When Life Gives You Vampires (Slaying It) by Gloria Duke

A charming, Bridget Jones–style vampire rom-com with bite: messy, funny, and surprisingly tender about self-worth. When Life Gives You Vampires follows a 25-year-old plus-size heroine who wakes up with a hangover… and fangs—then has to navigate vampire politics, a very inconvenient attraction to her sire, and the reality of living forever in a body she’s been taught to criticize.

Lily Baines is used to waking up hungover, overweight, and underemployed. Waking up undead? New problem. After a little “light necking” turns into an accidental turning, Lily is determined to figure out what happened—and survive long enough to do something about it.

Tristan never meant to turn her (it’s against vampire law), but now they’re stuck together. They form an uneasy truce while dodging other vampires, an ancient Master who wants Lily twice-dead, Lily’s work rival turned slayer, and her mom’s tone-deaf romance/fitness advice. All while Lily wrestles with the biggest horror of all: living in a diet-obsessed world with a body that will never age, never die… and never change.

Falling for her maddeningly gorgeous sire? Easy. Staying alive long enough to decide who she wants to be forever? That’s the real fight.
