Night of the Living Dandelion

When a stranger comes into my flower shop and orders bloodwort, Dracula orchid, devil's tongue, and strangleweed, I can't help but wonder...

IS THERE A VAMPIRE IN TOWN?

After spraining an ankle, flower shop owner Abby Knight is forced to get around on crutches. But what will she do for emotional support now that her fiance, Marco, is being called back to active duty? Before Marco leaves, he's determined to clear the name of his old army buddy Vlad Serban—who everyone thinks is a vampire...and responsible for the death of local nursing director Lori Willis.

Lori's body was found drained of blood. And Vlad is from Romania, has prominent canines, likes bizarre plants, and dresses in black. Abby herself has doubts when the evidence against Vlad piles up. But, as the women of New Chapel either swoon over Vlad or picket to throw him out of town, and Abby's cousin Jillian becomes convinced Vlad has turned her into a creature of the night, Abby realizes she's got to trust Marco's judgment about his friend. Soon, the stakes become literally life or death as Marco and Abby race to shed light on who killed Lori, before Vlad's life starts to really suck....
