Aurora

Consequences follow actions. Actions determine worthiness. Worthiness costs more than believed. When 118-year-old warrior Aurora is banished to Earth from her home world--the Gold Planet of Andorra--she loses her powerful sword and Special Power (the ability to control fire). On Earth, Aurora finds herself in the world of the Death Givers--a superhero organization tasked with stopping the dreaded Disappearances (kidnappings) from overwhelming the nation of Blood Dawn (formerly known as North America). While helping the Death Givers stop the Disappearances, Aurora struggles with keeping her true identity--she is a vampire!--from Earth's humans and deciding where exactly a romance with one of the Death Givers fits into the life that she becomes a part of. Will Aurora return home and regain her sword and her Special Power after her reckless actions ignite a deadly war? Or will she fall victim to a sacrifice curse that will cost her everything, including her worthiness and her life?
