Lucy West's introduction to vampires involves pepper spray, sirens, and an ER visit.
Court-ordered into Alcoholics Anonymous after a drunken spiral, Lucy has no patience for strange men-especially when one stares too long and bites her.
Lucy wants one thing: to forget. After witnessing her brother's sudden, violent death, grief has hollowed her out, leaving her drifting through a life she barely recognizes. Demi, the awkward, out-of-touch vampire she pepper-sprays, offers her a dangerous solution. He can erase her most painful memory if she helps him survive the modern world.
Teaching a centuries-old vampire to use a phone, drive a car, and pass as human is supposed to be a distraction, but it isn't. Instead, Lucy finds herself drawn into his quiet sorrow and unexpected kindness. With Demi, she isn't broken and doesn't need fixing or saving.
But the fragile balance she's found doesn't last. When events spiral out of her control, Lucy is forced to confront the grief she tried to escape, the fragile connection that brought her back to life, and the question she's avoided since her brother died:
What if healing means remembering?
Grief Sucks is a darkly funny urban fantasy with emotional depth and a slow-burn romantic thread, exploring loss, recovery, and the messy ways we survive what breaks us.
Perfect for fans of What We Do in the Shadows and Such Sharp Teeth by Rachel Harrison, blending supernatural weirdness with sharp humor and emotional depth.
