Meet Alexis Stanton, a 5' 4" petite young woman with a yen for adventure. She grew up as a tomboy wishing she could have all the adventures boys could have. She has since decided that being a boy instead of a girl has its advantages, but being a woman is much better. Raised in a family with money, she was able to pick and choose her education. She had been schooled in everything from being a lady to courses with Special Forces instructors. Her desire for adventure and her boredom with her current employment and a strange 'HELP WANTED' ad causes her to quit. She finds that job she could "just die for"... and it looks like she just might! A creepy mansion house might not be everyone's idea of the perfect vacation, but to Ashlyn it's exactly the peace and solitude she's been looking for. Arriving in the middle of a thunderstorm, she imagines Dracula coming to greet her but has no such luck. As the storm passes, she heads out into the moonlit garden and discovers a mysterious man, handsome enough to rival Dracula. Tristan is as otherworldly as they come. With an old way of speaking and antiquated dress, his aura of mystery is only enhanced by the fact he claims to know Ashyln and only appears at night. Spending her days thinking about him, Ashlyn realises that she does know his face, but she can't remember where she's seen him before. One fateful evening, she's walking the grounds of the house when she comes across a statue in the garden and the mystery of Tristan is revealed when the moonlight touches it. When he explains that he was cursed centuries ago by a relative of hers because he didn't love her and that it was Ashlyn's touch years ago that made him able to walk under moonlight, Ashlyn decides to do everything in her power to free him, even if that means falling in love again.
