VHP SIGNS AUTHOR AND ARTIST SARAH NATALIA LEE FOR SAVING AMY
Seattle, WA, March 14, 2008—Vanilla Heart Publishing is pleased to announce their signing Sarah Natalia Lee for her newest novel, Saving Amy.
Saving Amy, a tale of finding love in a graveyard; love between a beautiful, ageless vampiress and a teenaged girl thrown into her father’s home - a father she barely remembers – by the untimely death of her mother. As Emma and her sisters try to adjust to their new family life, she searches for love, acceptance, joy, and finds all of these and more. Emma and Amy face many dangers together and must break the grip of Madam Noctis, the vampire who stole Amy’s soul years before.
From Saving Amy:
The park has grown tiring, but it’s still very early and I do not yet want to return to my grave for sleep lest I wake before the sun is down and feel the desperate need to stretch. I sit against the fence surrounding the graveyard, the cold iron bars pressing into my back. Sensations of fear rush throughout me. Even though it has been five years, the idea of my life as an undead still terrifies and pains me. I miss home. I miss Mommy, Daddy, Nathan, and Kelly. I miss all my friends at my school and all my distant relatives. I know they miss me, too. Oh, why did I have to be taken away from all that I held so dear? Why, why, why?
Voices echo behind me. I gasp and try to remain positively frozen, clasping one hand over my mouth. Soon, the voices become coherent, and I strain to hear what is being spoken.
"I’m telling you, Madam, I think that Amy girl is incomplete."
"And whatever makes you say that, Jason?"
"She’s just not like the rest of us. She’s never visibly stricken with thirst for blood, she never speaks of her feeds, she’s terrified of everything. I’ve also seen her swinging at the park and when we speak to her of drinking blood, she cringes and pushes us aside. It’s like she hates being undead. I think she’s still part human."
"No vampire, complete or otherwise, can still be ’part human’, Jason. Now you know I am the one who took Amy and that I never let any of my victims become incomplete unless they are anemic. You know my rules, Jason. And believe me, I am quite familiar with anemic blood. There is no possible way Amy is anemic; her blood is some of the richest I’ve ever tasted."
