More DescriptionAmelia Reynolds is an eighteen year old high school student. After the untimely death of her best friend, life in the big apple turns sour. Burdened by guilt, she craves for a change. For a new slice of the world to keep her passion for life alive. With the fear of her remaining best friend Lily leaving forever. Amelia's loyal character is tested. She makes a life changing choice and takes a leap of faith. Amelia and Lily leave New York for the sights and sounds of New Orleans, the carnival capital. Amelia is thrown into a supernatural world, in an intoxicating city, of burlesque dancing, jazz music, vampires and voodoo. At the core of her fascination is Robert Strauss, an Incubus vampire, that not only yearns to experience the taste of her blood, to feel the warmth of her bare skin pressing against his. For the past eighteen years, through his gift of foresight Robert has viewed her most intimate moments. Grown with her, but watching her life unfold just isn't enough anymore. Amelia can't deny that the attraction is magnetic. Life is just too short. To only live once when you can live forever seems like a tempting alternative. With the biggest party in New Orleans, the Mardi Gras Carnival about to begin, spirits soar high and the girls decide to stay for a while. But, the Strauss family are being hunted by a vile band of bounty hunters, who are hungry for power and ready to reap their reward. The vampire council have laws that are not meant to be broken. A scorned master vampire is seeking eternal retribution. Now he's even more dangerous than before. Robert Strauss is guarding a dark and dangerous secret. Only he has the answers to the questions Amelia has been seeking. Why is Amelia being hunted? Who are the Soul Searchers? Why are the Strauss family in hiding? Who is Kane Wyllie? Is the real carnival of souls about to begin?
