Synopsis:
This limited deluxe edition is printed with gorgeous stenciled edges and a stunning foil-stamped case!
JUST ONE TASTE CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING.
All seventeen-year-old Dusty wants is to escape into books and the Adirondack wilderness that surrounds her small town. But in the dead of night, strange things have been happening in Black River.
Animals are being ravaged by something unnatural. And Dusty wakes up one day with dirt on her feet, changed and starving. When new kid Will arrives, Dusty feels an attraction unlike anything she’s felt before. She wants him . . . or she wants his blood. As Dusty realizes she’s transforming into something she can’t control, she reluctantly turns to the only person she somehow knows will understand: the annoyingly attractive Eli Blake.
Together, Dusty and Eli must uncover the mystery of their town and their new, insatiable desires. Have they become vampires or some other kind of monster?
Whatever they are, they’re not the only ones.
An irresistible blend of suspense and romance, this paranormal small town mystery is perfect for fans of Stephanie Meyers and Tigest Girma.


Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Ruby studied Art History before beginning her career in magazines and fashion.
After a winding career path that focused on creative direction in digital media, content creation and branding, plus a move to New York – all the while navigating undiagnosed endometriosis – Ruby finally came back to her first love: writing.
Ruby loves to explore the natural world through storytelling, with a focus on romance, the paranormal, fantasy and sci-fi. Her debut novel, Black River, was originally published in Australia in 2025, and book II of the duology, White Mountain, will be released in 2026.
Ruby lives in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales with her husband, dog, and their two sons.
