The moment
seventeen-year-old Samantha Thompson crawls out of her grave, her second chance
at life begins. She died of cancer with her long-time boyfriend, Ethan, by her
side—a completely unfair shot at life. But Ethan found a way to bring her back,
like he promised he would. Only Sam came back wrong.
She's now a monster that drains others' lives to survive. And after she
kills, she’s tortured by visions—glimpses into her victims would-have-been
futures had she not killed them. Barely able to live with herself and trying to
make things right, Sam ends up a pawn in a vicious game of payback within the
local coven of witches.
But
when the game reveals what Ethan had to do to save Sam, she must make a choice
that will change all their lives forever.

The Darkness Within:
After dying of
cancer at seventeen and being brought back to life by an evil witch who turned
her into a monster, Samantha Thompson thinks she's finally gotten past all the
tragedy in her life. Now she's part of a coven of good witches who are helping
her and her boyfriend, Ethan Anderson, learn to use the powers they received
from other witches. Aside from the fact that Sam and Ethan are still in hiding
from their old lives--the ones they had before Sam was brought back to
life--things couldn't be better. Sam and Ethan are inseparable. What could go
wrong?
Magic.
Ethan's magic
came from a witch who'd turned as evil as possible, and though his coven
thought he'd be fine, the more he uses his magic, the stranger he starts
acting. The magic inside him is changing who he is. One minute he's Sam's
sweet, perfect Ethan and the next, he's a complete stranger. Even with all her
witchy power, Sam is helpless against the magic corrupting Ethan. Can Sam find
out what's wrong with him before she loses him to dark magic forever?
