Learn to be a vampire, to be a warrior, to be the soldier you are capable of being. But consider the possibility that I made a mistake I regret—and that I’ll continue to regret that mistake and try to...
Jeff opened blue eyes, grinned at me. If you’re feeling left out . . . I almost threw out an instinctive no, but I decided to throw him a bone. Oh, Jeff. It’d be too good—you and me. Too powerful, too...

My smart and kind and beautiful girl. He liked to say that, had been saying it for years, and had always put beautiful last. Whether it was true or not, he'd tell me it was the least important of the...
