"Souled Out is a page-turner and a quick, entertaining read."
-Cellardoorians
"Ell Clyne's life is thrown away and we see her defending her position as the Cypher, in a fire, trying to kill someone, running from the evilest creatures, rescuing her friend and trying to stay in one piece... She feels real and loveable."
-Reading... Dreaming
Ell Clyne is just a normal girl living in a small town. Except, she can read your future through your soul, she works for the daylight-impaired, and she told one hell of a lie to get the job... So 'normal' was basically thrown out the window a long time ago.
When Ell's lie is discovered, the vampires want answers, even if it kills her. In a world of enemies -and one particularly vexing coworker- Ell must discover who sold her out and why before she permanently loses her soul, her life, and her family forever.
Because liars pay in blood.
EXCERPT
I never expected eternity to feel so damn long. The real shame is that it’s barely started. I took the vow four years ago to become the Cypher, but hadn’t figured on life losing its patina until I was at least a hundred, maybe two hundred years old. And the prospect of eternity, especially in this town, will drive a girl unequivocally mental.
It seemed like a sweet deal at first. Live forever without becoming the undead. Possess a bank account that can support a small island. Days and holidays subject to my whim. And all I do in return is a little soul searching. But it turns out that reading souls, which saved someone very dear to me, has left me with one dangerous mother of a secret. Oh, and a hole next to my heart where my own soul used to be.
I learned quickly what my world was... And more importantly, what it could never be.
My life isn't normal because I am no longer normal. I'm twenty and already put out with the world. And now the monsters are growing wise to my conspiracy.
Am I ready for what I've started?
