This Changes Everything: Vampire Romance in the Faetful Universe

How I slept with a vampire and changed the universe. You ever have that moment when you toss everything out the window, including your common sense? Not me; it is rare, yet for some reason, trapped in a room with a vampire, I decide to ignore all my self-preservation. And well... this changes everything.
