Above the Ashes

Young witch Sybil Cotterill barely escapes persecution in seventeenth-century England, only to experience tragedy as she is caught up in the Salem trials and sent to sleep for three centuries. When modern-day vampire Marcelo accidentally awakens Sybil, the two begin to connect as she struggles with the contemporary world and her need to exact revenge. Can Marcelo save her from herself, or will he be the one who needs saving? ABOVE THE ASHES is a well-written and enjoyable first installment in Alexander Fernandez’s paranormal romance trilogy. Set across differing timelines, his neatly crafted supernatural narrative and convincing characters absorb, intrigue, and promise much for the next two books.
