First published in 1999 and now re-released in its third printing, the definitive "author's cut," The Cowboy and the Vampire: A Very Unusual Romance is the first book of The Cowboy and the Vampire Collection. It's been called everything from a cult classic to a trailblazer in a new genre: Western Gothic.

Welcome to LonePine, Wyoming, population 438, where the best of the west faces off against the rise of the undead. It's a love story for the ages when a broke cowboy and a glamorous big city reporter fall lipstick over boot heels in love. But she carries a 2000-year-old secret in her veins that will test their unusual romance to the very edge of death, and beyond.

Saddle up for a hilarious, existential ride through the dying American west with an army of ancient bloodsuckers in hot pursuit.
