When Nevada Justice decides to take a vacation, she bypasses all thoughts of destinations like Rome or Hawaii and heads straight to Vampiropolis, one of the few self-sufficient all-vampire cities in the country.

Two days before she’s to return home, Nevada heads to a simple bar, hoping to get away from the tourist traps and patronize a place where the locals go. There she meets Lucian Sandros, a sexy, handsome vampire. Boldly assertive and fiercely seductive, Lucian won’t take no for an answer. The two begin a sizzling vacation fling, something meant to start—and finish—in Vampiropolis. But when Lucian enters Nevada’s world, intent on claiming her for his own, will she have the courage to admit she’s fallen in love with a vampire?

Author Selena Illyria has created an fun novella, complete with a feisty, independent heroine and a brooding, sexy vampire for a hero. What makes this tale somewhat unique, however, is Vampiropolis itself: a fully functioning city, inhabited completely by the creatures of the night. The chemistry between Lucian and Nevada is smoking hot; the internal and external conflict is well portrayed and wonderfully resolved in the end. When Nevada touches on a sore spot with Lucian, I was a little annoyed by his tantrum and wanted there to be more interaction, but really enjoyed their next encounter and the conflict resolution. All in all, A Fling in Vampiropolis is a great, entertaining read.
