Up until now, Aidan has managed to keep his family's, the Illuminati, identity a secret, until he reveals a grave secret to Stephanie that shatters her life and since, nothing is what it seems.

As fate weaves its wicked web, Stephanie unveils more dark and treacherous secrets that leave her fearing for her very own life. And the worse discovery of all --- Aidan may be conspiring with the Illuminati to murder her.

Book Description

Could Maura's life get any worse? ...turns out it most certainly can.
Isolated and sheltered by her lonely mother, Maura's never been able to make friends.
She seems to drive her classmates away—except for the odd times they pay enough attention to torture her—but she doesn’t understand why.
Maura considers herself to be a freak of nature, with her unusually pale skin and an aversion to the sun that renders her violently nauseous.
Her belief is only worsened by the fact that almost everyone around her keeps their distance.

Even her own father deserted her before she was born, leaving Maura alone with her emotionally distant mother, Caelyn.
Even though Maura is desperate for answers about her unknown parent, Caelyn remains heartbroken and her daughter can’t bring herself to reopen her mother’s wounds.
Or is there a more sinister reason Caelyn refuses to utter a word about her long-lost love?

When a cruel prank nearly claims Maura’s life, one of her classmates, Ron, rushes to her rescue.
Darkly handsome & mysteriously accepting, Ron doesn’t seem to want to stay away, but Maura is reluctant to get too close, since her mother has announced she’s moving the two of them to Vancouver…nearly 3,000 miles away from their hometown of Indiana, Pennsylvania.

If life wasn’t already challenging enough, Maura begins to experience bizarre, physical changes her mother seems hell bent on ignoring, compelling Maura to fear for her own life.
Vicious nightmares, blood cravings, failing health and the heart-shattering loss of Ron—as well as the discovery of a tangled web of her own mother's lies—become obstacles in Maura's desperate quest for the unfathomable truth she was never prepared to uncover.

˃˃˃ Sure to become one of the Books to Read of the year, Rising Tide: Dark Innocence isn’t the usual YA vampire tale.
Full of Mystery and Suspense, this Vampire Mystery Thriller packs just enough Romance & Humor, while delivering plenty of Dark Fantasy served with a side of the Supernatural.
Maura, in the midst of her vampire awakenings, is unarguably a vampire in denial.
It is a novel that is certain to become one of the classic paranormal books of its time--the series is not only for Teens & Young Adult readers, but has been well-received by many adult readers, as well.
Maura doesn't live in Castle Dracula in Transylvania, but she must still discover the bloodlines constructing the creature she is destined to become, while overcoming social issues, such as bullying, that rock her world.
She is a strong Urban Fantasy female protagonist readers love.

Souvenirs of my Travels

These two are among my many favourite souvenirs.
The one on the right is a miniature Vatican which I bought in Rome. It plays the tune, 'Arriver dechi Roma' and lights up.
It is beautiful when lighted up.
The one on the left is a replica of the famous Eiffel Tower, which I bought in Paris.
It is all decorated with colourful rhinestones.

These are small souvenirs I collected at many of my favourite tourist destinations.
I even have a piece of the Berlin Wall in a glass case.

These are souvenir magnets on my fridge covering many countries that I have visited.

LATEST REVIEW


A great and inspirational book!
By Katie on March 18, 2017
5.0 out of 5.0 stars
Format: Kindle Edition|Verified Purchase
Brenda Mohammed is an award-winning author who writes in many genres. While many people travel, few of us are capable of sharing our experience in a meaningful and relevant way with strangers. This author does a superb job.

Her book is very personal and one can feel as if a friend were relating her travel impressions and giving us her tips. Paradoxically, this personal and openly subjective touch makes the tips about restaurants and other commercial places for tourists sound less biased than a professional guide book where it is often difficult to distinguish an honest review from a paid ad. In this book, we can read real first hand accounts that are very precious to any explorers and travelers.

This book can inspire us when we plan our next vacation, it can also make us reflect on our own experience and realize what we might have missed when we visited a particular place, but it can also take us to places we do not have time or money to visit any time soon. It’s also interesting to read a short entry about places that we consider our home since we cannot always see what makes them special unless we step away and look at them from a distance through a tourist’s eyes.

I found it exciting to read about places I visited and lived since the author has a keen eye and often notices thinks I don’t. But her chapter on Trinidad and Tobago, a place I have not been to, was probably the most interesting one to me. The author was born there and seems to know it very well. The ghost stories about the village of Lopinot make me want to visit and explore the place.

This collection consists of five stories narrated in the first person by Squeaky Doo, a teddy bear owned by a little girl named Marge. Marge lives with her younger brother and parents in Miami. However, except for the first story which takes place on a beach in Miami, all the other stories are set in different locations. The tales describe adventures in Los Angeles, Orlando, on a cruise trip, and in the author's native island, Trinidad. Squeaky Doo accompanies Marge as her family, including her grandparents, vacation in these different places. He gets lost in each story and, fortunately for him, is always rescued and reunited with Marge.

Squeaky Doo is an observant bear who never misses any detail of the family's activities. He gives vivid descriptions of a warm and loving family of which he is proud to be a part. Children will surely fall in love with this likable teddy bear and will want to read about all of his adventures.

REVIEW

These are indeed stories that people will love to read -some fiction and some truthful.
The Headmaster's Daughter dates back to the 1950's.
This story gives an excellent idea of how life was lived during those days.
The strict Headmaster was feared by everyone but love conquered all in the end.
Children obeyed their parents no matter what.
Education was the goal of many and Paul in spite of having to leave his love behind went ahead to further his studies.
That caused great admiration for him and when he returned to ask for Marie's hand in marriage, her father readily agreed.
Marie's dream had come true.
True love and further education were brought to her door.
This is indeed a remarkable story and should be read by everyone who believes love conquers all and there is always a whispering hope in the air.

Travel Dreams of Yesterday is an exciting, true story of two girls travelling abroad for the first time. This story gives details of all the fun and adventures they had and the many challenges faced and how they were overcome. Their beautiful memories stay with them always.
The author has even included a poem about this first travel abroad.

The Dirtiest of all Evils; tells the story of murder, a change from her other stories.
It is nail-biting and grips you with fear and anxiety.
Belief in God changed the entire plot.
Read why Mark was set free.

Age Difference was a beautiful love story which was well told.

The book is available in Kindle and Paperback at Amazon Universal Link.
