Lenobia's Vow by P.C and Kristen Cast

Atom, 2012. ISBN 9781907411199.
Before Zoey knew Lenobia as a professor and the House of Night's horse mistress, she was an ordinary teenage girl . . . but with a lifetime worth of problems. Lenobia's mother sent her on a ship to New Orleans. On the same ship is an evil bishop skilled in Dark magic and he wants her. On her new journey Lenobia hides in the stables away from the Dark bishop and finds herself face-to-face with love. Getting Marked as a vampire turns her world in the opposite direction.
The novella explains Lenobia's background. The book answers why Lenobia doesn't have a partner and explains why she is the House of Night's horse mistress in the House of Night series. The author's writing is thrilling and is a great read. I could not put it down. There are a few touchy scenes that make the book better, just love this novella.
