Bloodgifted (The Dantonville Legacy Book 1)
By Tima Maria Lacoba
Being unable to age is only the beginning.
Laura Dantonville is shocked to learn her strange genetic
mutation, is linked to a dark family secret—a centuries-old curse that turned
her Roman ancestor into a vampire. Now that she has come of age, she is the key
to breaking that curse. But she’s also the prey of rogue vampires who inhabit
the city’s frightening and violent underworld, as her blood gives them the
ability to daywalk. For her protection she’s assigned a guardian—the handsome,
sexy and dangerous Alec Munro—who wants nothing to do with her.
If not for her family, Alec Munro would never have been
transformed into a vampire. He owes them nothing, yet he also knows his own
fated role in breaking the curse, and the unthinkable consequences should he
not accept.
To the Brethren, the ending of the curse spells disaster.
Among a powerful few malice grows.
Bio for Tima Maria Lacoba
Tima Maria Lacoba is a paranormal, urban fantasy romance
writer, who loves to include a bit of history, a bit of suspense and lots of
thrills in her books. Her Dantonville Legacy Series--although set in modern-day
Sydney--spans a two-thousand year period, and the ending of an ancient curse.
Both Bloodgifted and Bloodpledge, the first two books in the
series, were in Amazon's Top 100 in Gothic Romance. Bloodgifted was also awarded 4th place in the Atlas Award,

Tima lives on the Central Coast, an hour's drive north of
Sydney in Australia in a little house surrounded by bushland, possums and
seed-dropping Rosellas on one side, and waterways on the other.
Prior to that she was a practicing archaeologist, having
worked on some amazing digs around the world. After several years in the field
she was drawn to teaching and ended up as Head of History in a local high
school. It enabled her to take her students overseas to visit various
archaeological sites in Europe and Britain. It was a way for her to combine her
love of history with travel, and share it with others. On one tour, in Italy,
she managed to indulge her other passion--gelato ice cream.
Nowadays, when not working in her garden, Tima's writing and
plotting the next series of books.
