Ravenslight creek book #1

A Visitor's Guide to Guarded Vampires

Ellery runs to Alaska to finally live life on her own terms. Too bad nobody mentioned her grumpy new boss isn’t quite human.

Twenty-four years of being the perfect daughter ends with one explosive fight and a one-way ticket to the last place her parents would ever look. She’s here to learn how to stand on her own two feet. Falling for the locals is not on the itinerary.

Nick would like it noted, for the record, that he did not sign up for any of this. He didn’t ask to be a vampire. He didn’t ask to inherit his dead father’s tour company, or swear allegiance to the interspecies pact that chains him to Ravenslight Creek for the rest of his long life. And he definitely didn’t ask to hire some wide-eyed city girl in an impractical coat (that part was his meddling mother).

But stuck together under the northern lights, night after night, something shifts. For the first time in her life, Ellery feels seen. And Nick, who gave up on wanting anything long ago, starts to want her. Badly.

When something with teeth comes hunting too close to town, too close to Ellery, Nick is forced to show her exactly what he is, and pray she doesn’t run screaming back to New York. Or put a stake through his heart.

He can’t leave.

She was never supposed to stay.

Falling in love was never part of the plan.

A slow-burn, cozy paranormal romance under the Alaskan northern lights.

Northern Exposure meets Gilmore Girls but with vampires. Perfect for fans of The Ex Hex, My Roommate is a Vampire and A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon.
