Vamped by David Sosnowski
In the 100-odd years since Martin Kowalski became a vampire during World War II, vampires have become the majority of the world's population, in part because of Martin's own efforts to help depressed and dying people by turning them into vampires. Now, regular humans are so rare that most are raised on farms. Martin doesn't have much going for him until the day he discovers six-year-old Isuzu Trooper Cassidy fleeing the vampires who killed her mother. Martin takes her in, at first intending that she be a delightful snack. But the little girl quickly grows on him, and he finds himself longing for her laughter more than her blood. As he grows into the role of unlikely parent, his worries increase exponentially. What if bloodthirsty neighbors discover he is harboring Isuzu? What if she gets sick? And what happens when she grows up and falls in love . . . with a vampire? Sosnowski's easy mixture of warmth and humor makes for a winning, original tale about love in the unlikeliest of worlds.
