The Dark Awakening

"This book had me in another world without realizing I'd left my own. I easily found myself lost in this adventure with Mercy, the main character. It's written in a way that feels very genuine and gives you the opportunity to get to know the cast before the fireworks go off, and man, do they go off!"Sarah C., Goodreads reviewTo defeat the vampire who hunts for her blood, she must become the monster she fears most.One year ago, Mercy was the victim of a brutal attack.
