Bloodlines

Everyone bleeds.

Over a century and a half ago, Veronica Ravenhurst was faced with the horrible reality of being Awakened. At thirteen years old, a gene became active in her body, making her mold and change into something else: a Ripper. Not only did it effect her body, but mindset as well. She continues to live in her family's aristocratic home in London, England, only to end up putting her family's lives in danger.
Four years later, Veronica meets Benjamin, a Ripper with a broken past and a viscous temper, with a sense to kill. Can she calm his inner demons and storms, or will it get the best of both of them? Find out as Veronica retells her story in present day, and relives her blood lust, torment, heartbreak and the world of Victorian England.
