Acknowledgments

 

 

I know they will never read this, but I’d like to thank the band
Imagine Dragons
for inspiring this book. Their song
Monster
is what gave me the idea for this book, and I listened to it on repeat while I was writing. I’m a huge fan!

A big thank you, as always, to my editor Lori Whitwam. I hope working on Defaced was more a pleasure than a chore!

Thank you, as well, to my proofreaders, Glynis Elliott and Kim Hayes. I hope you enjoyed the story!

And, of course, thank you to my readers. You keep me writing with your loyal support and kind words. I wouldn’t be an author if it wasn’t for you!

If you want to stay updated about my new releases, please sign up to my new release list on my blog. You will receive notification of when a new book comes out, together with exclusive previews and sales!

About the Author

 

 

Marissa Farrar is a multi-published romance, fantasy, and horror author. She was born in Devon, England, has travelled all over the world, and has lived in both Australia and Spain. She now resides in the countryside with her husband, three young children, a crazy Spanish dog, and two rescue cats. Despite returning to England, she daydreams of one day being able to split her time between her home country and the balmy, white sandy beaches of Spain.

Even though she’s been writing stories since she was small and held dreams of being a writer, her initial life plan went a different way.

In her youth, inspired by James Herriot, she decided to become a vet, and would regularly bring home new pets to her weary parents. Upon discovering her exams were never going to get her into a veterinary degree, she ended up studying Zoology. Once she completed her degree and realised she’d spent the majority trying to find time to write, she decided to follow her dream of being an author. Seven years later, she was published and two years after that she was able to say goodbye to the day job.

However, she’s continued to collect animals!

Marissa is the author of eighteen novels, including the dark vampire ‘Serenity’ series. Her short stories have been accepted for a number of anthologies including,
Their Dark Masters,
Red Skies Press,
Masters of Horror: Damned If You Don’t,
Triskaideka Books; and
2013: The Aftermath,
Pill Hill Press.
