Vanessa Shingle has a knack for choosing boyfriends who need fixing―the juvenile delinquent, the school cheat, the slacker....Then she meets Jean-Paul McClellan―the perfect project!
Vanessa is determined to find out Jean-Paul's story. Why would such a smart hunk waste his life as a janitor? She drags her best friend Stork on a nighttime mission to learn more. What she sees makes her blood run cold.
Suddenly, Vanessa's little New Mexico town is overrun by vampires―obnoxious ones at that. And Vanessa seems to be their target. Is Jean-Paul one of them? If so, why is he being so nice to her? When he talks about prophecies and legacies and Romania, what's he really up to?
Vanessa finds herself with a real situation to fix―and she stakes her life on being able to rise to the challenge.

Aside from the books Dan Jolley has done for Lerner, he has also published a series of original YA novels called Alex Unlimited, as well as teen and junior novelizations for the movies Iron Man and Transformers 2. Dan has published hundreds of comic books from Marvel, DC, and most of the other major publishers in the country.
"Vanessa loves to date boys she can 'fix,' but with her newest project―a handsome and mysterious janitor named Jean-Paul―she may have bitten off more than she can chew. The My Boyfriend Is a Monster paranormal romance series features a different author, illustrator, monster, and setting for each volume, and this third book is as enjoyable as the first two. Jolley's story has just the right blend of humor and girl power, and Martinez's art combines horror thrills with cute boys, while staying firmly middle-school appropriate. And observant readers should now be able to spot what ties the different volumes together." --Booklist
(Journal)"A small-town teen fond of taking on difficult boyfriends as 'projects' acquires a taste for tougher challenges when her newest one turns into a giant bat. 'Vampires are like cockroaches. If you see one, you've got a few. If you see a few, you've got a lot." So explains Vanessa's mysterious but hunky new squeeze Jean-Paul after blowing his cover as a janitor by driving off an attacking band of preppy bloodsuckers–and then revealing that Vanessa herself is descended from a line of monster hunters, and he has been appointed her protector. Rescuing a beloved teacher from exsanguination (armed with industrial quantities of garlic powder and a shop-vac) not only proves the truth of Jean-Paul's observation but firms up Vanessa's vague career plans, too. Presented in graphic panels done in suitably gothic black and white and featuring both sharply drawn characters and plenty of snarky dialogue, this spirited standalone episode joins both its predecessors (I Love Him to Pieces and Made for Each Other) and the simultaneously publishing Under His Spell, by Marie P. Croall and illustrated by Hyeondo Park, as fine fare for Buffy fans of all...types. Hip, steamy fun." --Kirkus Reviews
