In a dystopian future where Vampires emerged from the shadows in order to stop humanity from becoming extinct, a young woman with a dark past meets a charismatic stranger.
As time goes by Private Love Aikawa of military Unit 4-7, finds that she may not be as human as she first thought, and that humanity may not be the side that she should be fighting for.
Battling rogue vampires, mutated creatures and her own past, Love works to unravel the mysteries behind the secretive Helsing unit, and tries to become the bridge between humans and vampires in a world filled with discrimination. 

This novel starts intentionally slow through the exposition and world building, everything kicks into gear after the turning point in the latter half of Volume 1, and especially Volume 2, where the tone of the novel shifts. So, I hope you stick with it and enjoy the wild ride! 
I also added some song recommendations along the way to listen to whilst you read certain chapters, I hope this helps boost the experience.

This is rated 'No one under 17 permitted' for (very) mature themes, including drug use, assault, discrimination against same sex couples, language, violence etc.
Please note that no storyline is chosen for shock value, and most are taken from personal experience, and hopefully handled with the care, respect and sensitivity they deserve.
Disclaimers are added against any chapter that may cause distress. 

The main couple is a man and woman but there are also LGBTQ+ characters and relationships spread throughout, hope you enjoy!

To Love A River

Chapter 15. "What would I do without you?"

<< Matilda - Harry Styles >>

On the morning of Faith Alden's 18th birthday, the world changed.

Her alarm sounded at precisely 6am, as it did so every morning, Faith rolled over with a deep groan and rubbed the sleep from her tired eyes.

"Ergh, damn late shifts." She mumbled as she swung her legs from the small bed that doubled as the living room couch.

Ever since her father's accident a few years prior they had been forced to downsize and with her mother acting as his full time carer now that he was wheelchair bound, it was only Faith who could add to their meagre earnings.
