The heroine, by contrast, is a pretty girl without a lot of substance. He also tries and fails to convince the heroine to stay away from him because he's dangerous, although in this case it's because he might be a demon instead of a vampire. The male love interest speaks in an archaic way and seems a bit too naive. I feel like ASHES ON THE WAVES is definitely influenced by TWILIGHT. I think we all remember the "girls in prom dresses" period of YA fiction. Remember when TWILIGHT was at the height of its popularity, and people began opening up Wikipedia to search for paranormal creatures to have fall in love with some ditzy teenage girl so they could write the Next Big YA Paranormal Romance, too? Yeah.
