  Oliver and his daughter, Katie, are looking forward to visiting with Grandma and Grandpa. Ever since Katie's mother passed away, the holidays haven't been the same, but Oliver is determined to give his daughter a magical Christmas, complete with the woods, roaring fires and jolly snowmen. Little does he know, they aren't alone in this wintry wilderness. 
   
  While Oliver and Katie make their way along the icy roads, Dan and his girlfriend, Nadia, are experiencing a journey of their own out in the woods. The hike might seem like a romantic adventure to Nadia, but it's something far more important to Dan. He's on a quest to find the evil spirits hiding in this frozen landscape so he can become the hero who slayed the monsters. The voice in his head is insistent on the importance of his mission. But when Dan can't find any monsters to kill, it's everyone else who will need to be afraid of him and the darkness lurking within.

  Lorenzo 
   
   
   
  I rarely eat the food at my upscale Italian restaurant. Vampires need blood, not pasta. I crave the hunt, but I'm not a killer. A lady-killer, yes. There's something about the vampire in me that lures women. The only woman immune to my allure is my dearest and oldest friend, Lily. She helped me survive my transition to vampirism, despite also becoming a monster of sorts. Kind and full of life, Lily is everything I'm not. My unbeating heart wants more than friendship with the fairy, but I'm afraid to ruin our friendship. Besides, what would she want with a broody vampire?

  As a fairy, people rarely take me seriously. With my glow and wings, I understand why they look at me and think of Tinker Bell, not Aristotle, but the degree I'm working toward will prove them wrong. As if by some miracle, I think I may finally have a boyfriend, too. He's not the man I really want, but my vampire friend Lorenzo is off-limits. Besides, a human boyfriend may be a better choice since every woman in town isn't chasing him. If only my heart would accept that Lorenzo isn't the man for me . . .
