Alexander is a 150 year old vampire with a lust for blood. But, the blood isn't all that he enjoys. He thoroughly delights in the act of taking blood from an unwilling victim. The ear-piercing screams are like music to his undead ears. That is, until he met HER!
Fiona is a 30 year old werewolf. She's just like any other modern-day woman that you would meet in the teller line at your local bank. She has to deal with her annoying family, numerous failed relationships--including one where she found her boyfriend in bed with HIS boyfriend--and pressure to marry from everyone around her.
Alex becomes instantly infatuated with the lovely Fiona and is very intrigued by the unusual scent that emanates from her. His infatuation becomes very useful when Fiona's pack decides to instigate their "Fight or Wed" law; which in turn leaves Fiona lying on a forest floor bleeding profusely. Alex is forced to do what vampires do... turn her!
With Fiona's pack hot on their trail, what will become of this unusual pair? Will they be able to avoid Fiona's pack of vicious revenge-seeking werewolves? Will Fiona be able to look past Alex's undead demeanor?
Excerpt

My name is Alexander and I'm an addict. I'm addicted to blood. It's all I think about during my waking hours. I count down the minutes until my next drink. Oh, wait, didn't I mention that I'm a vampire? I didn't? Well, I am. I'm a one hundred and fifty year old vampire who loves the act of taking blood from an unwilling victim. It's my addiction.

I enjoy the hunt, the look of terror on my victim's face, and then the screaming and struggling when she realizes exactly what I am; a savage, blood-thirsty vampire! Until the day I met.....HER!
