Abandoned

In the Night #1

Holly learns that her Uncle Steve, who her drunken parents refuse to believe molested her, is moving into her brother's old room. She decides she must move. So she gets a job at Rule the Night and feels she has finally found a place where she fits in. The cute guy from school, Parker, becomes more than just a fellow employee. But then she notices some strange behavior at the nightclub. Despite Parker's distracting presence, she realizes something is wrong. Too late she realizes the secret is a nest of vampires. She is attacked and must be turned in order to save her life. She awakens with an acute thirst and an entirely new existence. That existence still includes her love for Parker, but with each kiss her desire for her all too human sweetheart is tempered with her thirst. Where can their relationship go from there?

Great Story

I am not be a sci-fi guy, but this story grabbed me. I really enjoyed the characters and plot. It was hard to put down. I highly recommended.

Overall a great book. I could see how the unpleasant stuff in the beginning really helped shape the characters as the plot progressed. The main characters were likeable and I enjoyed the plot. Five glittery stars.
