In a universe full of heartless aliens, an abandoned human and a vampire clone discover an unexpected connection in this delightfully bite-size short story by New York Times bestselling author Ruby Dixon.

Dana, the overlooked human pet of an alien scientist, and Vlad, a genetically engineered vampire with a taste for more than just blood, find themselves unexpectedly alone on a deserted space station. As they plot their escape, they’ll have to navigate cramped quarters, steamy encounters, and the growing realization that they might be each other’s perfect match. But with their captors in hot pursuit, will their budding romance survive the vast emptiness of space?

Ruby Dixon’s Space Vampire is part of Scared Sexy, a deliciously dark collection of Halloween romance where things that go bump in the night might just steal your heart. These seductive stand-alone stories blend chills and heat in the perfect Halloween treat—each designed to be devoured in one sitting.

A vampire mesakkah?! Okay!

Yeah, I'll accept this one because it's Ruby Dixon, and Vlad (Good job on the name Dana 🤣🤣🤣) is a Splice (clone of 2 or more species). I loved it! Like I love all her stories!!!

5 stars

Adorable, Hot, and Surprisingly Heartfelt.

Monster romances aren’t usually my genre—but maybe they should be, because this was adorable, hot, and I loved every minute of it.

I would absolutely read a full-length novel about Dana and Vlad, but at the same time, this worked perfectly as a novella. It felt like a complete story with a well-rounded, easy-to-understand world and great pacing. Just the right amount of spice, too.

The narrators did a fantastic job bringing it all to life.

Space + Vampires = Comedic Gold

I would have never thought to mesh vampires and space together, but Ruby Dixon did. This was my first book by this author and I thought it was good!

Classic Ruby Dixon

What can I say? This author knows how to write romance in any form. Vampire and human or I think she could write bug and plant. Keep them coming and I will read them.

a cute and easy listen

The actor who provides the voice of Vlad is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would have liked a couple chech-ins of their life during the 4-month blah blah blah (spoilers 🤭) but, overall, it was a fun story.
