Terraway

Just when correctional nurse October Grace has a handle on her stressful job and taking care of her mentally ill mother, a shape-shifting warrior and a half-vampire plunge her into a foreign land that's on the brink of starvation. Now, with a ticking clock and a target on her back, October takes up the mantle of becoming one of the rare Omens who can bring hope to a dying world.

Mason and Von remain by her side to shield the national treasure while she sacrifices herself to reap the souls that will feed the nations of Terraway. As the death toll rises daily, October finds herself tangled up in a cutthroat world where Filipino fairytale creatures run wild, and every day is a new bloody battle.

Taste is book one in an eight-part fantasy romance series, with characters based in Filipino folklore.
