The Great Gatsby meets The Vampire Diaries in this spicy modern retelling of F. Scott
Fitzgerald's classic. *** Seven years ago I lost him for good. Now he's back but is he
still the Jay Gatsby I used to know...or is he something more? Something...darker. Daisy
Finnegan is looking forward to a summer of fun on Glassy Mountain North Carolina. She doesn't
want to think about college or the newly awakened power of her own voice which has a way of
making people do increasingly frightening things. But when her cousin goes missing at an
exclusive house party Daisy confronts the mysterious host...only to discover the wealthy
recluse is Jay Gatsby her childhood sweetheart. Shocked at the change in the boy she once knew
so well Daisy investigates the source of Gatsby's new riches and becomes entangled in a web of
dizzying wealth lies and obsession darker than she ever could have dreamed. It all culminates
in an act of violence that shatters the summer haze and threatens to drown them all. But it
isn't until Gatsby is shot through the heart-and survives-that Daisy learns the whole truth.
Gatsby clawed his way up in the world by selling the secret of immortality to the highest
bidder using his lavish parties as the ultimate cover. But Gatsby's intricately laid plans are
in danger...and so by extension is he. With her friends' lives at stake her own untested
power still volatile and an unimaginable threat closing in Daisy will have to face an
impossible choice: side with the man who claimed her heart...or with the monsters who would see
him lost to her forever. The first book in the GILDED MONSTERS series featuring
