Book Blurb

It’s been three decades since Sophia’s brother left, and she is unsure if she’ll ever get over it. That is until her family moves to Wenham, MA. She and her siblings have been given orders to protect their littlest sister, and must return to a High School existence. This is where Sophia meets her soul mate, Nathanial, and life as she knows it is about to change... As a vampire, Sophia always kept to herself. As a student, will she start to step out of her comfort zone? She’s found a best friend in a powerful, young witch, and a love to call her own. But when tragedy occurs and blood is spilt, will Sophia be able to resist the sweet scent of her beloved? This breathtaking introduction into Blackwell’s paranormal romance book saga wraps mortals, vampires, witches, and other supernal themes into a dramatic tale of passions versus pitfalls, love versus loyalty, and the essence of family. This is Sophia’s story — the story of a girl who finds herself when she thought all was lost.

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala

Sophia lives with her twin brother Alex and has been accepted into the Pierce family.  They have lost their brother Caspian when he chose to leave as a punishment for losing control.  Now they have moved back to Wenham after being gone for years.  Sophia is a character that keeps everyone at arms link.  Caspian has been gone and no one knows if he will ever come back.  The pierce family has a secret in that they are a family of vampires.  They must live among humans to hide themselves.

The story is about Sophia literally bumping into her soulmate.  Nathaniel is a fellow student in her class.  He bumps into her in the hallway on the first day of school.  Her life is forever changed as the author throws her into this state of split feelings.  She craves Nate but believes she should stay away from him.  She flips back and forth with her feelings constantly.  Then add in Danica who is the newest member of the family.  Something is going on with her and she proves to be dangerous for the family.  The storyline is an interesting one.  However, Sophia is supposed to be a hundred and thirty years old.  You would think she would act a little more like it.  She came across as pretty immature.  In fact, as I read this book, I felt that the author had to be young.  The flow and how the characters came across wasn’t as smooth as I would have thought.  The story was a good one, but the writing could have been smoother.  I give it a 3 out of 5.
