I woke up dead. Big bummer. Covered in blood and sporting fangs? Even worse. Then the vampire king summons me—I have one week before I’m shackled to a century of servitude.

The thing is, I have an eidetic memory and a can-do attitude. It won’t take me a hundred years to learn Vampire 101. And servitude? Not on my to-do list. I need to escape before they sink their teeth into me (again).

The only problem? My sire’s been assigned to keep an eye on me, and he keeps looking at me like I’m a fine glass of merlot. Escape won’t be easy.

My name’s Bunny, but they’ll learn—I’m not prey.
