A Vampire's Guide to Surviving Holidays — Matthew S. Cox

Sarah Wright has gone through a lifetime of mess in a mere five months, but her most difficult challenge yet is making it through Thanksgiving without spilling blood.It isn't only her extended family tempting her to sprout claws. A vampire hunter has arrived in Seattle, his sights set on Professor Heath. Worse, the hunter seems like a relatively nice guy. Dedicating one's entire life to destroying undead sounds like a perfectly reasonable response to witnessing a vampire kill your parents, right?She doesn't believe her mild professor used to be a bloodthirsty mass-murderer, nor does she want to straight-up kill a living man for merely existing. Her indecision and silence backfires. One of the local vampire elders, still fuming over Sarah's decision to remain with her mortal family, seizes the chance to back her into a political corner:If Sarah doesn't kill the hunter, she'll bear the responsibility for anyone he destroys.
