Lucky Break (2011)
“‘And you two are the spitting image of your mother.’ She was older, obviously, than the photo they’d seen of their mom and her hairstyle was different – but there was no denying it. She looked just like their mother, the same mischievous smile, the same oval chin. Ivy was so surprised, she couldn’t think of anything to say.
‘I didn’t know she was a twin,’ Olivia said, grabbing Ivy’s hand under the table.
A few months ago, when Ivy learned that their mother had died in childbirth, it had felt ho...llow, like something was missing. Aunt Rebecca was the closest she would ever get to her real mom, and she couldn’t get closer than a twin. Ivy squeezed Olivia’s hand back.
‘I wish you’d known about me,’ said Aunt Rebecca, casting a glance at Mr Vega. ‘And that I’d known about you.’ Uh oh. Ivy realised that there was some tension between the two adults. That’s why he brought us to Mr Smoothie: the First Law of the Night. No humans could ever know that vampires existed – Olivia being a rare exception – so Mr Vega had to be extra careful that Rebecca didn’t get any hint of the truth.MoreLess
