C.C. Hunter is the author of the young adult fantasy series Shadow Falls, including the books Born at Midnight and Awake at Dawn. She grew up in Alabama, where she caught lightning bugs, ran barefoot, and regularly rescued potential princes, in the form of Alabama bullfrogs, from her brothers. Today, she's still fascinated with lightning bugs, mostly wears shoes, but has turned her focus to rescuing mammals. She now lives in Texas with her four rescued cats, one dog, and a prince of a husband, who for the record, is so not a frog. When she's not writing, she's reading, spending time with her family, or shooting things--with a camera, not a gun. C.C. Hunter is a pseudonym. Her real name is Christie Craig and she also writes humorous romantic suspense romance novels.

Enter Shadow Falls: After Dark and meet a vampire named Della, who's about to discover what her own story is meant to be. . . .
Della had the perfect life--the family, a boyfriend, and a bright future--until she was turned, and abandoned by everyone she loves. She takes refuge at Shadow Falls, a camp for teens with paranormal powers. It's where she and her best friends, Kylie and Miranda, heal their heartbreak with laughter, and where Della is training to be a paranormal investigator--and she refuses to be distracted. That means there's no time for romance with Steve, a gorgeous shapeshifter whose kisses melt her heart. When a new vampire named Chase shows up at camp, Della's world is thrown into even more chaos. Arrogant and annoyingly sexy, Chase is a mystery . . . and the only mystery Della likes is one she can solve. She can't solve Chase, at least not while she's dealing with ghostly hauntings, vampire gangs and a web of family secrets. Can she prove herself as an investigator and keep her life--and her heart--intact? From bestselling author C. C. Hunter comes Reborn, the first book in a new series set once more in the world of Shadow Falls.

VOYA, August 2014 (Vol. 37, No. 3) - Matthew Weaver
Della Tsang is on the outs with her mother and father after dying and turning into a vampire. Fortunately, she attends Shadow Falls, a camp full of similarly paranormal people. But hot new vampire Chase is getting on her nerves. Best friends Kylie and Miranda think kissing Chase would solve Della’s problems, especially after Della’s secret shape-shifter boyfriend, Steve, kisses another girl. Della is also busy training to become an investigator. Not only is there a grisly murder to solve, but she also comes across a picture of her father as a young boy with a twin. Is her presumed-dead uncle actually a vampire? Could that be why her father has written her out of his life and a cousin has vanished? And just why is Chase hanging around? Part of Hunter’s continuing Shadow Falls series, Reborn is easy enough for a new reader to get the basic gist of the surrounding environment. Hunter easily walks the line between teen drama and fantasy and demonstrates a real flair for comedy. The sequence in which Della mistakes an actual hawk for Steve is particularly amusing. The love triangle is compelling and mysteries promising, but the story’s real strength comes as Della navigates tensions with her parents and seeks comfort from her campmates. In a tale of superpowered teenagers, it is the honest, ordinary moments between friends and family that make this a series worth reading. Reviewer: Matthew Weaver; Ages 15 to 18.Kirkus Reviews
2014-05-04Hunter (Chosen at Nightfall, 2013, etc.) returns to the supernatural school/camp Shadow Falls, switching protagonist from Kylie to Della—there's a love triangle, naturally.Della's efforts to conceal her vampire status have led her family to suspect her of drug use, alienating her from their esteem and affections. An offhand remark leads Della toward a family mystery and a missing uncle (possibly a fellow vampire). Back at Shadow Falls, Della has run-ins with a (hot, mysterious) new vampire, Chase, who competes with Steve, the sexy shape-shifter, for her affections. When Della catches the scent of a killer vampire after a double homicide, she begs the Fallen Research Unit (sort of a supernatural FBI) agent who runs the camp to work the case—it is her dream to work for the FRU. Complicating things, Chase is investigating too. Additional mysteries involve a ghost, Della's cousin and Della's health problems (a strange cold that causes her vampire senses to wax and wane—usually in ways that help the mystery plots). The many plotlines don't overwhelm as they're all predictable, and many eventually consolidate. Although the worldbuilding assumes readers are familiar with Hunter's earlier novels, snatches of narration sometimes repeat themselves. The strongest elements are the friendship among Della, Kylie and Miranda and their hilarious (and sometimes-naughty) girl-talk sessions.This is great for readers wanting to return to Shadow Falls, but it won't attract new audience members. (Paranormal romance. 14 & up)
