SIGNED: Nearly Dead (Merely Mortal #4) Paperback
Signed Print. Urban Fantasy Romance. Book Four in the Merely Mortal series. Paranormal Romance, Urban Fantasy.
I'm no longer mortal. That wasn't supposed to happen.
One bite. One choice that isn't mine to make. And now there's something wrong inside me. Something that doesn't have a name yet. Something that wakes up hungry and furious and not quite human.
Costin says he saved me. Maybe he believes that. What I know is he turned me into something I never asked to become, and he knew exactly what he was doing when he did it. He broke his promise.
And I still can't stop wanting him. That might be the worst part.
My body is at war with itself. The supernatural council is asking questions that sound a lot like a verdict. My family handles me like I'm made of explosives, and honestly, they're right. The hunger keeps growing. So does the rage.
I spent my whole life as the mortal girl in a room full of monsters. The weakest one. The one with the expiration date. Now I am the monster. And if I don't figure out what I am, and fast, I'm going to destroy everything and everyone I've been fighting to protect.
Including the master vampire willing to burn the world for me.
I was born the mortal mistake. Now I'm something even vampires are afraid of.
