    About this ebook

    Tom stood on the ridge.  He looked down at his changing hands.  He thought about his new assistant.  He took her picture out of his pocket and looked at it.  He raised his head and howled at the moon.  His head jerked to the side. 

    “Go away vampire!”  the beast’s eyes burned red.  Tom watched as the vampire ran off.  He smiled.  This town was full of them, and he hated them, and the witches.  He looked down at the picture again.  He couldn’t wait to sink his teeth into her.

    Will a dream come true, be Jenna’s end?

    Can she trust the man that hired her?

    What about the little old woman she sees every day?

    Find out in this fast-paced Halloween tale.  Jenna will have to fight to survive.  She will have to be careful of who she trusts.

      “What’d you do now?” he hollered. Sheriff Thorn’s words struck my heart. Without thinking, I grasped the knife to pull it from her chest. “Shit, you crazy coot, drop it,” he snarled, then grabbed me up and slammed me against the side of the cruiser.

      Legends

      JENNA STEPPED OFF THE bus.  She looked around the quaint small town.  She watched as folks turned and looked at her.  She already felt that this was the place for her.  She couldn't wait to see her new apartment and meet her new boss.  She had been emailing the man for the last month.  Her family begged her to not leave New York, but she was tired of the fast pace.  She wanted to slow down and enjoy life.  Jenna pulled the e-mail with the address out of her pocket.  She walked down the street looking at the posts.  She stopped and looked up at a sign and grinned.  Finally, she had found it.  She twisted the door knob and entered.  She looked around the shop.  A small-town newspaper.

      Can I help you?  Her eyes went to a young man behind the counter.  She blushed.  He was a looker.  Tall, dark haired.  Sky blue eyes.  He smiled at her.

      I'm Jenna; I'm looking for Tom. The man smiled taking off his apron.

      That would be me.  Nice to finally meet you. He held out his hand and shook hers. I was working on tomorrow’s issue.  Please come on back.  Jenna followed him to the backroom.  She looked at the huge printing press.  This was what newspapers should be about.  She walked around looking at the massive hand press.

      How many papers do you print?  she looked over at Tom.  Tom shook his head.

      Around seventy-five.  That’s why I need some help.  He walked over to her.  Have you ever used one before? Jenna nodded.

      I have, this is a newer model than the one I used, but the mechanics are the same. Tom smiled.

      Great, I really don't have time to train someone from scratch.  Now I bet you would like to get settled in.  Come with me and I'll show you the apartment.  Jenna followed Tom to the very back, and up a set of stairs.  When they reached the top, he pushed open a door. Tom stood
