Aiden Appleton Aiden Appleton is no longer the pale, wide-eyed boy who had once prowled the orchards under the silver glow of the moon. Time had done something curious to him-something unheard of among his kind.Aiden isn't your ordinary vampire-he has no taste for blood, only apples. By moonlight, he sneaks into orchards, filling his nights with crunchy, sweet feasts. When dark forces threaten the quiet town nearby, Aiden's unusual powers and love for apples give him the strength to protect the people-and prove that even the most unlikely hero can save the day.
