Any relationship takes work, but that especially applies when an ordinary guy from America's Pacific Northwest is romantically involved with a beautiful former English noblewoman who was turned into a vampire in the 17th century.

Tabitha loves him dearly, even when he can't resist the temptation to tweak her nose while he says "Beep."
