About this listen
I’m an ordinary girl ... but a brooding vampire is about to turn my world upside down
Christopher Deverell is caretaker of the Red Claw Family, a brood of vampires so blood-thirsty that they were forced into slumber for a century by the Council of Elders.
Nell Cartwright’s life has been torn apart after the tragic deaths of her parents. Desperate, she turns to her reclusive aunt in Angel Falls.
Not all is as it seems in the small town … and now an ancient evil is awakening ... as well as her feelings for an enigmatic vampire.
Christopher and Nell are plunged into a dangerous world where Old Magick and supernatural creatures make for heart-stopping adventure.
Anya Kelner has created a thrilling, suspenseful and heart-warming saga set in a rich world of mystery and danger.

Story
Lyssandra’s life is a lie. As a hunter of the Helius Order, she’s dedicated to slaying vampires and protecting the innocent. But she’s also a vampire’s human servant. If her secret comes out, her own order will execute her. When she finds Asher, she’ll cut out his heart for tying her to him, even if he only did it to save her. Even if it kills her too. But when a young girl is found dead, Lyssandra’s mission is derailed. In the gaping hole where the girl’s heart once was, lies a single red rose. Lyssandra has seen the signature before.

Plucked out of the Collector’s Pens, auctioned off to a vampire contingent, and sent across the ocean to the Alpha Territories was not exactly how I planned to spend my week. Actually, scratch that. I had planned the first bit. But I was supposed to be sold to the werewolves so I could save my friend from a fate worse than death. Instead, the bloodsuckers have me and so far? It's not going great. I've been shoved into a corset and made to look like an extra on the cast of Bridgerton, all to take part in the Harvest Games....

I experience a pull so deep and so undeniable, that when I look up and meet the eyes of a waitress, our gazes lock. Recognition sparks between us. In an instant, I’m sure. This woman is mine. I can tell my parents sense the connection, too. But judging by their expressions, they know something I don’t. Like me, they’re aware she’s special. But the fear in their eyes tells me she’s the last person on Earth they want to be my mate...

Mav disappeared before I could ever tell him about the child I carried. I’ve had years to get over him, and I’ve tried. But the second I see him again my heart lurches and it’s like all that time evaporates. I still burn for him, even though I know it’s a bad idea. I try to remind myself about the bad things: his possessiveness, his quick temper...but he’s different now. More mature. Protective. Settled. And hiding something. Something bigger than the child we share.

For the last seven years, I’d been certain of my purpose and what I desired most in this world. At least I was until Maciah West inserts himself into my life, telling me I’m the one thing I hate most in this world: a vampire.As crazy as I find his revelation, I decide it’s better to indulge this particularly sexy vampire. All while trying to deny the way he makes me feel and the words he insists are true. It isn’t until my past finds its way back into the present that I begin to realize I no longer have a choice in believing Maciah.

Of two things I'm certain: When something sounds too good to be true, it is; and when Alexius Del Rossa makes you a deal, you run far away and never look back. Me? I didn't run. I stayed. I opened that envelope, and I accepted his offer. Why? Because my life was a mess and on a downward spiral to a big, fat nothing. And he just offered me everything in exchange for six months of my life. It was supposed to be a simple arrangement, but I learned the hard way that nothing is simple when it comes to Alexius.

Story
Six years ago, I awoke in a cage with no knowledge of who I was or where I’d come from. Six years ago, I was spared the flesh markets and instead thrown in with a group of savages, where I learned it was fight or die. Now, eight Orders of Assassins are converging on the only home I’ve ever known. All in hopes of purchasing new blade slaves for their ranks. I’m for sale, yet all I want is a life far from death and ownership. Then I meet them, the Order of Scorpions. Their allure is a threat to the freedom I crave, but I won’t fall victim to their sting, no matter how tempting it might be.

I want hours of my life back!
i hate being negative, but here it goes and i will identify the positives as well. The story lacks a strong plot. it has one that i thought was going to be good but not much was done with it. the editing, however, was spot on, and probably as close to perfect as one can get. I fell asleep several times during the book, would wake up and have to backtrack to where I left off. the main characters are developed pretty ok "ish". it was more like a well done OUTLINE of a book, than an actual book. I really only finished it because I paid for it.
My Suggestions: Pull the current version of the book OFF the shelves & site. Spend more time developing the characters, plot, and audience/character connection. we need to identify with the feelings of the characters. As in : introduce us, seduce us, intrigue us, hook us, yo-yo our emotions, make us struggle with sides, and keep us guessing. this book has a lot of potential, but as is, is just sleepy material. I will NOT be continuing the series as i seriously regret the money I spent on this one. HOWEVER, I DO NOT WISH TO DISCOURAGE the AUTHOR. UNIQUE IDEAS are HARD to FIND. I WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE the AUTHOR to take another look at it, don't just add filler, look at SUGGESTIONS ABOVE, and if you have friends you TRUST to be HONEST with you about the good & the BAD, you could start a brain storming group to get fresh ideas and above ALL TRUTH. If you need help, I'm AVAILABLE, ONLY because I see POTENTIAL HERE that could be great with some HELP, But you'll need a group of brain storming honest people. variety is the spice of life and diversified opinions can improve this so much. I truly wish you the best of luck. take this down and add some quality and turn it into a best seller!
