Consider How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire by Kerrelyn Sparks.
“Starts as a screwball romantic caper: Roman Draganesti loses a fang and has one night to find a dentist. Tone stays playful, with fast banter, physical-comedy setups, and recurring sexual sparks that drive most scenes. what works best is light, escapist entertainment and affectionate riffing on vampire tropes rather than realistic stakes or deep character work. Drawbacks include episodic middle chapters, repeated jokes, and a tendency for secondary characters to tilt into caricature. Best read when you want frothy, silly fun.”
