Rio Donnelle is a top music producer with a great partner and what seems to be an exceptional future, until he is diagnosed with Chronic Myloid Leukemia and a chain of events is set off that transforms him into a vampire.
When Rio is hired as an assistant at Mountain Sounds recording studio it is his dream come true, but his joy is soon marred by the death of his only living relative, his grandmother. He throws himself into learning all there is to know about the industry and before long he is one of top producers in North America. His life is further enhanced when he meets and falls in love with a handsome video producer named Shawn Peterson and just when he thinks things couldn't get better disaster strikes in the form of leukemia. When Rio decides to pursue the only cure for his condition, Bone Marrow transplant, he is targeted by an unscrupulous scientist who has been secretly administering an experimental compound on transplant patients. Unknown to Rio he has a secret guardian in the form of a mysterious woman vampire and she replaces the tainted donor bone marrow sample with marrow of her own. The next afternoon with the hot sun beaming through his hospital window Rio undergoes a transformation that nearly destroys him.
He is then left to discover what has happened to him and the nature of what he has become with no knowledge of who created him or why.

Autorenporträt

I was born in Williams Lake, British Columbia, Canada, in May of 1971 and raised by my father's parents from the time I was 2 years old. I had a very difficult childhood; developing a rare form of glandular cancer at the age of six, the majority of my early years were spent back and forth to the Hospital in Vancouver to receive treatment. My initial prognosis was two years with treatment, but I overcame the odds and went into remission at 10 years old. Being a sick kid precluded me from getting involved in sports, as I didn't have the stamina to keep up and was prone to injury, so by the time I went into remission I hadn't developed the skills to go out for organized sports like hockey. I was drawn to academics and the arts and fell in love with music and drama. I play five instruments and have sung lead in my own bands over the years, as well as performing in many musical theatre productions.
My last year of high-school, I started working as a radio dj at the local country station and that lead to a job at as afternoon drive announcer at a station in Courtenay on Vancouver Island after graduation. I spent two years there before finally emerging from that faceless little world of playing other people's music to standing front and center with a microphone singing my own. I eventually moved to Nanaimo, BC, started a band and began performing up and down Vancouver Island in the local night clubs. Everything seemed to be going very well, we were booked solid, had a strong following, were writing our own music, and looking to take the next step to the recording studio, and then the rug was pulled out from under me. Twenty years after my initial cancer diagnosis I was diagnosed with Chronic Myloid Leukemia, potentially caused by my exposure to radiation from my childhood treatment. At the time, the only sure cure for the disease was bone marrow transplant, and having no full siblings, I have two half brothers from my father and a half sister from my mother, my only option was for an unrelated marrow transplant from the donor list which carries a 50/50 chance of success.
My life spiralled out of control for a little while and I lost my way for a bit. Then I met my future partner of 15 years and we moved to the east coast together to Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada. In May, 1999 I entered the Victoria General Hospital in Halifax Nova Scotia and started my transplant procedure. I received my donor marrow on May 14, five days before my 28th birth...
