Heartsblood

Description

A year has passed. Cassie Cabot has made a powerful new enemy in the ancient Night-Kind called Marcus. She’s also found powerful new friends in a Night-Kind commune called the Reconciliation. One of them, Merrilee Medlocke, is from a bloodline that has a dark and terrifying tie to Cassie’s past. Can Merrilee and the rest of the Reconciliation prove to Cassie that a name is only as strong as the willingness to redeem it, and that the strongest blood of all is indeed HEARTSBLOOD?

A year has passed since Cassie Cabot won the loyalty of most of the Night-Kind in Auburn, Alabama, cleansing the fatal flaw that was breaking down the Change which sustains the vampiric immortality of their kind. She has made a powerful new enemy in the ancient Night-Kind called Marcus, whose masquerade among Auburn’s new-blood Night-Kind was ended when Cassie and her friends drove him from the city.

Cassie has found powerful new friends, though, especially the residents of the Night-Kind commune called the Reconciliation. One of their number, a young woman named Merrilee Medlocke, has come to be nearly a sister to Cassie. But Merrilee’s bloodline has a dark and terrifying tie to Cassie’s past. Can Merrilee and the rest of the Reconciliation prove to Cassie that a name is only as strong as the willingness to redeem it, and that the strongest blood of all is indeed HEARTSBLOOD?
