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 

There was something about him I could not explain, something that made me unable to look away. Something that made me not want to leave his side. I liked Jonah. 


But I needed Caleb. Being around him was all-encompassing.


Caleb’s smile vanished as quickly as it had appeared. He was clearly disturbed.


“I’m afraid there will be a much higher price for admission,” he said, “if this meeting does not go as I would hope.”


He led me through another stone archway, and into a small, medieval courtyard. Perfectly symmetrical, surrounded on four sides by columns and arches, this courtyard, lit by the moon, was very beautiful. I could not fathom how we were still in New York City. We could have been in a European countryside.


We walked across the courtyard and down a long stone hallway, the sound of our footsteps echoing. We were trailed by several more guards. Vampires? I wondered. If so, why were they so civil? Why didn’t they attack Caleb, or me?
