The Beloved — J.F. Gonzalez

Ronnie Baker thought his new girlfriend was perfect. But he couldn't see what his family did--that Diana and her children weren't quite normal, that somehow she was slowly sucking away his time, his money...his life.

Don Grant has been tracking the creature ever since it turned his wife into something barely more than a living zombie. He's traced its mayhem back for centuries. Feeding off lust and violence, it grows stronger and more seductive with each life it drains. Now he's finally caught up with it. But unless he can find a way to stop it--fast--the nightmare will be unleashed on a whole new family.
