Vampire Love

Twilight by Stephanie Meyer

17-year-old Bella leaves Phoenix to live with her father in Washington State, where she meets an inhumanly beautiful boy. His whole family is smart, beautiful and aloof. Bella watches them in the cafeteria in school, where they never seem to eat. She is overwhelmingly attracted to Edward, and he to her. But he must control himself – he’s a vampire and the blood lust is almost overwhelming. Being assigned seats next to each other in science class is almost more than he can bear. Bella, in turn, takes tremendous risks just to be with him. This is a beautiful fantasy and an exquisite love story, with tension running through it, as both sides risk everything to be together.

Tired of vampire love? Try some ghost love: A Certain Slant of Light by Laura Whitcomb

Helen was a young mother when she died. Due to a sense of guilt, she did not leave earth, but instead has attached herself to a series of hosts and followed them silently through their earthly lives, invisible and unheard. Being too far from her host terrifies her, and makes her feel like she is being dragged underground. Her current host is a high school teacher, and in his class one day, she realizes that one of his students can see her. This has not happened in over 100 years. James is also dead, but has inhabited the body of a young boy who overdosed on drugs, and has adopted his identity. James and Helen fall in love, and Helen finds a host body so they can be together physically, as well as spiritually. James lives as Billy, foulmouthed and irresponsible. Helen lives as Jenny, whose personality was overwhelmed by her strict, controlling family. James and Helen struggle to be together, as Billy and Jenny’s families try to keep them apart. Can the ghosts restore Billy and Jenny to their own bodies and still remain together?
