The Vampire's Geek — Charlie Richards

Toby Dallow followed his employer, mentor, and friend, Edwin Aldridge, to the small mountain town of Stone Ridge, Colorado. While he'd never begrudge Edwin the bond he has with his wolf shifter mate, Toby longs for something like that of his own. When a handsome stranger picks him up in a grocery store, at first, he thinks it's a joke. Learning the man is sincere, Toby takes advantage. After all, he thinks not too many sexy studs are into overweight science geeks.

Blamed for something he didn't do, Tullion Kuznetsov is on the run. Traveling back roads in search of a safe place to hole up, he stops for supplies. His vampiric senses fixate on the blood of a short, plump human browsing the cereal aisle. Drawing closer, mixed feelings assault him when he realizes he's finally found his beloved. Unable to resist his other half's siren call, Tullion embraces the gift Fate has given him…at least, for one night. Then, he'll need to walk away. After all, how can he, in good conscience, involve the shy, quiet Toby in his problems?
