Scared Sexy Collection
by Ruby Dixon
Space Vampire (Scared Sexy Collection) by Ruby Dixon
Unrated

In a universe full of heartless aliens, an abandoned human and a vampire clone discover an unexpected connection in this delightfully bite-size short story by New York Times bestselling author Ruby Dixon.

Dana, the overlooked human pet of an alien scientist, and Vlad, a genetically engineered vampire with a taste for more than just blood, find themselves unexpectedly alone on a deserted space station. As they plot their escape, they’ll have to navigate cramped quarters, steamy encounters, and the growing realization that they might be each other’s perfect match. But with their captors in hot pursuit, will their budding romance survive the vast emptiness of space?

Ruby Dixon’s Space Vampire is part of Scared Sexy, a deliciously dark collection of Halloween romance where things that go bump in the night might just steal your heart. These seductive stand-alone stories blend chills and heat in the perfect Halloween treat—each designed to be devoured in one sitting.

Ruby Dixon

Ruby Dixon has become one of the most talked-about voices in romance, a writer who turned unlikely ideas into an entire phenomenon. Her books ask what happens when love collides with survival, when tenderness grows in alien landscapes, and when desire takes forms no one quite expects. Readers first discovered her through Ice Planet Barbarians, a series that began as a self-published experiment and blossomed into a cult favorite, later republished by Berkley Books. What started with humans stranded on a frozen world and blue-skinned warriors has grown into a sprawling universe, complete with spin-offs, clones, and countless reader discussions dissecting every detail of her imagined culture.

Dixon’s work rarely fits into tidy categories. She writes across science fiction romance, fantasy romance, and what fans have lovingly labeled “monster romance.” Her characters wrestle with survival, identity, power, and belonging while navigating relationships that can be as strange as they are heartfelt. The heat in her books is undeniable, but so is the emotional core, with stories of found family, trust built in dangerous circumstances, and the longing to be truly seen.

She writes from her home in the Southern United States, where she lives with her husband and a couple of cats. In interviews and newsletters she often lets readers glimpse her quirks: she is a Sagittarius, a devoted coffee drinker, a fan of farming sims in the digital sense rather than the real-life chores, and a proud Reylo shipper. These glimpses reinforce what her stories already suggest, that she delights in exploring obsessions and unlikely pairings, in taking the unusual seriously, and in finding joy in places others might overlook.

Prolific and fearless, Dixon has expanded far beyond the frozen tundras of Not-Hoth. Her Fireblood Dragons, Corsairs, Risdaverse, and Bedlam Butchers MC books each explore different shades of speculative romance. Her recent foray into romantasy with Bull Moon Rising proves she is still restless, still chasing new worlds to build. Critics and readers alike note how quickly she writes, yet her pace never feels rushed; instead it mirrors her ability to channel imagination without hesitation, as though she trusts her wildest ideas enough to set them free.

Today, Dixon stands as one of the defining figures of modern romance that embraces the strange. She writes the books she once wished existed, and in doing so, opened the door for countless readers to admit they wanted the same thing, stories where passion and imagination refuse to stay in familiar shapes.
