New physiology brought with it change to old patterns. Humans infected with White Horse mutated in unpredictable ways. Ninety percent died. Of the remaining ten percent, maybe half were immune. The other five mutated in a way that was survivable.

Synopsis

Thirty-year-old Zoe leads an ordinary life until the end of the world arrives. She is cleaning cages and floors at Pope Pharmaceuticals when the President of the United States announces that human beings are no longer a viable species. When Zoe realizes that everyone she loves is disappearing, she starts running. Scared and alone in a shockingly changed world, she embarks on a remarkable journey of survival and redemption. Along the way, Zoe comes to see that humans are not defined by their genetic code, but rather by their actions and choices. White Horse offers hope for a broken world, where love can lead to the most unexpected places.

My Tease from %5 into the story

His eyes widened, and his voice dropped to a hoarse whisper. “At first they only came every couple of days, but now they’re here all the time. They’re always here.”

“Who?”

“Baitbags, Sarge. I can smell ’em.”

Synopsis

Sixty years ago Abe Griffin saved the world and gained eternal youth.

Or so he thought.

Now, a man that Abe thought long dead is killing the surviving members of Abe’s old squad in order to reclaim the relics that they have kept hidden for decades.

The relics form an ancient beacon that must never be used, in a ritual that must never be completed.  But the end of the world requires more than just activating the beacon.

It requires Abe.

With help from the granddaughter of his oldest friend, Abe must learn the truth about his immortal body, while at the same time trying to stop a horrifying series of supernatural opponents from sweeping away everything that he cares about.

My Tease from page 74

Am I dreaming?

The world seems wrong and mixed up and different from the one that I know to be real, so it could be a dream. Yet…I don’t dream this vividly. I inhale; the bite of salty air fills my lungs.

That felt real. I look down — my hands are strange, the wrong color, like I’ve been picking blueberries and haven’t washed them. I stare at them for a moment, turn them over, and inspect my palms. Everything feels real, but something isn’t right….

And then I realize I’m naked. Naked, kneeling in the ocean.

Synopsis

Celia Reynolds is the youngest in a set of triplets and the one with the least valuable power. Anne can see the future, and Jane can see the present, but all Celia can see is the past. And the past seems so insignificant — until Celia meets Lo.

Lo doesn’t know who she is. Or who she was. Once a human, she is now almost entirely a creature of the sea — a nymph, an ocean girl, a mermaid — all terms too pretty for the soulless monster she knows she’s becoming. Lo clings to shreds of her former self, fighting to remember her past, even as she’s tempted to embrace her dark immortality.

When a handsome boy named Jude falls off a pier and into the ocean, Celia and Lo work together to rescue him from the waves. The two form a friendship, but soon they find themselves competing for Jude’s affection. Lo wants more than that, though. According to the ocean girls, there’s only one way for Lo to earn back her humanity. She must persuade a mortal to love her . . . and steal his soul.

The only features he recognized were the brownish-gold eyes staring back at him in shock. And the only word that came to mind was monster.

My Teaser

I slammed the truck door behind me. “What a horrible day.”

“I thought every day you got to commit arson was a good day.” Alex stared straight ahead, eyes focused on traffic, but his mouth twitched.

“Go ahead and laugh. You can’t help yourself.”

The twitch turned into that crease at the corner of his mouth, just on the left side, that was about the sexiest thing going.

From page 108

When you read what led up to this conversation you’ll see why I think of graffiti gone wrong!

From page 211.

“Will you walk to me? Will you move close so that the ground wobbles, the walls between us crumble, and your thoughts rip open until we’re melding our fears and hopes as easily as we share air?”

He parted his lips and calmness drifted out with a sigh, “Just…just show me how.”

They shoved until the body folded and disappeared into the darkness of the Chevy’s back end, which was normally reserved for groceries and Miranda’s snotty poodle.

“Let’s go buddy.”

“Where?” Tim asked, his legs mortared in place.

“My place,” Jay answered, opening the opposite door. “We’ll need some shovels.”

MY Tease

This collection is an excursion rooted in horror.

It will take you, literate horror fan, along more than a few unexpected paths. Hope you enjoy the journey. Lord knows you’re in for an unconventional ride.

Taken from the authors introduction.

I couldn’t choose just one story to tease you with so I’ll let the authors note tease you.

I have read several of these stories already and the author is right. You’re in for a ride!
