Valeria was married to Count Dracular, she never wanted to be a monster by monster I mean a vampire. Valeria was 1st of 3 wives well four if you want to count the last one whose husband was a vampire slayer and killed the other wives. Illona begged Valeria to take care of her son no matter what, and by some crazy reason the slayer didn’t kill Valeria, and Valeria went back to the house to save Emil.
14 years later Valeria has cared for Emil like a mother would never letting harm come to him he was sheltered unless you call knowing everything about being a vampire is being sheltered. Nephew and aunt more as mother and son grew very close they lived in a cabin in the woods far away from anyone. She had thought that Emil needed to learn a trade so they moved to Brasov. Emil and Valeria went and bought new clothes to fit in and a nice house, Emil thrived there they became known in Brasov for the better. Emil got a job at a printing house he really liked his job he was fitting in nicely.
One day Emil came home from work rather ticked off in he walked and showed a book he had to her it was written by a man name Stoker, he told of a child being brought into Dracular’s castle and his real mother left to get eaten by wolves , he asked if he has brothers or sisters. Emil was so mad he who adored Ilona called her a whore! Valeria slapped him and he told her to get out, she wasn’t welcomed.
Valeria retreated to the woods into the snowed in cabin she stayed for quite a while before she even fed she had hit rock bottom, she even visioned the count. When she just about had it she thought revenge on the slayer revenge on the author of the book to bring this upon Emil the way he did. So she ditched the trunk full of her belongings and made up a knapsack of what she needed and away she went BEGIN AGAIN as Emil told her…….
Valeria ended up in France where she met Lamond she met him one night intending to kill him but she soon found that he changed, and they had a whirlwind time in France a little too much fun just what she needed soon Lamond couldn’t hold her back she was restless and she needed the revenge would she succeed or will she hunt them down or will she be the hunted?
This book was amazing!! Valeria is such a strong character and to see her almost break was heartbreaking. Faith makes the task of sucking blood out of a host sensual and breathtaking. Faith has a way with words!

Id give this book 7 stars. this book by first time author Faith Marlow was out of this world. Dracular has taken 4 wives, Valeria, was #1 who was furious to find in her home Ilona #2 and they despised #3 Fleur. and #4 just got close when the first 3 tried to kill her.
This story is about the love of these woman had for Dracular and his love for them, also the hard times threat came upon them. Dracular loved to move around to different countries and stay for years, either with all his wives or just the one he found in a certain country. as the wives lived together they eventually banned together so mess with one, mess with all. you'll truly love this book.

                           Author interview with Nikki Rae

Nikki is also the author of two other novels Sunshine and Sun Poison.

Hi Nikki, thanks for stopping by you’ve been a busy woman! 

Q.  What’s is the Genre of Sunshine, Sun Poisoned, and Sun Damage?

A. The Sunshine Series is dark paranormal romance. The series starts off with Sunshine, which is in the Young Adult genre, and moves more into New Adult as the series goes on.

Q. What inspired you to write the sunshine series?

A. I always wanted to write a vampire book (and it turned into a series), but I didn't get any ideas as to how to go about it, so I let it sit on the back burner. Then my family went on vacation and I got terrible sun poisoning, which started the gears turning on the main character, Sophie.

Q. Did you write a lot when you were a child?

A. I wrote some. What I did more was tell stories to the other kids. I liked trying to convince them that gargoyles and ghosts were real. Writing was a logical step, but it took me a long time to put two and two together.

Q. When did you know you were going to be an author? 

A. I think when I finished Sunshine...which was over five years ago. I was sharing it with close friends who were helping me edit and revise it, and they wanted me to go for it. However, I don't think I considered myself an author until complete strangers started calling me that. Even now, it kind of catches me off guard once in a while. 

Q. Does music play a big part in your life like the main character Sophie? I notice all the quoted music at the beginning of each chapter. And if so what type do you listen to?

A. Not as big of a role, since Sophie is a musician and sees everything in music, but yes. I definitely love music. The type of music quoted in the beginnings of the chapters are what I used as a sound track for that particular book. Most of the bands I listen to a lot, while some are thrown in because Sophie or Myles likes it.

Q. What does your writing space consist of? And where do you write?

A. My writing space either consists of my black notebook and a pen anywhere I happen to be or my computer in my room, which sits on a desk filled with Halloween decorations and Christmas lights.

Q. Did you feel emotional when you wrote the emotional parts?

A. Of course. Seeing these characters open up, grow, and take control has been the best part about writing this series. I grew with them. I became a part of their world, watching everything and writing it down as it happened. If I didn't feel anything, the emotions would come off as false to the reader, and I'm not trying to trick anyone into feeling anything. If someone gets emotional over a scene, it's because they're just as invested into the characters and the story as I am. : )

Q. Last but not least. What advice would you give to a first time author?

A. Congratulations! Now listen, you're going to have a lot of fun. And stress. And sleepless nights and worries, maybe some of your friends and family with have to talk you off of a ledge now and then. But that's okay. Don't doubt. Just do. It'll be okay. Also, breathing helps. : )

Thank you so much for stopping by Congratulations on your series!

Life wasn't what Sophie was expecting, so why should death be any different?
She’s come back from swimming between the two, and every problem she left is still there. And then some.
There’s the human world, where she has a brother on the verge of ruins, band mates all set to go on tour, and people she thought she wouldn't be seeing for a long time showing up.
Then there’s her new world, where she’s seeing and hearing things that should not be heard or seen. Where Myles knows more about her than she could have ever guessed. She still doesn't know exactly why Michael is tormenting her, but somehow, everything is connected.
The monsters are closing in on all sides and the question is, will Sophie be able to defeat them before it all ends?

Come to see the news release to see what the buzz is about at
