After moving into a new place for a fresh start, recently graduated nurse, Maria, begins to notice something odd about her neighbor.

Sure, he may work the night shift like her—that would explain his shades being drawn during the day. But his pale skin, sneaky demeanor—oh, and ability to transform into a bat and fly off into the sky… all kind of screams vampire to Maria!

Yet, unlike any bloodsucker she's seen on TV, Maria's neighbor, Alessandro, is more gentle and loving than she thinks her heart can handle. However, Alessandro's past is far from simple, and Maria came to Sedona for a fresh start, not to fall in love with a vampire. Will she be able to handle the dark secrets of his past, or will their relationship fizzle away before it even had a chance to blossom?

THE VAMPIRE NEXT DOOR

As the sun began to rise, Maria crawled into bed. Her limbs felt heavier than usual as her mind bogged down with thoughts from her discussion with Desdemona. If Maria continued whatever spark of romance was between her and Alessandro, she could single-handedly be responsible for an entire Kingdom falling to ruins. 


Worse yet…she could be accountable for Alessandro's death.


Maria lay staring up at the large canopy spread above her. Her eyes were weighty, not merely from sleep but from the sinking sensation caused by the world that seemed to have it out for her.


She had to tell Alessandro to marry Desdemona. It was the only way.
