17-year old Irina
Connors is in her last year of high school. What had begun as seemingly a
dream come true only three years previously has morphed into a daily grind of
verbal abuse and bullying. She was offered a place in a special program wherein
she is bussed from her poor neighborhood to a school in a wealthy part of
Seattle and has qualified for a college scholarship if she can maintain a 3.7
GPA. As she struggles to maintain a perfect grade average she has
increasingly become the favored target of malicious and cruel attacks by a
clique of wealthy girls and their boyfriends.
One day
the attacks go too far as her only friend is victimized too and Irina
retaliates, setting in motion a chain of events that seem to shatter her life
and her dreams. She crosses a threshold that takes her into a world of
unbelievable danger, yet one of great promise as well if she proves
worthy.
Join
Irina as she sets out on the journey of a lifetime and beyond, discovering
things unimaginable even while struggling with her own role in her new
life. ‘Forever Young Irina ‘will captivate you and draw you in to
experience the world of Vampires as you have never before seen it portrayed.

worker turned author. My first book ever was titled 'Secrets of the Bible' It
was a paperback book that I published in 1998 and dealt with words that appear
in the Hebrew text of the Bible at specific intervals, sometimes called 'Bible
codes'. I returned to writing in 2012 as a novelist after having thoughts
about two separate characters and their adventures since around year
2010. I thought of them as figures in a screenplay and not as literary
characters until springtime of 2012 when I decided to write about one of them.
This led to the 'Forever Young' vampire series following the adventures of the same character and his 'family'. To date I have written three of them and I anticipate writing more in the near future. They are available at most online book stores and in print.
