Beautiful Stranger (The Marked Ones, #1)

Some wishes should really come with a warning label: "Warning! May cause untimely death!"
* For a limited time, you can get the next volume in the Marked Ones series, Beautiful Disaster & bonus Daemons of Karalia short story One Crazy Night - see inside for details. *
Geeky artist Patrick Connolly has been inexplicably drawn to his classmate Nualla since he first locked eyes with her three years earlier. There's just one problem-he's never actually spoken to her. However, when Nualla's abusive ex corners her in the deserted hallway of their elite San Francisco private school, will Patrick finally find the courage to speak up?
This one decision could grant him his heart's desire or bring about his untimely death. Because you see, his dream girl has secrets of her own…like the fact she isn't even human.
Beautiful Stranger is the prequel novella to the fast-paced Marked Ones series. If you like spunky heroines, hot bishounen guys & thrilling urban fantasy with a science twist, then you'll love this gripping New Adult Fantasy series.
Perfect for fans of Shadowhunters, Toradora & Dragon's Gift: The Huntress.

Kat Vancil grew up in the heart of Silicon Valley where she amused herself by telling stories to anyone around her--her family, her friends...random strangers. Eventually she actually started writing those stories down instead of just spending hours hanging out in fake Ikea living rooms and telling her friends about them. Somewhere amongst all the character-torturing and epic explosions she managed to get a BFA in Illustration from the Academy of Art University and open a graphics studio (Multi-tasking for the win!).
Kat still lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband, two very crazy studio cats, and nine overfull bookcases. And when not running amuck in the imaginary worlds within her head, Kat can usually be found frolicking in her general geekiness.
