The intellectual challenge of college and the warm embrace of a serious boyfriend have given Maya the wings she needs to break away from her bookish and shy reserve. Her ideal life comes crashing down when she and her boyfriend are accosted by a stranger. A stranger with glowing hands.

Maya's boyfriend is killed. She is kidnapped. Changed.

 The intellectual challenge of college and the warm embrace of a serious boyfriend have given Maya the wings she needs to break away from her bookish and shy reserve. Her ideal life comes crashing down when she and her boyfriend are accosted by a stranger.  A stranger with glowing hands.

 

Maya's boyfriend is killed. She is kidnapped. Changed.

 

A rescue comes, but not soon enough.

 

Maya’s senses sharpen, her body becomes strong and agile, and she develops the ability to visually see the emotions of those around her as colorful auras…beautiful auras…tempting auras.

 

And then there’s the song…

 

Now, Maya must struggle to control the murderous appetite that fuels her new abilities, accept her altered condition and learn to trust two vigilante half-brothers she never knew she had as she joins them in their battle against a secret network of powerful and destructive beings that call themselves "Angels".  Also on Maya's to-do list: a good helping of bloody revenge against the one who changed her.

 

On the bright side, at least Maya's oldest half-brother has stopped trying to kill her. 



Excerpt

I may be a monster. I’m not exactly sure yet. A strange thing to think, but I wonder if you can have something evil inside of you without being evil yourself. Perhaps you can think about doing something terrible—maybe even want it so bad the pen in your trembling hand keeps bleeding ink through the page—but if you don’t actually commit the act, then you’re not really guilty. At least this is what I have to believe. Especially now, right now, because the hunger has me. All of me.
