Night Bloom (night Bloom Saga) (volume 1) [Paperback]

All Sophie Bloom has ever known is a quiet, sheltered life with her abysmally normal parents, who just left for an anniversary trip.

She has no idea that one morning will change everything about her ordinary life. Because by the end of her usual run, she's seen something she can't explain--something that can't be human--and been saved by an unnamed hero who quickly disappears.

As her mother falls victim to a sudden illness, Sophie is plunged into a dark and violent world of creatures straight out of mythology. It seems she didn't know everything about her mother after all.

Delving her mother's past, even knowing it is the key to everything, including her own future, isn't easy. Especially when it becomes abundantly clear that something or someone from that past is now after her. As if that wasn't enough, her dormant love life suddenly blares to life, making a spectacular, complicated mess of things.

Yet the deeper Sophie goes down the rabbit hole, the more she learns about the truth at the heart of who she is. As long-held secrets come to light, she'll be forced to make impossible choices and only one thing remains perfectly clear: Sophie's life will never be ordinary again.

Night Bloom is a story about how a teenage girl must learn to grapple with her family's past, her own identity, and just how complicated love can be, if she wants to save those who matter most to her. This fresh and surprising story blends action, romance, and coming-of-age while merging the legends of two very different traditions-Norse Mythology and the world of vampires.
