"I am a vampire. I do drink blood. I am deadly. But it doesn't mean I'm a bloodthirsty maniac that doesn't know what living is, how living works, because I still feel, I still get angry, I still love," Leandro chocked out, the pain evident in his eyes. Just from that, I wanted to take back all I did, go on my knees and beg for his mercy.
But I will never bow to anybody, ever.

Elora Starlight, a seventeen year old orphan, had the dullest life you could think of. Dull food, dull orphanage, dull thoughts. Her only wish was to finally leave the orphanage once she hit the age of eighteen and start over.
But her wishes changed as a group arrived at the orphanage. They were everything Elora looked for when it came to company.
Reckless, funny, mysterious, but also not what they seemed to be.
They were more, especially Leandro. He managed to break her shell of stubbornness and selfishness. He managed to strip her from her identity and show her the real world, the real world that wasn't how it seemed to be.
There was more to her new friends, the world, but also her.
She was more.

Join Elora on her journey of betrayals, love, hurt, secrets and figuring herself out.

*****
It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life.
