Blood may be thicker than water — but family is where you make it. Penny is just trying to find her missing sister when she stumbles into an Orlando nightclub run by immortals. Dare is a three-thousand-year-old Night Elf (please don't call him a vampire!) cursed to police his own kind — and slowly dying because of it. When Penny and Dare cross paths, neither is looking for love. What they find instead is something far rarer: an ally they can trust. Hunted by Night Elves, chased by ancient laws, and racing the sunrise itself, the two form an unlikely partnership — a mortal woman armed with stubborn courage and a weary immortal who’s forgotten how to hope. Sometimes the person who saves you isn’t your soulmate. Sometimes it’s just the friend you need. Someday My Count Will Come is a fast-paced urban fantasy novella featuring found family, gallows humor, supernatural danger, and a strictly platonic partnership between a human woman and a very tired vampire. No romance. No love triangle. Just survival, loyalty — and one very grumpy count. *** This story was originally released in an anthology called Vampires of the Caribbean. I heard the name of the anthology, and had to write a story for it, just because I knew Dare would find the Caribbean torture.
