The Fire of Dawn
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Release Date: 2012
Synopsis:
It’s the last day of the summer holiday in The Hague when Leah
Koopmans’s carefree life as a teen is brutally flipped upside down. Her
pale skin turns a dazzling gold, her senses heighten, and her muscles
possess an uncanny strength. But with these exhilarating new powers
comes a thirst that can only be quenched by one thing: human blood.
While her
body craves for fresh victims and her heart drowns in guilt, she meets
inhumanly handsome Max Machiavelli, who claims that Leah is immortal
like him. Infatuation ignites into blistering passion when she joins his
coven in Amsterdam. But as the mysteries shrouding her sudden change to
immortality unravel, Leah quickly learns that her aversion to taking
life isn’t the only thing that sets her apart from this group of
herculean strangers.
From the
picturesque canals of Amsterdam to Corsica’s limestone cliffs and the
untamed Siberian wilderness; from first loves to fierce battles, The
Fire of Dawn is an extraordinary tale packed with romance, betrayal, and
bloodsucking suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seat till
the very last page.

The Fire of Dawn-a scintillating tale about strength, self-discovery, and a girl who dared to follow her heart.
Born and raised in The Netherlands, V.V. Aku (Veerle Ackerstaff) soon discovered that the world was a place worth exploring. After graduating high school, she set out to travel the globe until she finally touched down in China. On the border of Tibet she met Anzi Aku, a wild Black-Yi man who lives at the foot of the Himalayas. She has joined his clan and tries to find her place among the tribe and its shamans. When she’s not researching the clan’s mythology on vampires, she shamelessly gives in to the compulsion to write about the countless characters that haunt her dreams.

The Fire of Dawn is her debut novel.
