Skittles: Speed Queen

Krystal Diane Shioui—known to the underground as Skittles—thought dropping out of Job Corps was her biggest problem. But when her closest cousin, M&M, is brutally murdered by a rival werewolf pack, Krystal inherits a terrifying birthright: the blood of a dormant vampire lineage.

Sucked into the neon-drenched, heavy-metal world of the West Coast Vampire Covenant, she replaces her broken Honda Civic with The Spectral, a twin-charged, 1,400-horsepower Dodge Charger built for supernatural speed. Led by the charismatic Cuban street king Redhot and backed by her fiercely loyal crew, Skittles becomes a drag-racing legend, turning the concrete canyon of the Sepulveda Dam into an asphalt war zone.

But as the FBI Occult Task Force closes in and a devastating betrayal reveals that the mysterious syndicate handler, 100 Grand, is actually her long-lost billionaire father, Skittles faces a choice that could tear her apart. Caught between her undeniable attraction to Redhot and her deep, intoxicating bond with Jongu, a powerful werewolf prince, she must forge an unprecedented alliance between ancient enemies.

From the gridlocked freeways of downtown L.A. to the high-altitude fog of the Grapevine pass, Skittles has to weaponize her faith, her gears, and her fangs to claim her throne. Because the international covens are coming to take the West Coast—and they’re about to find out how the Speed Queen handles the interstate.
