Hallowed Ones & The Outside
I loved this series, simply because it was such a unique take on the vampire story. Our heroine Katie is a girl living in the Amish community. All she can think about is the fact that she will be going on Rumspringa soon. She is ready to experience the outside world for the first time. However, all that changes when a contagion spreads through the country leaving people changed into something dark and evil. These are not nice vampires; they are deadly and terrifying. Strangely, Katie's community seems to be untouched, and they close the gates and forbid any contact with the outside world. Katie goes against her community when she finds an injured man on the edge of their property. She knows she can't leave him to die, so she hides him and nurses him back to health.
