Have you ever picked up a book that made you think, "I can’t believe I’m diving into this"? That was my reaction when I stumbled upon Space Vampire.

The Plot and Characters
At the heart of Space Vampire is Dana, a resilient 30-year-old woman who finds herself abducted and treated like a pet. Abandoned aboard a ship, she begins to hear unsettling noises, which heightens the tension and intrigue. Enter Vlad—a cloned vampire who, in his frantic search for blood, reveals a complexity that caught me off guard. Their dynamic is instantly captivating; Dana’s initial fear transforms into something more profound and tender as she learns more about Vlad.
What I adored about Dana is her strength in the midst of chaos. She’s not just a victim of circumstances; she evolves into a partner who stands up to her fears, making her an especially captivating heroine. And who could resist Vlad? His blend of vulnerability and primal instinct paints a compelling portrait of what it means to be both a monster and a protector. The emotional stakes became palpable as I navigated their journey together.
Writing Style and Themes
The writing in Space Vampire is engaging and offers a swift pace that kept me turning pages late into the night. The dialogue sparkles with wit and tension, perfectly capturing the precarious balance between fear and affection. I found the world-building particularly intriguing; the futuristic aspects felt real, and the stakes were high.
And let me just say—this novella is spicy. The heat between Dana and Vlad is palpable, making their encounters both passionate and deeply intimate. I loved how Vlad ensures that Dana feels desired, which brought a depth to their physical relationship. It’s hard to forget their moments of connection, specifically when Dana discovers Vlad’s concern for her safety—a heartwarming contrast to the ship’s sinister setting.
What I Wanted More Of
Now, let’s be honest: while I LOVED every moment, I wanted more—more depth, more pages! I was left yearning for additional chapters, wanting to delve deeper into their lives post-escape. The novella’s short length definitely left me wanting a full-length novel so I could truly savor their happy ever after.
