She's his best friend's little sister. He's the biggest player of them all. They shouldn't be together. But this summer's just too tempting. Sixteen-year-old Emilia Moretti's goal for the summer is simple: forget her brother's best friend-Nick Grawsky-ever existed. It should be easy: He's spending his summer in the Hamptons, adding girls in tiny bikinis to his list of broken hearts. Guarantee he won't be telling them they're like his little sisters. This summer, Emilia won't stay awake at night thinking about him. She'll need flawless ballet movements to have a shot at next year's showcase, and she's finally ready to search for her birth parents. But when Nick decides to stay in the city, Emilia's resolve disappears in a pirouette. Maybe it's the spin they needed to be together. As long as she doesn't get stuck believing in happily ever after... Nick is tired of pretending to be the happy, let's-have-fun guy. His father wants him to change his career from professional dancer to...lawyer. He needs to put all of his focus on dancing to prove to Daddy Dearest he's good enough to make it big. And he may have a case of the bluest balls in history courtesy of Emilia. She's off-limits: The bro code with Roberto even forbids the dirty thoughts he has about her. Besides, he's not boyfriend material. He only has time for flings, for girls who don't expect much, for girls he doesn't want to kiss goodnight. He knows he should resist her, but he's not sure he wants to... At least for this summer. It's going to be a summer like no other.

After breaking up with her boyfriend, seventeen-year old Aleria "Ali" Hayes finally feels liberated. Unfortunately, her ex's buddies are not making it easy on her. When his friends harass her one night, a mysterious stranger, Bowen, steps in to rescue her. But just as this new relationship seems to be taking off, Ali is attacked by something far worse than spiteful high school boys. When she awakes, her eyes are opened to a world where gods still walk the earth, where vampires and other immortals fight for supremacy- and where fate may be stronger than free will. Now, Ali must decide who she can trust, and whether the world of mortals is worth saving at all. I tried to push him back, but he was too strong, like iron. Suddenly, his head snapped up like he had heard something, he craned his neck to listen, and then he let out a hiss. He kissed next to my ear and softly whispered, "I think breaking you will be much more fun. I'll see you soon." And then he added, as if an afterthought, "Tell him hello for me." Then I felt his mouth lock onto the base of my neck and something pierce my flesh. It hurt. Despite my panic, after a few moments, my heart slowed and everything became distorted as the blackness came for me. THIS IS A SIX CHAPTER SAMPLE

[extended summary + aesthetics inside] To be ripped away from my Taurus home and dragged into the foreign Realm of Virgo turned out to be quite a mess. I was told to keep my head low, to stay away from trouble, but clearly, they hadn't met one with flickering hazel eyes and leather gloves, for it is impossible to abide by their rules. I took a deep breath as my icy blue eyes bore into oblivion. Everything was at a different frequency that I dared not to tear my vision away. Somehow, I knew what was coming--a storm, no, a couple of thunderstorms that were damned to merge into one hurricane. And I was beginning to feel gravity stir me right into the surges of the storm. _ _ _ STARTED: 01.12.18 ENDED: tbd all rights reserved. © r.a. lee

Dear Reader, A POCKET GUIDE TO HAVEN is a fictional booklet created from material that was culled from an early draft of my novel BECOMING DARKNESS and from notes I worked up while developing the book. There were thoughts of perhaps presenting it as an appendix to the novel, but length prevented this, and so I present it here, for those who may seek a little more information on the world in which the novel is set. The guide is written to reflect the rather staid academic bearing of its fictional writers, and to mirror the type of language one might find in a typical guidebook that seeks to edify rather than entertain. BECOMING DARKNESS is an alternate history YA novel, set in the early part of the twenty-first century, in a world where history took a decidedly different path during World War Two. It is published by Switch Press and was released on October 1st, 2015. The book can be found in bookstores and purchased from on line retailers around the world.

His name was Miles. That's how tall he was... "From 50 feet away, I thought he was a volleyball pole. From 20 feet away, I knew that I was looking at a man, miles and miles of one, and the sand and the salt of the foam tapering at the edge of the Pacific, the haze of LA, and the warm sunlight that heated my bare shoulders, all melted into one another. I melted as well." How do you spell Romance? Your heart knows the font size. So go ahead and spell it. You deserve to be lifted to that special place, where love empowers and stress dissolves.
