In My Memories

"I never felt as if I ever belonged anywhere and that never had more meaning than now." After surviving a tragic accident that took her father's life, Lillian Roberts moves to Sunriver with her mother and brothers. Spending most of her childhood summers there, returning to her grandmother's house didn't seem all that bad for at least she would have her best friend, Emma. But her return would bring a mystery that had haunted her dreams her entire life full circle. What Lillie didn't expect was to fall helplessly in love that summer. Not long after returning Lillie comes face to face with The Mellins. A mysterious but alluring family that spent their summers in Sunriver and that summer was no different. Not only had Jake Mellins caught Lillie's eye that night but Lillie had made Jake feel as if he had seen a ghost from the past, alive and breathing. Being warned by everyone about them, Lillie tries to get him out her mind. Nicholas and Kai, Jake's best friends, warn Jake that she is not like them for she was human. Soon Jake and Lillie can no longer stay away from each other. They are drawn to one another by forces written in the stars. The discovery of her great, great grandmother's diary, and the painting that Lillie so much resembles, the mystery deepens until she finally confronts Jake. Without yet revealing the past in fear that Lillie will reject his love, Jake finally admits that he is what she suspects, the living dead, a Vampire. With love comes heartache and loss, as Lillie is subjected to a barrage of advances and threats by Ciarra, Jakes evil and vindictive maker. Ciarra wants nothing more than to have Jake as her companion and will not allow anyone to stand in her way. Lillie soon leaves Sunriver and Jake behind as she heads to college in California not knowing that the secret Lillie carried with her would forever change everyone's life.
