Vampire Romance. He was a creature of the night, destined to live only in darkness and never know the love of a mortal woman. She was goodness and light, everything he'd ever wanted in a woman. But she could never be his. They met by chance, but evil keeps them apart. Together, Galan and Stephanie must defeat the demon, Moloch. Only then can Galan regain mortality. Only then will they find happiness together.
This book is also available at most Waldenbooks bookstores! **Sizzling Seller** at New Concepts Publishing Here's what they're saying! "One More Tomorrow by S.A. Martin has not only spoken of true love in reincarnation but has brought a vampire to feel love again in his soulless body. Filled with betrayal, deep love, and the power to be mortal again is what enriches this story to be a great paranormal romance. Though his love has passed, he still senses Linnette in Stevie's body, yearning to be with her. Galan tries everything to deny himself in seeing Stevie, but like everything that deals with love, it becomes broken. Knowing that he can see Stevie whenever he can, he goes to her. Moloch, a man who can be evil and menacing knows that Stevie is the key to groom Galan into a rule of the undead. A woman who senses a sense of goodness in Galan is the only one who can redeem his life and give him the love he deserves. S.A. Martin's imagination brightens in this love romance. The characters are in tuned with each other and the story line never falters from being a great paranormal. With her sense of writing and imagination you will never fail of enjoying one of her books and feel satisfied that you enjoyed a vampire romance." --Review by Melinda, Loves Romances. To read the entire text of the review, please visit http://loveromances.com/onemoretomorrow_melinda.html "One of my favorite themes is the enduring power of love beyond time. As such, I eagerly took up One More Tomorrow and instantly fell in love. It is a deeply satisfying story that resonates on many levels, as well as a surprisingly sweet romance set within the oftentimes-brutal world of vampirism. While Stevie was a fun character, I connected most deeply with Galan. I felt his tormented hopes and fractured sacrifices as though they were my own. Each time Galan was forced to reject his love, his heart, his dreams, I would wail my distress. And yet, each time dear, dedicated, and eternally loving Galan would return to Stevie, drawn to the love of his life like the moth to the flame. Ah, if only I could find someone who would love me as deeply as Galan loved Stevie/Lynette. Well, perhaps one day. A girl can dream, can't she?" -- Brenda Thatcher, Escape to Romance. To read the entire text of the review, please visit http://www.escapetoromance.com/reviews/martin-one.html S.A. Martin’s vampire romance, ONE MORE TOMORROW is an emotional and insightful look into the life of a vampire. The grief and the loneliness that Galan expresses make this a poignant tale of a man’s heart and the lengths he would go to for his true love. Stevie and Galan together form a powerful couple trying to develop a relationship and who are deeply in sync with each other. For them to be together though, they must fight evil, examine their souls and sacrifice everything that they hold dear. A tale that is full of evil, deception, powerful love and an author’s imagination and vision, make ONE MORE TOMORROW a tale not to be missed. S.A. Martin is a new addition to my long list of paranormal authors that are a MUST buy." |
