Thriller Paranormal - Supernatural

With the vampire Armageddon on the horizon, a special breed of vampires are infecting the population in an effort to take over. Jesse Burke and her twin have been bitten. Amanda dies to rise again as a vampire but Jesse, for some reason, does not succumb to the infection. Her fate is living to slay the Talave vampires and find the demise of her twin.

After a year of learning how to slay the demonic undead, she is nearly overcome in the process by a newly turned Talave except for the interference of Maddox deValois. The centuries old Palindrome, a sentinel, is here to fight the Talave. Recognizing the 3 intertwined circles present on Jesse as symbolizing God's eternal vow of a savior to protect against evil, he believes The Enlightened One has bestowed that privilege on Jesse. Taken under his wing along with Reyen and Sam, they are four against the evil in New Orleans. Even though Jesse has to fight the demon inside her, she joins forces until being captured by the demon Queen Amonate who plans to impregnate her by Xaphan. Thus she will turn to the darkness within and aid them in their Armageddon.

DARKNESS DESCENDING is the first in the Vampire Armageddon series. Filled with captivating excitement and chilling thrills, this book will keep you on the edge of your seat. The heroine is a woman that will fight to the end to deny becoming "one of them" with all the fury and hatred she possesses. This is an extremely fast paced story that will keep you alert and waiting for the next word. I look forward to the future novels in this series as this creative writer continues the story.
