Synopsis:
It’s true no one can out run Death.
But Death doesn’t always want your existence. In Lianna’s case wants her
mortality.
Long have Lianna’s dreams been a
window into another time. A place that is as magnificent as it is dark.
Frightened and weary from the physical toll the nightmares take on her body she
turns to her psychic friend for guidance, which results in prophetic visions of
Lianna’s death.
Mercenaries come after Lianna to stop
her from fulfilling her fate. A destiny at her beloved’s side while
rediscovering the real magic within her. Facing demise brought down on her by
the hands of the mercenaries, the power of love offers her a new life as a
vampire which ultimately fulfills the same epic fate the murderous villains
fought to keep her from.

say, always sits in her section and pretty much has an obsession with

Things go from there. He drives her home from work one night, and
wouldn’t you know it, over time she falls for him…lolOne night Damien is out of town and Lianna is attacked, he world unravels fast from that night on . She finds stuff out about her new bf that she never imagined.
She gets brought into a world and a family that she never thought existed and becomes, herself, one of them. Little by little her life falls apart, she gains a family, loses herself in the meantime, finds out stuff she never would have dreamed..well……you need to read the series to find out more…lol

Excerpt:
There was an alley to the right. Too
small for the car, or could he follow? Would it be a dead end and he’d have me
cornered? It was my only chance. I lunged for its opening.
My knee gave as my foot twisted off
the curb sending me stumbling forward. My arms thrust out instinctively. I
landed snapping my wrist back. They hadn’t softened the blow to my face as I
hit the cold wet concrete.
Blood spattered from my nose and
mouth. My lungs were too fatigued to even muster a scream. Instead this
sickened pathetic whimper gurgled out through the stream of blood.
As I lay there, trying to muster
enough will to get up, the tires squealed to a stop right next to me. My ears
rang in a high-pitched echo combined with the sound of my blood rushing in my
ears. “Anna!”
My whole body shook violently when I
heard a rough baritone voice scream my name in an intense rage. There was no
way I could run from him anymore. Would I die here? Would he take me somewhere
else to prolong my suffering? How long would it take?
Another dark thought. Is this what
Neesa and her mother had seen?
Futilely my eyes closed. If I had to
be conscious, I refused to watch my own death. “Anna! Look at me!” One hand
held onto my shoulder turning me slowly as another hand carefully took a hold
of my chin, tilting it up and making me cough on my own blood.
“No.” Worthlessly defiant. I gurgled
coughing on the blood filling my mouth relentlessly.
“Alright. Just hang on. I’m going to move you,
okay,” his voice filled with laughter. Though weak and painful, it flooded with
the sound of relief.
“No!” The scream was weak and sprayed
blood as I spoke. My hand shot up defensively swiping at his face to try to
push him away from me. The hand at my chin released to take my wrist gently.
