Kill them all!!!!

Love Sucks begins in the early seventeen hundreds. Most people ask why a period piece? They wonder why it isn't started in present time. I think for readers to really understand Cara's journey as a vampire, you have to start from the beginning. In the book, being a vampire at that time wasn't something humans weren't aware of. The humans knew of the vampire kind and were trying desperately to wipe the whole European race of vampires out. Groups of vampires killers had formed around the world and had nearly extinguished the race completely. People's homes were raided, forests were burned, and every person thought to be a vampire was hunted down and staked. I think in order for the readers to understand what obstacles Cara has to overcome, they have to see what it was like for her at the time of her creation.
