After years of recluse, Ivy Stone, an angry heavy metal musician living in the dangerous city of Springfield, MA gets more than she bargains for in her search for band mates when she gets a gig at a violent night club and catches the attention of Hostage, a masochistic metal band with a blood lust and a front man who’s mastery is in death and vengeance. Just when Ivy thinks her life has finally taken a turn for the better, she discovers the horrific secrets of her new band mates, but her discoveries didn’t stop there. In finding the truth about her mysterious new crew, she also discovers a shocking and unknown truth about herself. As the dust settles, mysteries of times long past catch up to the present with demons, hell hounds, vampires and a powerful amount of witchcraft chasing close behind. When Alexander, a demon with his feet set firmly in both worlds of heaven and hell, targets Ivy yet again as the key to ruling the world, the only way to save the universe from utter destruction and stop the raunchy murders of Ivy’s soul is for Ivy to fall in love with the right monster and solve the longest waiting riddle of all times, how to kill what’s already dead. In a dangerous adventure filled with rip tides of heavy metal, mind numbing sex, heart pounding terror and an eternity of red hot madness, Ivy and her eternal love, Kane, bull doze their way into your adrenal gland with unexpected twists around every corner in my new novel, ‘Hostage’

About the Author

Kara Stefanowich grew up the old country way. She walked 25 miles to school in 10 feet of fresh snow bare foot. Well, not really. But close. She grew up on a mountain in Northern Maine on a farm in a cabin with no electricity and no running water. Growing up the old fashioned way, with no TV and lots of work to do on the farms, her imagination ran wild. Once she moved to the city she soon missed her roots and remembered the stories she'd thought of over the many years of her old country life. So she put paper to the type writer and began her first novel. After writing several novels and hiding them under her mattress she soon discovered Twitter! The magical and magnetic twitter fascinated her and gave her the tools and freedom to join minds with other great writers/thinkers. From there came the first of her published works, 'Birds of a Feather'. May the pen (or the keyboard) know no bounds!

I didn’t want to put this book down until I finished it. I didn’t want to finish it because I knew I’d want more. I was right. If you want to avoid spoilers, just stop reading now and buy this book.
Kara uses her wonderful talent to make you realize that things aren’t always what they appear to be. Kane’s not the first good-guy vampire we’ve met (Hello, Angel!), but his mission is pure, and his heart is true. His love? Everlasting. Kane fights through centuries to find his love, his soul. He’s closer now than he’s ever been. Can he save her in time? Will she come to see that his love for her is deeper than she can imagine? Will Alex again tear them apart? Or does love really conquer all?
Kara’s original style and love of writing takes you into another world just beneath our own. She shows you the darker side and balances it with the best the human spirit has to offer.
If you love paranormal, mystery, or love, you will truly enjoy this book.

Great Read!!

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2014

This was a great read. I’d definitely recommend this story to anyone who’s into dark fantasy. As romantic as this book was said to be, I found it to be more of an adventure. I never knew what was around the corner. There were so many different character types (witches, demons, ghosts, kings, vampires, psychics…) that I couldn’t wait to see what else the author in store. The sex scenes were hot and the action sequences kicked butt! I have to add that I was actually a little more interested in the story behind the story in this book. I wanted to hear more about that. I’d love to know how the author came up with this story and if it will ever hit the silver screen.
