Adrian Tepes is the golden boy of Transylvania. He's handsome, popular, has incredible grades, great friends, and comes from one of Transylvania's wealthiest, and most respected families. With an owner of multiple publishing companies for a father and a doctor for a mom who've been happily married for nearly twenty years, he's got a life most people would kill for. He might even enjoy it himself if not for the severe depression and PTSD from a summer fling gone horribly wrong, leaving the kind, sensitive boy jaded and scarred for life.
Since then, he's left Transylvania and moved to New York City with his friends Trevor Belmont, Sypha Belnades, and Greta Thompson to pursue an art study at NYU (with what little is left of his internal creative spark). And it's there in the city that never sleeps where Adrian meets the effervescent Ali Rose.
Ali is a former theater girl from California who came to New York looking for an escape from her family and her past. She's basically made up of chaos, caffeine, glitter, and occasionally questionable decisions in an attempt to (poorly) mask her own self - destructive behavior.
Where Adrian is quiet, Ali is loud. She loves concerts, parties, late nights out on the town, and her black German Shepard, Gomez. He loves libraries, museums, just about anything elaborately Victorian and gothic, and of course, art.
On paper, they seem like they'd be opposites. But when an accidental collision brings them into each other's lives, a new kind of spark flickers to life between them; one that brings a newfound sense of inspiration and passion, and maybe a few growing pains along the way. They know they can't fix each other, but the closer they get, the more they might just realize that they can make each other's load lighter.
