I'm very excited to have Krista here with us today. I'm really looking forward to reading her book. I'm sure you're going to be intrigued too.
The Grey
Curse by Krista Kelley
Available
August 29
Blurb:
For nearly
two centuries, every female descendant of the witch Rebecca Grey has died
mysteriously at the age of twenty-one. The last of her line, Selena Grey has
done everything to live a normal life. That is until she learns of the curse
placed on her family. Selena's 21st birthday is coming soon and she has to find
a way to break the curse and live.
Decan Colt
wants more than anything to be normal again. For 160 years, he has walked the
earth a blood-thirsty monster, a Vampire. He was traded and trained at a young
age to be his mother's revenge on Rebecca Grey and her family. But when he sees
his latest target, he falters. Something about Selena Grey reminds him of the
humanity he thought he had lost so long ago.
When Decan
refuses to kill Selena, his maker decides to take matters into his own hands.
Together, they must break the curse or face the wrath of an older vampire bent
on vengeance. Will they be the latest victims of the Grey Curse?
Excerpt:
"This one's the last of her line. There
are no others, Deke." He held up a file and tossed it to Decan.
Catching it, he thumbed through the small
stack of papers and moved back to his recliner. "Selena Michelle Grey,
born October 31st, 1991. Hair, blonde. Eyes, blue. Only child to Thomas and
Melissa Grey." Decan closed the folder and leaned back in his chair. The
last Grey. It meant his life's purpose had almost been completed. What would he
do when the time came when there were no more "missions"? There had
been a time when it had seemed impossible. He had spent his exceedingly long
life fulfilling his mother's wishes. Running a hand through his hair, he gave
it a tug before peering back up at his maker.
"After this one, I'll be free?"
Nikolai's lips turned up in a small smile.
"You'll be free. You know the drill. You have until her twenty-first
birthday to do recon. Study her habits—where she goes, who she sees. October
thirty-first, you strike."
Before Decan could blink, the elder man
disappeared. He glanced back down at the file in his hands and smirked. The
last Grey. How would he deal with this one? A fire? Or maybe a drowning? It
happened a lot with the Ohio River being so close. Whatever he did, he had to
make sure it looked like an accident. They didn't need people looking for a
murderer. It was one of their rules. Always make it appear accidental. Decan
couldn't afford to be caught. After 100 years, he had gotten good at his job.
First, with Violet Grey. Then Mary Sue and April Grey, Nancy Grey Callis and
last had been Elizabeth Grey. Five women he'd killed, all in his mother's name.
But they had deserved it, they all did. And now this one would die and fulfill
his mother's curse.
