Darkness Awakened

by Tori Minard

Overview

Merciless killer Obsidian never met a rogue vampire he wasn't eager to assassinate. Until the beautiful Kayla Chandler enters his life. Her vulnerability and courage touch a part of him he thinks lost forever--his heart. Although he believes himself unworthy of her, Kayla loves the compassionate hero who lies beneath the ruinous violence of his profession.

When the empress of vampires orders Obsidian to murder Kayla, he refuses. With ruthless killers on their trail, they flee west toward the only shelter for those who defy the Dark Empire...a legendary stronghold which may be more fable than fact.

About the Author

Tori Minard wrote her first story in pencil, sans paragraph breaks and quotation marks, for a third-grade class assignment. It was the dark and moving tale of a Halloween pumpkin. Unfortunately, the details of this gem have been lost to time. Her next story featured a large black dog who was really a demon in disguise. Apparently, Tori was born in paranormal mode.
Three years later, it dawned on her that she didn't have to wait for the teacher's permission to write fiction. She spent the entirety of her peculiar adolescence writing weird and romantic stories which embarrassed her parents and got her in trouble at school. Unfortunately for her ego, the teachers merely thought she was writing letters to friends.
Letters to friends! C'mon, this is dark, creative proto-Goth girl. Why would she write letters to friends when she could bring forth post-apocalyptic romances instead?
After a long detour for such grown-up pursuits as working boring full-time jobs (State of Alaska, U.S. Postal Service), getting married and having a child, she returned to her first love-storytelling. She was born and raised in Alaska, and now lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, son, and micro-dog. Her novels include The Amaki series, about sexy fae, and a vampire romance series, Legends Of A Dark Empire.
