K.E. Woodruff has been obsessed with dark stories, meaningful characters, and heartfelt themes since she was a child. Only recently did she venture into the world of writing her own novels. Awake While I Die is her first published work, but will not be her last.
When she's not keeping up with her hyper dogs or her equally hyper-but-adorable sons, she's daydreaming about her next novel.
The only thing worse than living is living forever.
When seventeen-year-old Jason Harper enters the woods, he has no intention of leaving. Suicide is his endgame.
Only the bullet never finds its mark, and Jason makes it out of the woods alive. Besides dirtied clothes and a few scratches, he leaves the woods unscathed.
Except for one tiny bite mark on the side of his neck, everything seems to be normal — well, as normal as can be expected when you're dragged into small-town life with an optimistic mother and her too-perfect boyfriend — until nothing is.
If he thought life was complicated before, now it's a living nightmare. Because vampires are real, and he's one of them.
As the thirst for blood gets harder to ignore, Jason must learn to subdue the beast inside before it turns him into the monster he's always known himself to be.
That is, if the demons of his past don't kill him first.
