About this ebook
Follow the continuing adventures of Ember and Sebastian from the USA Today Bestselling Vampire Girl Universe as they navigate the very human torture of being home for the holidays.
Holidays are rough. The expectations are high, the disappointments inevitable, and family is… well, tricky, even at the best of times.
This December, I'm going home for Christmas. It's the one time a year I actually get to see my family, and usually it's fine. This time? Well, let's just say navigating the normal crazy will be extra special with a vampire husband that none of my family got to see me marry, a fresh blood craving of my very own, and a more than slight aversion to the sun. Add to that an ex-boyfriend of mine is in town and causing trouble, and my best friend's husband has a big secret, and you have a cocktail for trouble not even my husband's very expensive cognac can ease the strain of.
Tis the season. Hopefully, we'll make it to the New Year alive. Well… as alive as we vampires get.

Chapter 1
Golden rays of sun settle over the naked man in bed next to me, bathing his skin in orange and yellow. I sigh in contentment as I turn the page in my book, my body pressed close to my husband's, the gentle rhythm of his breathing lulling me into a drowsy state as I read. I have a stack of books by the side of our bed. Some fiction, some non-fiction, some from my world, some from this new world I have become a part of in the last several months.
I'm devouring books about the history of Inferna and Avakiri, about the vampires and Fae who populate this new life of mine. It's bloody, fascinating, and full of conflict, like all histories. Whether human, vampire, Fae or other, the core nature of all species seems to be the same. Conquer and make war. I shake my head at the thought of it, and place a leather bookmark to keep my page before setting the book on the pile next to me. Snuggling back under the covers, I press my body against Sebastian's, enjoying the skin on skin contact.
When I married Sebastian in an impromptu Vegas wedding after being turned into a vampire, my whole life changed.
We could have stayed in Las Vegas. I could have kept my job as a librarian. But after being betrayed by my best friend and colleague, and losing my house to a fire while defeating the vampire trying to kill me, it seemed like a good time for a change.
And so here we are, in Inferna—a world of vampires and Fae I didn't even know existed until I met Sebastian. We are the permanent guests of Prince Ace, a vampire lord cursed with the deadly sin of sloth, which ironically makes him the most resourceful, inventive, hard-working prince of these Seven Realms.
It was a lot to take in at first. A whole other world separate from my own that we can travel to via mirror. Seven Realms ruled originally by the seven princes of hell and their father, King Lucian.
The king died many years ago in a great war, as did a few of his sons. Now, King Fenris, formerly Prince of War, rules with his wife, Queen Arianna, who is also the Midnight Star of Avakiri, the Fae kingdom.
I have been learning the history, and reading about the different princes and their offspring. After a brief stay at The Black Lotus, Sebastian and I headed to Inferna, where he introduced me to the vampire prince who turned him and saved his life so many years ago. Prince Ace offered me a job managing the castle library, while Sebastian became one of his Royal Guards. This life has suited us well. I'm learning to navigate a world without technology, and Sebastian and I are discovering the joys of married life, while I work out how to live as a vampire.
That last bit is a lot easier on Inferna, where the sun doesn't harm us. The earth sun will kill me, so I'm less inclined to test my luck on my home world these days, though we still go back from time to
