A few weeks ago I brought you this fab cover for Emma Mead's Beneath Manhattan Skies. Today, Emma has given us a little teaser into this world. Love Emma's writing and can't wait to read this one!
Beneath
Manhattan Skies by Emma Meade
November in New York is cold but full of
possibility for college freshman Erin Harris. When her twin brother, Nick,
shows up on her doorstep for a surprise visit, Erin is delighted.
Unfortunately, Nick’s arrival coincides with the discovery of a body outside
her apartment building, a body drained of blood. Right away, Nick assumes
vampires are involved. He’s not exactly their biggest fan since Erin dated one
in high school.
Juggling nosy roommates, a first date with a gorgeous
guy from college and a brother on a Van Helsing kick is enough to keep any
nineteen year old girl busy – And then Erin’s old flame walks back into her
life.
Is Erin destined to be caught up in supernatural
shenanigans, or will she choose a different path?
(45,000 word novella)

Calm down,
a soothing inner voice advised. Could be wishful thinking and nothing more. She
wanted so desperately to see James, she was inventing vampire activity where
there likely was none. Maybe the girl had simply suffered the hickey from hell.
No. Erin’s gut told her she’d got it
right the first time.
Max
led the girl away. Lucky for him, in his cozy world, his friend was simply
drunk, and vampires didn't exist. Erin trailed them until they left the roof.
At least the girl was alright. Nothing an iron tablet wouldn't fix.
“Erin,
you okay?” Sadie peered closer. “You look like you've seen a ghost.”
Author Bio
Emma
Meade lives in rainy Ireland. She loves vampires, slayers, witches, ghosts,
aliens & shadow men (or at least the youngest of the Shadow Men), and
regular people who live extraordinary lives (think Slayerettes and you’re on
the right track). Books, DVDS & TV show boxsets take up lots of space in
her home, and she collects all the Point Horror books she can get her
hands on. Writing supernatural stories and watching marathon re-runs of Buffy are some of her favourite
ways of escaping reality.
