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 

I couldn’t believe it. I had just turned 18. And my cravings had just begun.


“Half-breeds are also mortal,” Caleb continued. “They can die, like regular humans. We, on the other hand, cannot.


 “In order to be a true vampire, one would have to be turned by a true vampire, one who fed with the intent. Vampires are not allowed to turn just anyone—it would inflate our race too greatly. They must receive permission in advance from the Master Council.”


I furrowed my brow, trying to take it all in.


“You have some of our qualities, but not all. And since you are not a full breed, unfortunately, the vampire race will not accept you. Every vampire belongs to a coven. It is too dangerous not to. Normally, I could petition to accept you in our ranks. But given that you are mixed…they would never allow it. No coven will.”
