Novel synopsis:

A vampire lives in the shuttered, circular tower of the creepy old house in town. A vampire who makes promises and grants wishes. Who can change lives with his power. Few know he exists.
When Althea, Devnee, and Lacey meet the vampire, he offers to fulfill their most fervent desires- desires like popularity, beauty, freedom.

But his bargains come with a price.

How much are these girls willing to pay?
How many lives will they destroy?
And is there any way out of this vampire's promise?


What do i say:

Well, the vampire(s) in this novel is/are nothing like the Cullens in the Twilight saga nor do they look like the Salvatores in The Vampire's Diaries. Nothing beautiful and mesmerizing about them. None at all. In fact, they were ugly and evil like err..vampires isupposethisishowavampireshouldlooklike. Their teeth were gray, like foil, their skins were of the colour of mushroom, their teeth were mudgreen, their fingers were very bony yet strong, their lips, so thin and bloodless and their cloaks were gelatinous, sticky and dark like molasses dripping on the floor. They possessed no flesh(?) as if there was nothing solid under those cloak. They drifted around rather like smoke from a fireplace, slow and thick and gray. They adored screaming. Their laughters were pure evil. They often create this damp stinking foul smell in their presence. Often stated that after the "event" was carried out, one will not be hurt, it's just rather tiring. One would simply be rather tuckered out believemethatwouldbeworsethandeathitself. Plus, they can read minds! Wicked creatures!

When you make a deal with a vampire, there's no going back..
