Meadow Collins was a shut-in high schooler that secretly loved to party behind her mother’s back, but one night—as she waited in line at her local club—trouble started brewing when she noticed a hot, young man walk into the club right behind the guard.

A teenage boy that no one could see.

As curiosity got the better of her, Meadow decided to question the man.

That was her first mistake.

Only the next day, Meadow finds herself walking through a city of vampires, werewolves, and witches, but Ash was something different.

He was a hunter, an angelic hunter, known as the Nightshade.

When Meadow’s life is in danger after her mother had vanished, she finds herself turning to Ash, teaming up with the hunter to save herself from the many assassins planning her death.

But what she didn’t know... was that she had a past with the angelic hunter, a past that was long lost in her memories.

As all the shadows from her past cast down upon her, she finds the curiosity of what she and Ash had, suffocating, and started wandering closer and closer to him.

Until closer... wasn’t close enough.

The Eleventh Hour is a young adult paranormal romance between two teens, one of which is a killer of assassins, and the other something she had yet to discover. Find out what happens when two opposites clash.

“Drip, Drip, Drip,” Mason said in her ear, his touch burning her skin like acid. “So red. So sweet, but yet so bitter.”

She winced when he ran the tip of the blade over the already open cut. “Stop....”

“Now,” he said quietly, though menacingly, “are you going to come willingly? Or will I have to kill everyone in this room and have you watch?”

She opened her eyes, finding the school empty.

But there’s... no one.

Then a voice entered her ears. “Let her go, you bastard.”

Malachi.

In a Northern Ireland temple, pain ceased to exist for whomever entered it. No pain, no disease, not even discomfort. Nobody knew why. When they found out, they realized there was a heavy prize to pay and it's not what you think.

Promises of our own

To ourselves

Promises made to

The other people

Will cut it down

By time

That’s the hardest thing seen

In a mighty bit of people’s Life

Everyone made promises every day

Is it possible to carry them away

The lightness through your skin

You will lose them up right away

Why did you make promises to yourselves

And

Why did you make promises to the people

Then you should learn that way

Hats off to the persons

Who did the thing

At the last moment

It’s will be yours to handle
