Creatures of the Night

It’s mid-May 1985, Prince’s “Raspberry Beret” has just dropped and is pounding from boom boxes across the nation. However, that’s not all that has dropped. Corey Quigley’s devotion and trust in his master and blood father, Brent Englewood, are waning. Though Corey was made a vampire decades ago, he is still emotionally vulnerable like a teenage girl. For years, Corey has been struggling under the sadistic rule of his master. Even the bond between him and his blood brother, Shane Coleman, can’t alleviate Brent’s stifling hold on him.

A birthday bash served with cruel and debasing delights is the last brick to slip from a wall of commitment, with everything tumbling down. Taking to the night, Corey escapes to a rough and impoverished neighborhood hoping to get lost among the lycan riff raff. While settling into his new gritty residence, his sights are trained on a local girl, Natasha Parks. Building a relationship with her is not wise, but smarts have never been Corey’s strong suit. Things only become more hectic when Shane shows up.

Corey struggles with the pendulum of his heart and his fear of being dragged back to Brent. The only thing Corey is completely sure of is that he doesn’t want to feel pain anymore and will do anything to thwart its return. Will Corey stay afloat, or is it his destiny to drown? Let’s turn the page and find out. Happy reading.
