Cara’s mother has disappeared. Her father isn’t talking about it. Her big brother Max is hiding behind his iPod, and her genius little brother Jackson is busy studying the creatures he collects from the beach. But when a watery specter begins to haunt the family’s Cape Cod home, Cara and her brothers realize that their scientist mother may not be who they thought she was—and that the world has much stranger, much older inhabitants than they had imagined. With help from Cara’s best friend Hayley, the three embark on a quest that will lead them from the Cape’s hidden, ancient places to a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea. They’re soon on the front lines of an ancient battle between good and evil, with the terrifying “pouring man” close on their heels.

*Highest Ranking: #4 in Vampire* "Get. Away. From me." I warned. He blinked, and a slow smile formed its way onto his face. I clenched my fists, fighting the urge to brush a stray lock of midnight black hair from his forehead; he looked positively angelic when he smiled. "You don't want that," he murmured, his face dipping closer to mine. I pressed myself harder against the wall as he continued, his breath cool on my lips and so, so tempting. "You want me, Elizabeth. And out of every beautiful human girl in my estate tonight, I want you too." **** Sebastian Rockefeller is Lake Village's newest vampire. Lake Village banned the turning of humans 100 years ago; Sebastian has taken residence there and for the past 100 years, treated humans as cattle. No army is strong enough to overthrow him, and no other vampire dares to set foot in his territory. Despite the danger, humans flock around him in hopes of becoming immune to the march of time, and every year he hosts a ball to give them the chance to catch his interest, yet he has never taken it seriously. Now, Sebastian is tired of ruling alone.

***GirlXGirl Romance*** Living in New York you learn to keep up with the quick pace of the city, myself included. I was never the one to stop and smell the roses, but that was until I met her on that dull September afternoon. Her eyes were light and dark at the same time, as if a devil and an angel lived inside of her. Time itself had stopped, and since that day everything had changed, ever since I had crossed paths with Drew Wilder.
