Nightbound

My name is Alexandra Wescott.

New Orleans was supposed to be my escape from a boring life I had been living and an absent mother who never gave a damn about me. Or ever let me see my dad. You only turn twenty-five once and in hopes of that, me and my best friend planned to lose ourselves in the wilder side of this sin city.

If I only knew what awaited there...I would have never set my foot. But I did and the hell broke lose. A creature from myth and nightmares attacked me, put my best friend in a coma and I found myself shielded by a mysterious guy who conjures a power so unspeakable that I never knew existed. He also happened to be my protector.

I am his to protect...and he informs:
There are two sides of the world, the side of day...and the world of night.
The cruel, mystical and magical side where creatures only heard in stories existed. And the guy who protected me?

Nik Ryder is a Nighthunter but he would not share anything else. His job is to protect me. That's it. If only I could stay away from the magnetisim of those intense gray eyes and leave this place all together. But the question always remained- Why me? Me of all the people in the world? I knew there was more to the story of my life than I have lived. And when I start finding crumbles to solve it, the revelations not only rock my existence but also open my eyes that all of my life was a lie.

A veiled lie by the cruel fate.
