SAMPLE CHAPTERS


Looking back on it later, Claire thought she should have known trouble was coming, but really, in Morganville, anything could be trouble. Your college professor doesn’t onyesha for class? Probably got fanged kwa vampires. Takeout forgets to put onions on your hamburger? The regular kitunguu delivery guy disappeared – again, probably due to vampires. And so on. For a college town, Morganville had a remarkable lot of vampires.


Claire was an authority on all those subjects: Texas Prairie University, and of course, the vampires. And mysterious disappearances. She’d almost been one...

It was late, and they were all tired, and her head hurt. She fell asleep on the couch, and Shane finally woke her and told her to go to bed. She wanted to stay with him, but she knew she shouldn’t, not when she was trying to think, and her head hurt so badly.

She didn’t remember getting upstairs to her room, but she must...

Shane and Claire were bound to find each other at some point because two people who fit together so well have to be together. There is Shane, the badass who would never get the parent aproval. Then Claire, the smart one who has zaidi courage than wewe would ever expect! At first glance wewe wouldnt think they were the ultimate match, but look again and wewe will see much more. They are too good together to be far apart. I personally read the book different from everyone else. If wewe look between the lines wewe see the true meanings of the words. They define what upendo is. Morganville is a place full...

CHAPTER 1

“Oh, this doesn’t sound like a good idea,” Claire said, looking down at the paper that had been shoved into her hand kwa a passing student. She paused in the shade of the Science Building porch to read it. Only idiots stood around in full sun at Texas Prairie chuo kikuu, chuo kikuu cha in the middle of the afternoon – well, idiots and football players – and angled herself into a corner so she wouldn’t get buffeted kwa the streams of people pouring out after the end of class. There were a few hardy salmons trying to swim upstream, but she didn’t think they’d make it.

People all around...

Living in West Texas is sort of like living in Hell, but without
the favorable climate and charming people. Living in Morganville,
Texas, is all that and a takeout bag of worse. I
should know. My name is Shane Collins, and I was born here, left
here, came back here—none of which I had much choice about.
So, for wewe fortunate ones who’ve never set foot in this place,
here’s the walking tour of Morganville: It’s nyumbani to a couple of thousand
folks who breathe, and some crazy-ass number of people who
don’t. Vampires. Can’t live with ’em, and in Morganville, wewe definitely
can’t live without...
