These aren't the vampires you know.

When the Nash'terel were hunted nearly to extinction, they fled to a distant world: Earth. Using their powers of shapeshifting, they blended in with the human population, and with their thirst for life essence, the hunted became the hunters. While the older generation remain in the shadows, associating only with other Nash'terel, their Earthborn offspring are more adventurous.

Young Bilyash is tired of hiding and ready to follow his dream into the film industry. He's abandoned the traditional ways of his people and trained as a makeup artist, but two things stand in his way: assassins from the former home world, and Angie Fiore. Angie is unlike any human Bilyash has met, overflowing with the purest life essence he's ever encountered. When assassins on the hunt for Nash'terel catch up with him, both their lives are put in danger, and Bilyash and Angie are forced to run.

Bilyash's uncle and his contacts can help them go underground, but it won't stop these killers from tracking them. The only chance Bilyash has to keep himself and Angie safe is to turn the tables. Yet what chance does an inexperienced Earthborn have against centuries-old assassins with nothing to lose?

Marks, Arlene F.

Born and raised in Toronto, Arlene F. Marks has been writing since the age of 6, and she has no plans to stop anytime soon. A veteran teacher of the craft, she has authored two literacy programs for the classroom, along with From First Word to Last: The Craft of Writing Popular Fiction. Her short stories have appeared in various online and print magazines, as well as in an anthology of reimagined fairy tales, Grimmer Tales Volume One (from ArtOrder). She is also the author of Sic Transit Terra, an ongoing series of space opera novels set at the turn of the 25th century (from Edge Publishing) and Adventures in Godhood, her first of several Brain Lag releases. Imaginary Friends, her debut story collection, came out earlier this year to great reviews, and The Earthborn is forthcoming in 2023. Arlene lives with her husband on the shore of beautiful Nottawasaga Bay, Ontario. She spends an inordinate amount of time in the worlds she has created but can be lured back to reality by dark chocolate or an interesting owl to add to her collection.
