Enraged beyond reason at his returned wife's death, Paul has set his sights not only back on Salem, but on his own daughter Alexis as well. Having little other choice than abandoning their home, Alex, Salem, and Hannah begin to flee to an unknown location.
After a drop of Alex's blood streaks down her beloved book from her foster mother, the pages transform into a long kept secret journal. Inside what at first seems to be little more than a diary of an ancient vampire slayer, the trio find more than just hunting techniques. Locked within its pages contains hope of a cure, and a promise of a normal life.
Will Alex be able to decipher the journal and reach salvation before her vampiric side becomes too hard to control? Can Hannah really be trusted after what she has done? And is Salem really ready to sacrifice all for a normal life?
K.A. Poe's books aim to remedy the limp, helpless heroine that plagues many paranormal and urban fantasy novels by introducing strong, kick-ass female leads. Combining suspense and adventure with non-explicit romance, her Nevermore and Forevermore series have enticed hundreds of thousands of readers. From vampires to witches and werewolves, you will find what hundreds of five-star reviews confirm - once you join the adventure, you'll never want to stop.
She resides in Indiana with her husband and daughter. Accompanying the trio is K.A. Poe's writing assistant Aries (who happens to be a cat and doesn't do much in the way of assisting or writing, unless you consider sleeping on the keyboard helpful... ) and their two other furry companions - Lyra and Gemini.
I gave it two stars out of respect of some good ideas--there are some good ideas/plot twists, but the limited grasp of vocabulary and dropping of ideas or facts that was started earlier in the story is irritating. The misspellings are horrendous. Several situations in the book are so unrealistic, that it is difficult to continue reading. 70% of the time, these books read like a somewhat talented, yet inexperienced sixteen year old wrote them... To be fair, I am an adult reading a young adult book, so maybe my expectations are too high.....
This is a perfectly apt title. Alex has gained a lot, but has also lost so much, and she can no longer cry. Will she give up even more for her true love, the vampire Salem?
