Summary

She and Reg were turned vampire over a century ago, and ever since, they've been beautiful, powerful, and immortal. Eternal youth, bottomless bank accounts, and living forever - what could be better? So it's a nightmare come true when, as punishment for one careless mistake, they're expelled from the vampire community and dumped in the middle of Nowhere, Iowa, doomed to live as mere mortals. Suddenly Charlie has to deal with zits, tears, and - worst of all - high school. But things start to change when she and Reg find a group of friends, including the deliciously good-looking Dexter. And though Charlie would give anything to be vampire again, she begins to appreciate some of the new experiences that humanity brings, too - the vibrant colors of a sunrise, the rich taste of coffee, and emotions that had been buried for a century. But nothing could make them forget the life they've left behind. When they're offered a second shot at immortality, Charlie is desperate to seize it. It'll just mean a total betrayal of all her new friends, who will forget she ever existed. She can handle that if it means she can live forever . . . right?
