[PRE-ORDER] Villain Edit by Rosie Danan

A struggling reality TV producer tries to turn a reluctant vampire into the first supernatural lead of a hit dating show—and ends up falling for the one “contestant” she can’t control. This steamy paranormal rom-com serves sunshine chaos, camera-ready banter, and a vampire prince who’s more awkwardly adorable than dark-and-broody (until he isn’t).

Gabriel Hargrave is a vampire crown prince on a humiliating “diplomatic assignment,” exiled among humans until he proves he can master the thirst that’s supposedly destined to destroy him. His plan: keep his head down in a SoCal retirement community where no one would ever suspect royalty. Then Harper Calloway moves in next door—with a desperate career problem and a truly unhinged solution.

Harper knows great TV, and she knows a once-in-a-lifetime hook when she sees it. If she can deliver Gabriel to the network as the first vampire lead on Rare Pair, she gets her job back—and her redemption. The catch? The network gives her three weeks to turn a reluctant, blood-avoiding vampire prince into a swoon-worthy star. If he flops, she’s done. If he succeeds… she might be the one who can’t survive the exposure.
