might be too high, but doing nothing is not an option. Whether she lives or dies, demons will rue the day they angered her. Bad attitude, hatred, and strife are great qualities that keep demons alive, but guess what? Nista harbors the same traits and she hates bullies, especially dead ones. If she grasps one and pumps her power into it, it glows as bright as the sun and then pops like a hot air balloon. Nothing gives her greater satisfaction. Demons beware, a demon warrior is coming for you.
