Sneak Peek: Marta Szemik’s “Two Halves”

Today we have a sneak peek from Marta Szemik’s book Two Halves:

Two Halves CoverTwenty-one-year-old Sarah is a child of a human mother and a vampire father and has suppressed her dark side with serums. The only memory of her mother is when Sarah killed her, soon after birth. Of her father, nothing—just a hatred for his vampire traits that made her kill her own mother.

When a disturbing nightmare foretelling her bleak future stirs the superhuman traits, underworld creatures are beaconed. On the run with William, a man she knows from her dreams, Sarah tries to learn what’s been hidden from her, for a good reason. Had she known her destiny, she may have continued with the serums that kept her hidden.

Two Halves is available on Amazon.com and Smashwords. Continue reading “Sneak Peek: Marta Szemik’s “Two Halves””
