Once Bitten

Once Bitten features Evie Blomquist, a young woman on the run from the vampire coven that killed her mother. After successfully dodging detection for five years (or so she thought), the vampire Dominic shows up on her doorstep, broken, bleeding, and facing certain death with the coming dawn. Evie saves his life - only to have her own thrown into chaos. She soon finds herself thrust back into the vampire world, and it seems every vamp wants a piece of Evie. For Evie isn’t just any human woman - she’s one of the Five. Five human bloodlines prized for their ability to give vampires extra powers: immunity to sunlight, immunity to silver, immunity to staking by any wood other than hawthorn, immunity to holy objects, and the ability to go three days rather than one without feeding. When anti-vampire zealots, the vampire Council, her coven, and even her father descend upon her from all sides, Evie finds Dominic is the only person she can call an ally. The two survive certain destruction at the hands of her coven’s leader, Alfonse, only to be faced with a cliffhanger ending – a third power for Evie.
