18 year old Caitlin, abandoned by her family, enters a new school and feels an instant attraction to Jonah.

But before their romance can blossom, Caitlin finds herself changing. She is overcome by a superhuman strength, a keen sense of smell, a tremendous power, and by feelings she does not understand. Her eyes are opened to a hidden world, and she, as an outcast, finds herself caught between a werewolf pack and a vampire world.

And caught between two loves.

Caleb, a mysterious and powerful vampire, rescues her from dark forces. He needs her help. And she needs him.

But their love is forbidden. To fall in love would be to risk it all, to risk a war between races that could destroy them all.

But it is a love that transcends time and place, a love too powerful to resist. A love that will force them to decide whether to risk it all for each other… 


Marked 

Please be there, Jonah. Please don’t go. Please.


I exited at Columbus Circle and walked at a brisk pace. I checked my watch again. I was 20 minutes late. I swallowed.


As I walked, just a few blocks away, I suddenly felt a pang in my stomach. I stopped, taken aback by the intense pain.


I bent over, clutching my stomach, unable to move. I’d never experienced anything like this before. I struggled to catch my breath.


People passed quickly by on either side, but no one stopped to check if I was OK.


After about a minute, I finally, slowly, stood back up. The pain began to subside.


I began walking again, heading in the direction of the café. But I now felt completely disoriented. And something else….Hunger. It wasn’t a normal hunger, but a deep, unquenchable thirst. As a woman walked past me, walking her dog, I noticed myself turning and staring at the animal. I found myself craning my neck and watching the animal as it walked past, and staring at its neck.
