Created
by the First Born, The Night Touched created the bloodlines from which all
modern day vampires descended. Different because of their incredible powers and
advantages in the human world, The Night Touched were a special kind of
vampire. However, they were believed to have died out centuries ago, and had
been reduced to little more than whispers in the vampire world.
Until
now.
Harper
Kemp was the only modern Night Touched in existence. The reasons behind her
creation were unknown and she had been abandoned during her change. Eventually
she was found by Lily and Jason and taught how to handle what she had become.
She learned how to blend in with the human world and even made herself in to
quite the socialite of the New York
City elite scene.
After a
plea for help in her dreams and the dangers of a forbidden love, Harper is sent
down a path to discovery; not only is she not alone, she’s about to face her
worst nightmare – a devastatingly handsome slayer named Silas with a finger on
her non existent pulse.
Reviews
“CELINE is the first book
in the Night Touched Chronicles. This is a series I’m very excited about
because the author takes us back to the roots of vampires from old horror
movies, while still adding a modern twist. Provan's vampires are sophisticated,
intelligent, and calculating. But, make no mistake--there is nothing tame or
vegetarian about these vampires, particularly the Night Touched … This
fast-paced story is full of tension, passion, and surprises. Once I began
reading, I couldn’t stop and read it within a matter of a few hours. This is
easily one of the most engaging vampire stories I've read in a long time and I
would recommend it to both old-school vampire fans and to Twilight lovers
alike.”--triciaATW (Amazon)
“I received this book free
from the author in exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this book from the
very beginning. The cover is stunning! This book had a way about it. It was an
easy read because it was action packed and kept the reader interested. I liked
how there are two types of vampires and I found the background about each type
very interesting. I also liked how the author incorporated other supernatural
beings, but they didn't take away from the vampires. … All in all, this was a
great start to the trilogy. I can’t wait to read more and find out where the
story leads. I would recommend this book to vampire lovers. I look forward to
the rest of the series.”--Justine (Goodreads)
Excerpt
Celine (The Nigh Touched Chronicles #1)
by Maegan Provan
She
took Lily by the arm and I quietly followed out to the outdoor lounge area. As
we sat around the fire pit, a ruggedly handsome man caught my eye. He was
leaning on the ledge, smoking a cigarette and staring out over the city. His
ash blonde hair was spiked forward in a messy faux-hawk. He seemed as though he
was deep in thought, his brow furrowed like he was trying to think of a question
he wanted to ask but he couldn’t quite remember what it was or who the question
was meant for.
“Oh
good, Silas is still here. Harper, I simply must introduce you to him.” Misty
must have noticed my staring. “Silas! Come here, darling, I have someone I want
you to meet.”
He
sighed heavily and flicked his cigarette over the side. Straightening up, he
turned towards us. Our eyes met in a moment of fireworks, bells and chimes. I
had never seen a more handsome man in my entire existence. We smiled at each other.
For that moment the world seemed to melt away. I could almost feel my heart
start to beat again.
“I
guess they like each other.” Lily commented with a giggle.
“Seems
like it,” Misty chimed in.
The
snarky commentary snapped us out of our trance. He cleared his throat and I
looked down at my dress, trying to smooth a nonexistent wrinkle. I had never
experienced an attraction to any one like that. It was definitely something
different, but I liked it.
“Silas,
I’d like you to meet Lily Buchannan and Harper Kemp. Both of you, this is Silas
Foster.”
