Black Rose

The Dracula Duet, Book 2

De: Karina Halle

Narrado por: Carolyn Eve, Arthur Russell

From the New York Times bestselling author of River of Shadows and Black Sunshine comes a new dark gothic romance duet about how love can transcend the ages, but at a deadly cost.

Is it her destiny to love him?

Or is it her destiny to die?

Valtu Aminoff is no stranger to tragedy. Though many know him as the enigmatic vampire that inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula, Valtu's complex life is far more horrific than any fiction could imagine. When you lose the love of your life over and over again, it can do more than break your heart—it can corrupt your soul.

It's up to his new lover to decide if Valtu's damaged soul is even worth saving.

But destiny isn't done with Valtu yet. And tragedy is always around the corner.

Contains mature themes.

wonderful!!

Wonderful narration, plot and SPICE!! This duet was such a great read. I loved it!

Solid, but fell short for me

I loved the first book and think this is a beautiful retelling of Dracula. That being said, this fell a bit short for me. I felt like it was all spice, and no substance, which isn’t really my thing. I won’t lie, I found myself skipping through almost whole chapters because I was getting a bit bored with the endless spice. I felt like this book lacked that deep, emotional connection between Rose and Valtu. I loved the tenderness between them in Blood Orange, but it was mostly absent in this book. Some positives: I enjoyed the subtle humor that is peppered through this book, and the two narrators did a wonderful job and gave Rose and Valtu so much life and depth. Overall, I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Dracula: a love tale!

dark romance is not my shit

full of violent ,blood and dirty dirty sex scence that somehow too dirty for my taste,it make me dizzy and nauseous. I think I should go back to my small town romance lol nothing wrong with the book tho it's amazing but it's just not suit me.

Great conclusion!

This was such a great conclusion to the story! im sad its over haha. Rose and Val finally get their ending

God-tier vampire love story

I literally devoured these books. I knew I would love this book and Blood Orange from just the preview alone. I’m a huge Bram Stoker’s Dracula fan, and the narrator for Valtu is perfect. I laughed, cried, and the spice was exceptional. It was perfect and I can’t wait to read it again.
