Buffy the Vampire Slayer gets a modern, body-positive makeover in the second of Gloria Duke's charming paranormal romantic comedies.

You thought life was hard for a vampire? Try being the newest Slayer on the block. Yet just when Carrie Adams thought it couldn't get any worse, she learns that in the world of the unexpectedly supernatural, nothing is ever what it seems.

Meet Carrie Adams - serious, disciplined, and focused. But as an aspiring actress, she's at the mercy of casting directors who barely glance at her headshot before making snap judgments about her talent based solely on her looks. She feels powerless... until one night she goes from snarling at her obnoxiously attractive coworker (musician-slash-bartender Nick Stokes) to wanting to kill him. Literally.

Turns out Nick has become LA's latest vampire and she is his chosen Slayer... a decidedly unwelcome job that comes with an overnight super-bodybuilder-buff physique, the ability to conjure a sword made of fire, and a new gang of supernatural enemies out for her blood. Nick swears he'll help her. Carrie swears she'll figure out how to help herself.

But in a Hollywood-bright world of typecasting, can a Slayer and her sworn vampire nemesis break free of their assigned roles... and discover the deeper emotions there for the staking?
