    About this ebook

    Maybe a little blood is a fair trade for being wanted...

    Vincent hoped the anonymity of college would finally set him free of the outcast, melancholic cloud he'd been living under—but his first party leaves him tucked in a corner, pining for men he can't find the courage to come out to. When the one guy who seeks him out has sharp fangs and an agenda, Vincent finds that vampires scare him far less than loneliness.

    This mildly steamy, one-scene short story shows Vincent's first meeting with the alluring but uncomfortably predatory vampire Davis. It takes place four years before the novel How to Bite Your Neighbor and Win a Wager and can be enjoyed on its own or after reading the novel.
