Shadows of a Woman (Love within the Shadows)

By Edwin Rivera

Mikale, an elite ex-assassin hiding in plain sight as a nightclub bodyguard, encounters a woman whose beauty shatters his world. Her name is Judith, an 'outer rim galaxy' vampire whose ship crashed on Earth over a century ago. Their meeting at Club Zion sparks a forbidden romance that transcends species and space-time. As they plan to flee from New York City, Judith reveals her extraterrestrial origin and how for decades she has been hunted by an Earth's government agency, led by the ruthless Jason Streeve. Their love produces twins, Savien and Sarena, half-human hybrids who possess terrifying power and grow at an unnatural rate. Mikale must embrace his dormant, violent past to protect his new family from not just his world but Judith's world as well. From the shadowy alleys of Greenwich Village to the mysterious world where Judith is from, the family lives a life of constant motion and survival. The stakes are existential; if captured by either world, the twins will be dissected as weapons and Judith will be lost to a laboratory forever. Mikale's devotion is tested as he navigates two worlds of supernatural politics and human and extraterrestrial cruelty. Finally, they must find a way to escape Earth's and Judith's world's grasp or die fighting for their right to exist as a family.
