This was a fantastic novella.  To sum up briefly... Welcome to a world where humans know about vampires, with vampire districts (kind of like red light districts) where vampires socialize and live. For some humans the lifestyle is very appealing and will enter social contracts to become feeders in order to experience the exciting world of vampirism. Proper Erica is looking for her wayward missing sister who she suspects has become a feeder.  Maxwell (a vampire) is a detective who enforces the "rules" between vampire and human.  Maxwell instantly sees that Erica need assistance and offers to help,  to which Erica reluctantly accepts. Thus Erica is introduced into the life of a feeder in order to find her sister.  (You get all this from the first 10-15 pages of the book.)First a great big thanks to the author who knows how to actually write a short novel. After reading some poorly written free romances lately she gets an extra star for great writing.  Unlike some of her counterparts she has a beginning, a middle, and an end.  She has a protagonist/ conflict and a climax (no pun intended).  It was really refreshing after reading some other paranormal shorts to have an author deliver a properly constructed story.Second... wow the sexual tension is amazing.  For a romance to really grab me there has to be great sexual tension and she delivered.  I really loved the interplay between Maxwell and Erica and I felt they had chemistry... it made sense that they would get together.  Their dialog was believable and because it is a novella she did not have 5 page descriptive sex scenes which can bog down a good story.  One note of caution... she does discuss/describe domination and voyeurism in the story, as part of the vampire nightlife...(her characters thankfully do not participate) but she does it in a really good way that is not over-the-top kinky and should not make any reader overly uncomfortable.In short... I look forward to reading more of her work!!!
