Since her birth, Nkechi's has been reassured by the fact that her life was predestined. Her fate was written on her skin for all to see and sealed by her fathers lips for everyone to hear. She was Funai, a holy sorceress of the Feri tribe and she was to be betrothed to the favoured Dahara warrior, Kofi. The white marks on her skin had decided her fate from birth or so she had thought. Nkechi's life as she knew it came to an abrupt halt when she was torn from her sleep by the awakening of her own Dahara. An ethereal beast that lay hidden within her being until the call of a distant friend brought her forward. Weeks after her return from the journey that returned her friend Maliha to her lost tribe, Nkechi is plagued by her truth. The Feri believe that one can be a Funai or a Dahara but they cannot be both and yet Nkechi is unprepared to accept the law. Follow Nkechi as she finds herself at the cusp of a life changing discovery, one that will place her at the centre of a world struggling to fight the dark energies that reside inside the hearts of the Lost Nation.

Set in Victorian Poland is a tale about a stubborn young woman named Elsa whose father runs a society solely for vampyre hunting. Elsa does not believe in such tales, until she comes across a mysterious man at a ball interested in her mother's old pocket watch... and possibly her blood. When Elsa wakes and finds herself in an enchanted mansion and is not able to leave, she realizes that the man she'd danced with was no man at all, but a vampyre. Elsa is desperate to escape, but what she'll discover out in the world might just be darker than the mysterious, manipulative vampyre who has captured her... perhaps even darker. She could just discover herself, and not all discoveries are full of light. ~Had been selected and promoted by Crimson Peak Movie's sponsored reading list ~The perfect spooky, cozy Halloween novel you won't be able to put down
