Even worse, some of that darkness may already exist within her, threatening her chance to make Hallows Haven her permanent home. Have Gwen's loved ones continued to keep dangerous secrets? Can Gwen resist the call of darkness?

Since childhood, Nicole has been guilty of daydreaming a little too much. One of her favorite pastimes is staring into space, dreaming up stories, characters, lives, and dimensions when she really should be accomplishing other things. She parlayed her love of creating first into a career as a freelance writer and then into fiction writing. Her favorite genres are paranormal fiction and romance, followed closely by horror. A long time Pennsylvanian, Nicole spends her days writing, soaking up books, teaching her five children how to be weird (in a good way), dancing for the endorphins and gardening.
