Blood Moon

Aurora Volvo is the new girl in town: a clumsy, kind-hearted teenager and a fast runner with a knack for getting into trouble. It doesn’t take long for Chloe, a fellow student and jealous track star, to blackmail Aurora after filming her rival in the school locker room showers. When Jacob Hoary Woulf, an intelligent, good-looking young man from the Origins bloodline, saves Aurora from further humiliation at the hands of Chloe and her friends, she can’t help but be drawn to him. Against all odds, and unaware that Jacob is a werewolf, Aurora finds herself falling in love with him.

But Aurora’s life changes forever on her seventeenth birthday, when her family reveals a secret: They all, Aurora included, are vampires. Not only is Aurora horrified to learn the truth, but love between werewolves and vampires is forbidden—under penalty of death. Can her relationship with Jacob continue? Meanwhile, Damien, Jacob’s older brother, is crowned prince of the werewolves. Soon afterward, he discovers that his longtime girlfriend, Abigail, is pregnant, and a struggle for power ensues, with Damien attempting to control not only Abigail’s life but the fate of their unborn child.

Romance combines with horror to make Blood Moon a tale that crosses boundaries between species, creating a world in which people and circumstances aren’t always what they seem. And author Udhaiya Priya’s unique tale fuses two approaches to writing, lending a sense of immediacy to this remarkable story.
