If you’re craving a paranormal rom-com with bite, this one’s got claws and heart. Ben Rosewood, a sweater-vest-wearing werewolf with anxiety and a thriving plant shop, accidentally wins a cursed crystal on eBay—only to unleash Eleanora, a centuries-old vampire succubus with a thirst for revenge and a flair for Star Trek references.

Their forced proximity sparks a slow-burn romance full of magical mishaps, emotional healing, and laugh-out-loud moments. Think cozy vibes with a side of bloodlust and banter. Hawley balances quirky humor with deeper themes like trauma, consent, and self-worth, all wrapped in a delightfully madcap package.

This book was fun!
Besides the hilarious premise, there’s an election secondary plot.
I had fun with this one and appreciated both the characters and whimsy.
