Sallie Cochren has always loved a good story and enjoys a variety of genres. She started writing short stories and skits as a child, thinking it was a great way to spend her free time. She always wanted to write a book, but her teaching career kept her so busy that there was rarely time to write. When she retired, she finally had time to focus on her writing and fulfill her lifelong dream of writing a novel. Since then, she has published many stories and novels in a variety of genres that include fantasy, science fiction, dystopian fiction, paranormal, animal fiction and others. When she isn't writing, she enjoys watching movies, reading, going for walks in nature and listening to music. She is also an animal lover and has shared her life with both cats and dogs. Her Alien Cats series and Let the Purring Begin were inspired by pets that she had at various stages of her life.
"What a brilliant start to what looks to be an awesome new series! The Voinico's Daughter has everything you need to hook you into this cracking world of vampires, mystery and family dynamics. . . . This is definitely a box of chocolates worthy, add in comfy pajamas and you'll be transported to Romania in luxury" -Charlotte Butler, Archaeolibrarian
"If you are looking for a really good book with a supernatural thriller type feel to it, absolutely give this book a try." -Jesse Presgraves, Infinite Pages Book Reviews
"Forget almost everything you have read or seen (about vampires) as you read through The Voinico's Daughter and you will be just as immersed in this novel as I was. As the first book in what will be a series the scene, story, and major cast of characters have been expertly set with a story that is fresh and imaginative." -Jennifer Tooker, Jennly Reads
"This was a fun and fast paced twist on the vampire legend." -Julie Eman, Julie's Bookshelf Adventures
Watch out, vampires! There's a new hunter in town!
Nicoleta has never taken a life before, but she will have to make her first kill soon. Typical of girls her age, she spends a lot of time thinking about boys and college. But when she takes a trip to Romania with several of her former classmates to celebrate graduating from high school, Nicoleta is going to discover who she really is. When Nicoleta learns that she is adopted and that her biological parents live in Romania, it's just the tip of the iceberg. Finding out that her birthright is hunting and killing vampires, Nicoleta has to decide whether to remain in Romania and fulfill her destiny or go back home to America and try to forget about the nightmare of a world that she has been thrown into.
Adding to Nicoleta's problems, one of the most powerful vampires has been waiting for her arrival. Varujan is anxious to meet Nicoleta since her parents are voinicos (people who have survived being bitten by a vampire.) By birth, a voinico's child becomes a vânător (someone who hunts vampires.) Varujan knows that the voinico's daughter can't outrun her destiny and has anticipated that she would eventually come to Romania. He has been looking forward to killing her. With his vampire companion, Antanasia, Varujan seems unstoppable.
Is Nicoleta ready to face Varujan and Antanasia? The other vânătors have been training to kill vampires since they were children. Will Nicoleta be able to catch up on her missed training and be ready for the battle that is inevitably coming? Can she keep herself and her friends safe, or will they become the vampires' victims before their trip is over? Whatever happens, one thing is for sure. Nicoleta's life is never going to be the same again!
