Long in the Tooth

Why are centuries-old vampires always falling for high school girls? Wouldn't they want someone closer their own age?

Cornelius Van Hoyk has been a member of the charmingly undead since 1869. Has he held a passing fancy for a target of his sanguine pursuits? Of course, but it's been years. Today's young women simply do not appeal. Youth is wasted on the young, they say, and his time is wasted on "#them." But what's to be done? A vampire must eat, and an attractive young man must pursue beautiful, malleable young women...

But when Cornelius meets his latest conquest's grandmother, all bets are off. Dorothy Leigh is everything he ever wanted in a woman: intelligent, mature, witty... experienced. But convincing Dorothy to see him for the sesquicentennial man he is on the inside and not the buff and virile stud he appears on the outside will prove a challenge. How do you woo a woman who's been around the block and knows every trick in the book?

By writing a new book, of course.
 

Long in the Tooth is a romantic novella meant as a light-hearted response to an unfortunate trend, written by an author who might be aging out the young-woman age bracket. Might be.

About the Author

Killian McRae would tell you that she is a rather boring lass, an authoress whose characters' lives are so much more exciting than her own. She would be right. Sadly, this sarcastic lexophile leads a rather mundane existence in the San Francisco Bay Area. She once dreamed of being the female Indiana Jones, and to that end she earned a degree in Middle Eastern History from the University of Michigan. However, when she learned that real archaeologists spend more time lovingly removing dust with toothbrushes from shards of pottery than outrunning intriguing villains with exotic accents, she decided to become a writer instead. She writes across many genres, including science fiction, fantasy, romance, and historical fiction.
