Synopsis:
Elizabeth is a brilliant loner with a troubling secret she
doesn't even know. As if the trauma of her mother being abducted before her
eyes as a young girl wasn't enough, the small town she lives in thinks she’s
crazy. That all changed when she met Michael, a mysterious and handsome man who
identified with her like no one else before. Michael’s long time friend Vincent
visits and drops the bombshell of a lifetime on Elizabeth and her world becomes
completely unraveled.
Vincent’s information has revealed the world for what it is;
a place where the impossible is real, and myths and legends walk slyly in
shadow. A world that Elizabeth will learn she too is a member. Now, the three
are caught up in a thousand year long conspiracy they never could have imagined.
The three must rely on one another and the secret connection they all share if
they have a chance to survive.

Elizabeth McBeth
a.k.a. Liz, Izzy, Lizzy
Age: 19
Height: 5’4”
Weight: 120 lbs
Eyes: Green
Hair: Blonde
Traits: Extremely
perceptive and intelligent. Liz possesses a very strong conviction of what is
right and wrong. It is this sense of ethics that has her constantly questioning
what is right and wrong. A little insecure and a bit of a whiner, Liz is very
brave. Always willing to put herself in danger in order to help out others.
Elizabeth McBeth is
just what you would expect from any girl next door. She’s sweet, caring, and
honest. She’s even got one of the sharpest young minds in the country. But she
also has a secret that she has to live with. The horrible truth about her
mother’s disappearance ten years ago… the whole reason why she studies the
paranormal and goes out at night. Her mother’s disappearance has gravely hurt
her life. She has to take care of her father, constant trips to the shrink and
everyone looking at her like she’s a kook. Her life was pretty much going
status quo until she met Michael while working at Jack’s Place Bar and Grill.
Michael Clark a.k.a
Michael the Ironskin
Age: Approximately 535
years old
Height: 6’8”
Weight: 308 lbs while
in his human form
Eyes: Jade green
Hair: Black
Traits: Michael is a
man from a different era. As a man who was originally born in Italy, he
maintains the values of his upbringing. Honesty, honor, fair play and an
emphasis on strategy; all of these are held in the highest of regards for the
decorated werewolf. His nature and the role he plays in conserving nature’s
balance make him very careful in choosing his friends. Michael is truly one of
the most selfless beings ever to walk the Earth, but his role forces him to
keep his existence a secret.
Michael is a mystery
to Liz, who is just tugging away layers from his handsome facade, desperately
trying to uncover his secret. But what Liz doesn’t know, what she couldn’t
possibly even suspect is that Michael is a werewolf. But unlike fictional
werewolves, Michael is responsible for the order and balance of nature. It is
Michael’s sole responsibility to make sure that the world of man and the world
behind the veil, where the true world lies, never cause chaos to one another.
But chaos follows Michael’s closest friend, Vincenzo Della Rosa, wherever he
goes…
Vincenzo Della Rosa
a.k.a. Vincent, The Traitor
Age: Exact age is
unknown, even to him. Approximately 1700 years old
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 205 lbs
Eyes: Sapphire blue
Hair: Golden blonde
Traits: Loud,
condescending, sarcastic, and sometimes even outright insulting, Vincent is a
force to be reckoned with. His time alive has made him very distant, even a
little cold. But his aloof nature is a stark opposite of what he is really like
inside. He is a fiercely loyal man who always puts others ahead of himself. His
great insecurity comes from a great failure in his life, one that he may never
forgive himself for….
Vincenzo Della Rosa,
Vincent to everyone but his friends, isn’t your everyday hero. He’s sarcastic,
lazy, and a shameless alcoholic. But what Liz, and even Michael, will learn is
that Vincent himself hides behind those traits to mask a very deep pain. A pain
that Liz is inexplicably connected to. This truth will make Vincent’s other
secrets, including the fact that he is a 1700 year old vampire, seem small in
comparison. But even with all of that in mind, if Vincent is the most powerful
of his kind, why doesn’t he rule all of vampire society? The world might not be
able to handle the truth.
Such great characters. I loved this book. I give this book a five star review. Liz is flung into a supernatural world and finds herself fallig in love with a vampire and a werewolf. The guys are in love with her and feel it is their duty to protect her. I like how the guys don't force her to chose. All three of them become good friends and work together to save the day.
EXCERPT
At
this point, I’m not even sure I want to go anywhere. This place looks great to
me. But should I give in to temptation? Or should I take some time and weigh my
options? It’s just a kiss after all, right?
“I can sense your hesitation,” Michael
says as he moves away from me. “But…in all honesty, I can’t take it anymore. I
don’t want to resist you anymore.”
Michael moves back to my face and gives me
a slow gentle kiss on my lips. His kisses are tender and gentle. I grab the
back of his head and refuse to let him go.
This is one of my favorite scenes in the book.
