My name is Sorina Killian , and when I was awakened into this life all things from my mortal life disappeared. My image still holds the face of my mortality, but the animal inside of me makes sure that I am not. Throughout my mortal life I knew about vampyres, as teenager I was fascinated by them. I was twenty-one years of age, when I was awakened to the darkness. Everything changed in a heartbeat. Do I regret the events that had taken place? Yes, I do. My dreams died alongside my mortal life. Just because you become a vampyre doesn’t mean you forget the past. Even now as I sit here in Jackson Square, I wish that I could change what had happened. When you read my story I hope you understand that if you find yourself in awe by the beauty of the person next to you, remember that they might not be has human as you think.

This novella, the second book from Miller introduces some interesting new characters, Drakon and Sorina, as well as tying in characters from her previous novel Catriona the Immortal. The characters parallel those of the main characters in Catriona without overlapping, although several supporting characters appear in both. I can't wait for the characters to eventually meet as the different storylines start to tie in. It will be interesting to see where her books go from here as the author develops a complete world.

Sorina is a different kind of heroine, in that she is given the dark gifts of immortality as a vampiric power, when all she wants is the life she had as a mortal. Deeply in love and on the verge of beginning the life she has always dreamed of, Sorina has this "mundane" reality ripped away by Drakon. Rather than damnation being an abstract concept of the soul's taint, Sorina's hell is very real, as she watches the life she longed for slip away.
