Plot Summary of Shattered Mirror
"Sarah Vida is a vampire hunter. She always has been. In fact her whole family have been vampire hunters- her grandmother is one of the strongest and most feared ever. Sarah has never questioned who she is or what she does.
And then she meets Christopher.
Christopher is handsome, intelligent, artistic, sensitive- and a vampire. Weakened by going without human blood, he doesn't recognize her for what she is, and falls in love with her. And she finds herself drawn to him, too. This is, of course, absolutely forbidden by every rule she's ever known.
Can she even be friends with Christopher without betraying her family's trust- and while still fighting the evil vampire Nikolas, who is Christopher's twin?"

Emma, Resident Scholar

"This book centers around a vampire hunter and a vampire who fall in love. Their romance is very looked down upon by family members so they try to cut it off. "
Kaela, Resident Scholar

"A young witch/vampire hunter befriends two vampires, and is nearly disowned by her family for it. When Chris, the male vampire expresses feelings for the witch, rational goes down the drain and trouble starts. The young witch realizes her place in the world isn't what she'd thought."
Jennifer Tanis, Resident Scholar
