Description
How far would you go to get answers? Become ‘bait’ to an insufferable, blood-seeking vampire or perhaps the source of amusement to a smug insensitive Kelpie? Both are determined to ensnare you inside their world of lustful lies. For eighteen year old Cassie Ellis, things were meant to be simple. She was in love with her best friend, worked hard in her part-time jobs and she had her own secrets that she had long-since sealed off with a closed heart. Her life was finally starting to piece together again, leaving her grief-ridden past behind for good. It was all going so well until a twist of events caused her to become unwillingly ‘recruited’ by an expanding team of remarkable beings and an organization known as the ‘Ark’. A society that’s brimming with Kelpie, demons, witches and vampires that are dedicated to the protection of newly developed immortals within the human world against the malicious intentions of the Puritines. Refusing to get tangled up in their world of deception, Cassie inexplicably finds herself as bait! Now she has no choice but to reluctantly accept what others may see as a deal of a lifetime by becoming the newly appointed secretary to an immature, arrogant and potentially dangerous vampire in order to lure him in as a sponsor! Things can only end badly with the immortals holding their own dark secrets from her. Could it be possible that the only hint that she may ever have to move forward, actually lies somewhere in the memories of her past? Now Cassie is determined to find out what truly happened to her mother whilst she struggles to evade the persistent personality of her employer, juggle friendship and deny the Kelpie that appears to be set on making her his new toy for his own source of entertainment. All of a sudden, a normal life seems very far from reality.
