The Care and Feeding of Stray Vampires
Iris Scanlon, Half-Moon Hollow’s only daytime vampire concierge, knows more about the undead than she’d like. She's the go-to human for all your bloodsucking errands, whether it's picking up your dry cleaning or a new batch of O negative.

Her newest client, however, threatens to disrupt her norm. Cal is gorgeous but he's also trouble. Iris finds him poisoned on his kitchen floor, and he offers her a lot of money to keep him hidden at her place until he figures out who is trying to kill him. She's his employee, nothing more, but the longer he sticks around, the more Iris finds herself breaking the rules for Cal.
