ABOUT THE SERIES:
The NEWPORT VAMPIRE STORIES SERIES is a contemporary Vampire Story told with a subtle thread of Catholicism running through it.
It is a story about the lengths to which desperation can drive a vampire to possess the one he loves.
For Ciara, who felt unloved and unnoticed in the world all of her life, it’s a story of love and being chosen.
For Darius, it is a story of the power, control and manipulation he developed in his quest for blood, love and loyalty.
Ultimately, Darius must learn to give up up control and manipulation in order to find true love.
Each book can be read separately as each story has a beginning, middle and end. But they are best read in order to follow the full character arcs.
