Beta

Vampires and Chocolate #8 / 8
by Karinn Martel
Beta (Vampires and Chocolate #8) by Karinn Martel
Unrated

Charlie has been brought to the future but at what cost? Things are never as they seem, nor are they as easy. Being forced to fall in love with a man she does not care for in order to save his family is among one of the challenges Charlie has to face.

While the women of the realm continue to die, along with their children, it’s up to Charlie and her human comrades, known as the Sisterhood of the Black Coven, to create something in which to save them all. They find allies in the most obscure people and it becomes a race to the end to see if they can do what they set out to do.

Between messing with the time stone, voodoo, and finding a mystical flower, Charlie learns the hard way that heroes come in all forms, even the smallest, most fragile.

The coven’s rule: You will never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option you have.

Beta is the eighth instalment of the Vampires and Chocolate series.

Karinn Martel

Karinn Martel

Miss Martel was born in Manitoba, Canada, to a mixed heritage of Ojibway and French parents. Her parents moved the family to Ontario when she was eleven and she remains there to this day. In the small town of Cambridge, Ontario, she decided to sit down and write a book when the ideas in her head would not leave her alone. Forty-four hours later, she had the first draft of the first book of her Vampires and Chocolate series. In less than three years, she has added to the series with another six full length novels, with still more to come.

The genre of vampires has never been told like this before. Miss Martel has shown us what a real vampire is. They are not made of marble nor do they glow or sparkle. They are just like the rest of us, which makes them that much more interesting and deadly. They could be in your neighbourhood and you would never know.

Her take on the world and where it will go leaves us to question our own mortality, and that of the planet. She touches on everyday life questions and how the average person would deal with it, relating to most who have read the series so far. Hate it or love it, the reader will find something about themselves in the books. They can relate to Charlie, the lead character, because unlike most other vampire themed books, she is an average woman and average women can see themselves in her place.

Her series is world-wide in popularity, especially in the UK, and she has sold thousands of her books so far. There are NO paperback versions available of book 1 anymore; they are ONLY on Amazon at the moment. Any comments made about any of her books regarding spelling errors have been fixed for each book. She takes everything reviewers say and tries to fix annoying things she may have overlooked. She wants to make sure that all of her fans have a great read!

She started writing in 2010 from a need by women to have a more realistic vampire series. She has released 7 books so far with another 6 to be released in the future because of a demand for her series to continue.

Miss Martel has started venturing into the YA market and is beginning to release books for her young fans too. "I wanted to get some books out in the market that combine being a preteen and growing up in a world surrounded by ghosts and other things that go bump in the night. I love putting the super natural spin on everyday lives to see how they react."
