The Becoming
by Jeanne C. Stein

Thirty-year-old Anna Strong grew up reading about vampires and seeing movies about them, but she never thought much about vampires—until she became one. In one terrible night she learns just how much stranger the reality is from fiction—and how much more dangerous. She finds a mentor, the doctor who treats her in the hospital, an old soul who offers solace, instruction and love. But then her home is burned to the ground, and her business partner and best friend, David, is abducted by the vampire who made her. Anna finds herself alone on a quest not only to save David but herself as she seeks to understand the meaning of this strange new life as a member of the Undead.



Jeanne C. Stein's Bio

I am the author of the Anna Strong Vampire Chronicles.

I live in Denver but San Diego will always be home. It’s where I grew up. It’s where I set my books. I can show you Anna’s cottage on Isthmus Ct. in Mission Beach, take you to lunch at the Mission Cafe and grab a beer at The Green Flash.

I hope you enjoy Anna’s adventures. I have a great deal of fun writing them. Anna is a strong female protagonist who is battling the dual sides of her nature—she struggles to retain her humanity while fighting the beast within. She has a strong moral compass and values loyalty to her friends and family above all us.

If you haven’t yet discovered Anna, please give her a try. If you are a returning fan, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the support. You can reach me on my website. I answer every email. I also share a blog with fellow vamp writer Mario Acevedo: http://www.biting-edge.blogspot.com We have a good time with it and I think you will too. Mario and I have the dubious distinction of being a part of a rather eclectic group of Urban Fantasy writers called The League of Reluctant Adults: http://reluctantadults.blogspot.com If you want a laugh, drop in anytime.
