When Vienna dreamed of her future as an artist, she didn’t imagine being the starving kind but life hasn’t quite turned out as she envisaged it. Stuck in a dead-end job and living with her sworn-enemy-turned-best-friend isn’t where she thought she’d be at 23: adulthood isn’t turning out quite as she planned. It doesn’t help that she has her mother breathing down her neck, forcing her to jump through life’s hoops. When a serendipitous meeting comes her way, she has a choice to make and a risk to take: she can play it safe and keep painting by numbers or she can begin a new canvas and risk losing everything to find the joy her life is sorely missing. The natural reaction is to do what any struggling artist would: Vienna quits her job, the only safety net she has, to pursue her dream.

{ By Shaivi R } Vampires and werewolves just about rule Ana's life. Living in a world where vampires and werewolves exist, humans have learned to accept that these supernatural creatures dominate all other races - including their own. They may not mean any harm but they radiate power, striking terror into the hearts of those around them. And those who rule them all - the royal hybrids - they are the most feared and respected. The Crown Prince, Sebastian Cassio, is searching for his mate. Ana wants absolutely nothing to do with them. Her life at Harvard is great; teachers love her and her boyfriend couldn't be better. During the week of the Blood Moon, the Crown Prince holds a ball in New York, where Ana is visiting her stepmother, father and obnoxious stepsisters. Obliged to go, she attends with her stepsisters, not knowing how much her life was about to change. Whisked away, she hates her new life as well as the monster she believes the prince is. Can Ana deal with the life she was destined to have? [ Includes romance and sexual references but no actual sex. Some ideas came from Ji (@Shaymin-) ] ♡♡♡ © 2015, Shaivi R Edited by Ji C All Rights Reserved
