{book 1} ✓ - ❝ Once upon a time… Wait, are you shitting me? This story doesn’t start like this. On the contrary! This story is about a girl who thought had enough of men but, of course, her words backfired on her face. Yeah, this girl is me. An average girl… Okay, not so average, more insane, I would say. Whatever. This is my story and if you want to know what happened, keep reading, because it all started with an eating contest. ❞

Do you want to laugh? Do you? You know you want to, don't you. Come on, don't be afraid---- Just read me>>>>>

Jessica Aubry is your typical 17 year-old high school student. She goes to school and has to deal with troublesome teachers, backstabbing friends and mountains of homework. But there is something that sets her apart from her peers; her entire family was brutally butchered when she was 12. An orphaned child, Jessica was taken in by a young boy who seemed to need parents as much as she did. Haden Carter, her now 19-year old guardian is a mystery. Tall, handsome and quiet; Jessica knows there’s something below the surface. How is it a 19 year old can afford to lead such an affluent life? How did he, when he was 14, get custody of a 12 year old? Why does he disappear at nights only to reappear haggard and depressed? Naturally, there’s only one solution, right? Jessica’s guardian must be a sexy, brooding vampire! But alas, she’s not so lucky! Her guardian is far more...complicated than that. The appearance of an almost familiar stranger sets Jessica’s life whirling 180 degrees. She begins doubting her guardian and questions why she was the sole survivor the night her family was murdered. Jessica never wanted a complicated life. No, she was perfectly content being a typical high school kid. But fate had other plans for her. Jessica is about to discover what life is really made of; some sugar, some spice and a pinch of fantasy.

See, this - it was supposed to be my "escape, " kind of, I guess. But it's kind of anything but. I honestly don't know what this is - it's personal, and it's public. It's emotional and yet so dry. Its me, but it's not me at the same time. Um, it's, kind of, I don't know what to call it. It's words, words that are big, and words that are small. Words that are easy, and words that are hard. Words that are soft and words that are rough, like broken pieces of glass, jarring and piercing, and painful. Words that are red, and bloody, but then words that are black, or maybe kind of only dark grey? {trigger warning? i'm not sure but better safe than sorry.}
