Summary:
Independent and strong-willed Della Tsang hadn’t believed in ghosts until she saw her dead cousin darting into the shadows of an alley. She hadn’t believed in vampires until in the dark of that same night she is turned into one. Introduced to a strange world of supernaturals, she struggles to accept this new reality. Unfortunately, the boy she loves senses something different about her and can’t accept her. Should she follow her vampire cousin’s lead-walk away from everything she’s knows and loves-and fake her own death? Or should she set her pride aside and ask for help from the camp leader of Shadow Falls-a camp where supernaturals go to learn how to cope with their powers. Either way, her life as she knows it, will never be the same.
Review:
This week, I’ve got another C.C. Hunter book for you. And in case you’re not excited enough, it’s a novella from the Shadow Falls Series!
Last week, I mentioned Kylie (the protagonist of Born At Midnight)’s friend Della. Well guess what? This one’s all about Della!
Della, the resident vampire at Shadow Falls summer camp, is such a character. The moment I read about her in Born at Midnight, I knew I’d love hearing her side of the story!
Della was recently turned into a vamp, and Turned at Darkfocuses on her experience as she tries tries to find her place in the vampire world. Della wasn’t bitten or anything, so there’s none of that super sneaky vampire stalking going on. In Hunter’s books, vampires are born with the virus and it can only be activated by another vamp. And in case you’re hoping I’ll tell you how it gets activated, don’t even think about it! You’ve gotta read the book to find that one out.
I really hope you enjoy Della as much as I did. She’s a character overflowing with spunk, and such a devoted person. I look forward to learning more about her in future books!
Starting TODAY, you have the chance to get your hands on Turned At Dark before Born At Midnight even comes out. Find out how RIGHT HERE
