Quirky, sexy, bright Milagro De Los Santos is forced to take another ghostwriting job for hoaxer Don Pedro when she can’t pay her condo fees. Her romantic life isn’t much better. She’s conflicted about her torrid affair with dangerous Vampire Council Director Ian Ducharme and still yearning for her ex-fiancé, Dr. Oswald Grant, and her life at his wine-country ranch. When Ian’s flirtations with a pretty neighbor infuriate Milagro, she travels to London, and the blood really hits the fan. People around her are dying grisly deaths, and Milagro’s framed for murder.

Funny, sexy aspiring writer Milagro De Los Santos thinks she's finally found love and a home at the California ranch of fabulous Oswald Grant, MD, and his snobby relatives, who have a rare genetic disorder that some call vampirism. But Milagro is bewildered when she's excluded from a mysterious midnight ceremony whose participants include Oswald's hostile parents, a creepy family elder, and Milagro's ex-lover, decadent and powerful aristovamp Ian Ducharme.

Then one night, at a book party for her pretentious ex, she meets Oswald, a fabulous man. A mad kissing session leads to cut lips and an accidental exchange of blood. Then for the first time in Milagro's life, she becomes sick and develops strange cravings for raw meat.
