About this ebook

Not suitable for tweens.

When Patrick is murdered, Katelina is left with questions. Jorick, one of his so-called friends, has answers of the darkest kind: Patrick was involved with – and betrayed – a coven of vampires; vampires that may now be after Katelina.

The tale is fantastic, but the proof appears in a flash of fangs that Katelina and Jorick only just escape. Taken to a secret mansion, she discovers horror in its halls and learns the truth about her protector. Blood and destruction follow, and leave scars Katelina may never heal from.

The disturbing opener to the Amaranthine series pulls Katelina into darkness that tastes like fear and smells like blood, a world where night is eternal and vampires don’t sparkle.

BONUS: Includes the first chapter of Legacy of Ghosts.

She maintains several blogs, full of odd ramblings, and occasionally updates her website at JoleeneNaylor.com. In what little time is left ,she watches anime, plays PokemonGo, and works on her crooked Victorian house in Villisca, Iowa. Between her husband, family, and pets, she is never lonely, in fact, quite the opposite.

    Had to give up halfway. Heroine whined too much and story didn't grab me.

    I was never one to enjoy vampire books, but I gave Ms Naylor's series a try. Right from the 1st couple of pages I was hooked. In this first book Katelina ends up in the dark world of vampires and falls in love with Jorick, a powerful vampire. The book was a great read and I couldn't put it down.
