Publisher's Summary

Life as Aileen knew it ended when she woke up in a morgue sporting a new set of fangs after a wild night out. Now, as a courier for the supernatural world, she balances figuring out this whole vampire thing with making enough to support her ice cream habit.

When a job goes disastrously awry and ends with a body on the ground, Aileen finds herself in over her head as she draws the attention of a powerful creature intent on her death.

Aileen will need to separate her allies from her enemies before it's too late. To survive, she'll work with a being she swore to avoid at all costs - a powerful vampire who may hold the key to her survival. Or the flame from which her world burns.

I could not finish because of the narration

The book has promise. It has interesting characters with interesting backstories. Since I only managed to listen to 5 chapters due to the narrator, I can't really comment on the plot or world building.
The story is a first person narration. The narrator begins the story sounding like the heroine has a major depressive disorder. since the character has a few things that have gone awry in her life, this interpretation works. i didn't like it much, but I got used to it. Slowly, the narration slipped ftom depressing to glib. At this point the main character, an Afghan vet vampire, sounds like a disgruntled teen. By chapter 4 the narrator slips into a sing songy rhythm, perfect for falling asleep.
