Lorelei Matthews and Shimmer

Author Lorelei Matthews’s novel Shimmer with a glass of St. James Peach Wine

About the Book: Mikela Daniels thought she was living a perfect life, spending her days on the sunny beaches of California while tackling her anthropology degree. Her days of solitude are shattered when she is forced to return home after learning of the death of her parents, a place she never thought she would ever return to. While dealing with her grief and animosity towards her sister, Mikela meets a pair of remarkable beings who change her life in more ways than she could ever imagine, transforming her into the first human-vampire hybrid. Mikela must learn to deal with what she has become and find out who is on her side and who simply wants to use her to fulfill an ancient prophecy. Will she be able to traverse through this dark, new world, or will she succumb to something much, much darker?

About the Beverage: Lorelei recommends pairing SHIMMER with St. James Peach Wine because “Most of Shimmer is located within Alton, IL and Missouri. St. James Winery is the largest winery in Missouri, so picking a beverage from the region was important to me. The St. James Peach wine is a mildly fruity, clear wine that is perfect for sipping on. It's fun, flirty, and mysterious, much like I hope readers view Shimmer.”

About the Author: Lorelei graduated from Southern New Hampshire University, receiving her BA in Creative Writing and English. She has been writing since she was a freshman in high school and has one completed novel, Shimmer, with others in the works. While fantasy is her genre of choice, she has been known to write supernatural, horror, and erotica. She currently lives in Colorado with her husband and three daughters.
