My Immortal Embrace

Book excerpt: Turning twenty-one should be one of the highlights in Carmen Elaine Miller's young life. But she begins to notice some strange and inexplicable changes in herself; she feels as if she's becoming a freak. She soon discovers the source of her discomfort, and she's not prepared for the repercussions. While celebrating her benchmark birthday at the popular new hangout in Jefferson County, Texas, The Crimson Club, she meets the handsome and mysterious owner, twenty-three-year-old Bishop Theriot. Carmen feels a mysterious pull toward this man. He reveals that not only is he a vampire, but that she is a hybrid between a vampire and a werewolf, and that she alone holds the cure to undoing the curse that ails him. In addition, Bishop discloses that Carmen's boyfriend, Dys, is a werewolf who has been assigned to keep an eye on her. Her life may be in danger. Not only must Carmen deal with the great physical changes that will leave her with keen eyesight, incredible strength, and the ability to mind read, but she must decide which man she can trust to keep her safe.
