WT: Krysta German
A Series
A series of books about a girl, Krysta German, who finds out that vampires are real and that one of them has an infatuation with her.
The series starts out in the same vein of the average YA novel --light-hearted and sorta romantic-- but then starts to diverge and deconstruct as more characters are introduced and new themes are explored.

The Series' Riveting Beginning
Something about him has her insides screaming to run, and to run far. Now, Krysta's no stranger to the bizarre, you know?, what with her 'witch' of a grandmother and all, but... something about this guy has her hair standing on end. From the hungry look in his dark eyes to his uncanny stillness, there's just something so predatory about Adrian.
And then, of course, he's not the only thing taking up real-estate in her mind —oh no, no, sir, not by a country-mile. From helping her mother —with whom she has a strained relationship—tend to a practical army of siblings, to a new school of culture barriers, to the mysterious pattern of violent murders that seem to be getting closer, there's a million things going on and only 23.93 hours in a day.
And that's not even getting into the shit in her head.
If things keep piling up—and if she's not careful about it--Krysta just might wind up in the hospital again...

Towns and Other Locations
Old Kethwyke
The former seat of Bering County, this city was incorporated in 1888 --though the name dates back to the establishment of a post office in 1867-- Old Kethwyke was then known simply as Kethwyke. After a train-route between Toledo and the infamous Bluebird lane was established, many moved down the road and founded "New" Kethwyke. Once the highways connected New Kethwyke to Nantlea and the rest of Oregon, many people began to leave for those two cities. Currently, Old Kethwyke stands as a town in decline, not likely to last another 50 years.
New Kethwyke
Unofficial residence of New Kethwyke began in 1887 in preparation of the Oregon Pacific Railroad, which was planned to pass by on it's way to Albany.
