Criminal Minds meets Bones
Four skeletons in a mass grave. Who will be next?
Loner homicide detective, Hunter Markum, tries to remain detached when he sees the pile of bones, but something inside him snaps. His missing sister could be one of them. His only hope of learning their identities is to team up with Dr. Kerry Herlihy, a forensic anthropologist. As much as he works to keep his distance, something about her compassion strikes a chord with him.

As the attraction ignites between them, their quest to find the killer soon reveals the identities of the victims. But that puts Kerry right in the path of the killer. In a race against the clock, Hunter must apprehend the murderer if he hopes to save the woman he loves once she's BURIED ALIVE.

        Not only do I love to read, write, and dream, I'm an extrovert. I enjoy being around people and am always trying to understand what makes them tick. My romances must have a happily ever after, and I need characters I can relate to. My men are wonderful, dynamic, smart, strong, and the best lovers in the world (of course).

        My cozies are quirky and fun where I take you into a world of a town of witches who love to gossip more than anything.

        Fun facts about me

        (1) I'm a math nerd who loves spreadsheets. Give me numbers and I'll find a pattern.

        (2) My husband and I recently moved to Costa Rica where we are trying to learn Spanish while we enjoy the beautiful beaches!!

        (3) I love photos, so check me out on Instagram as @dayvella.

        I enjoy hearing from readers either on FB or via email (hint, hint). [velladayauthor@gmail.com]

        In case you didn't know, I also used to write as Melody Snow Monroe --erotic romance for Siren Publishing.

        This story snagged you from page one. More twist and turns than an out of control roller coaster. Enjoyed the romantic thread as well. Great read!

        I'm going to be honest here and say that I have not enjoyed VD's books. Its not that they are bad its jut not my style. As much as I love PR I just struggled with her books. This book however felt like a completely different author . I really really liked this one. I love RS books but because of my disappointment with her other books I didn't have my hope to high. This was great! Its not a mystery of who done it because well its obvious. But it was well written and just sucked me in. I will be read the rest of the series for sure.

        Buried Alive is a hair-raising romantic suspense by Vella Day. Ms. Day has provided readers with a well-written book furnished with a fantastic cast of characters. Detective Hunter Markum is called when a grave site is found with multiple bodies. Kerry Herlihy is a forensic anthropologist and is assisting by using the skulls to find who the remains are from. Hunter and Kerry's story is loaded with drama, bits of humor, sizzle, action and suspense. I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to my next book by Vella Day. Buried Alive is book 1 of the Buried Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliffhanger.

        I had hoped this would be a new story to immerse myself in but the first few chapters just seemed to be rambling and going nowhere.

        Kerry and Hunter's story has so many twists and turns, unexpected, and heart pounding adrenalin that you'll fly through the pages.

        I don’t usually go for books like this but I absolutely loved this. It took me a while to get into because it’s so far from what I usually read but the story line characters and plot was really good. Loved it
