this book is clearly "Blood & Chocolate" by Annette Curtis Klause. the author Andrea Cremer may have not read b&c before she went on this writing journey but WTH it's way to close to the storyline of annette's book and I actually tossed the book on the bed and took it back to the library the next day. people like to use crap like "twilight rip-off" well this wasn't a complete rip-off but it was pretty damn close. sorry, if you don't believe me read "blood and chocolate" then read this P.O.C. - Richard
