Publisher's summary

On the night of the blood moon, the Vampire Lord must die.

Floriane's position as the forge maiden of Hunter's Hamlet is one of reverence, for it is her skill that arms and protects the vampire hunters. She knows her place and is a faithful servant to the Master Hunter and her community...until the night of the blood moon. Until her brother is dying at the hands of the Vampire Lord Ruvan.

Wanting to defend her home at all costs, Floriane fights the vampire lord, ready to give her life if it means taking his. But Ruvan doesn't want to take her life...he wants her.

Kidnapped and brought to the vampire castle, Floriane is now blood sworn to the vampire lord. She is bound in mind and body to her worst enemy. But Ruvan isn’t the fiend she thought he was. She learns the truth of the vampires: They are not mindless monsters, but a proud people, twisted and tortured by an ancient curse.

Ruvan believes that Floriane might be the key to ending his people's suffering. All Floriane wants is to defend her home. Loyalties are tested and the line between truth and lie is blurred.

When her dagger is at his chest, will she be able to take the heart of the man who has claimed hers?

A darkly reimagined Snow White meets inspiration from Beauty and the Beast in an epic fantasy world of hunters, vampires, and curses that run deeper than blood. This stand-alone is complete with a "happily ever after" ending. It's perfect for fantasy romance fans looking for just the right amount of steam and their next slow-burn and swoon-worthy, enemies-to-lovers story.

While it is set in the Married to Magic universe, listeners can start with this book.

An interesting twist to vampires!

Elizabeth Evans is one of my favorite narrators and I purchased these books solely because of her but also enjoy having a story I can conclude in one book. While I think there is a lot more that could be explored in these stories that they can almost seem anticlimactic I still have enjoyed them & would recommend the Married to Magic universe to others!

Wonderful Easy Read

The push and pull of how you are raised vs what is the truth you see now. This was a good book to read. So much so I wanted the hardback on my shelf.

Ok I loved

Probably one of my favorite female inner monologues. Strong willed, self aware and so much growth.

Slow start for me.

I understand growing up with one belief but characters that are not open to the possibility of anything else (being lied to all their life) always bothers me. Granted it's not Floriane's fault but it's hard to ignore facts right in front of you. Lord Ruvan was extremely patient. Despite having limited time.

Other than that 👆🏾 complication, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Such an unexpected twist on Vampires, or the Vampir!

I LOVED THIS!!!
Kova never disappoints. I was so excited to finally read this new story in the Married to Magic world!! First there was the Elves, then the Fae, now the Vampires and next will be the Sirens! I don’t want the stories in this world to end!

Ruvan, the Vampire Lord, and Floriane have such a slow-burning, but beautiful relationship. Ruvan is so gentle and kind. Floriane really lucked out by being blood sworn to him. Although it doesn’t appear so at first.

This was adventurous, with plenty of twists and turns, it had FANTASTIC world building, and well rounded characters! The plot had me on the edge of my seat, wondering what was going to happen!

All-in-all, this was a BRILLIANT Fantasy Romance story!! It will look so nice on my bookshelf with the first two books in this world!

The narration was done very well, her voice changed perfectly from character to character, making the story come alive!!

Wonderfully worded.

The story line was great! Kept me wanting more. The twist and the plot which I did not see coming. The reader did a fantastic job. I would definitely read more from this author. And listen more material from the reader. She gave perfect expressions and made each character unique.

Very enjoyable

I found this book to be intriguing, well written, and fun to listen too. While I love romance book I often get bored halfway and leave it. This one kept my attention and kept me engaged. Well worth it!
