Suckers

A love story with real bite . . . Following an incident that involved accidentally almost-killing her best friend, 18-year-old Gabrielle is sent to stay with her grandmother in a Gothic castle in Whitby for the summer.

She has no choice but to ignore the undeniable attraction between them because Gabby has a secret: she has recently discovered that she's a soucouyant - a bloodthirsty vampire from Caribbean lore with fire powers. As Gabrielle struggles to control her thirst for blood under the guidance of her gran, she joins a secret support group of other young vampires. Soon, she is settling into her new temporary life in Whitby. Then she meets rebellious, self-loathing Alok, whose adoptive father leads a group of local vampire hunters.

Tensions between vampires and hunters rise as vicious attacks take the small seaside town by storm and Gabrielle finds herself caught in a dangerous love triangle. As worlds collide and secrets unravel, she must face the disastrous consequences of her actions . . . Darker than Twilight and sharper than Euphoria, this steamy vampire romantasy will have readers thirsting for more.
