Afterglow

Monsters of Moonvale, Book 2

De: Emily Antoinette

Narrado por: Kingsley Rose, Simone Rothschild

A woman rediscovering herself…

After my husband left, all I wanted was to find myself again. Turns out that's a lot easier said than done when my chronic pain has me canceling plans and everything I try reminds me of my inadequacies.

Things only get worse when my attempt at exploring submission is a total disaster. But hope comes in the form of my stoic, stunning vampire friend, Blair. She offers to teach me, giving me a space to safely explore a side of myself I've kept locked away.

It's meant to be platonic. Just one friend helping another. So then why can't I stop imagining what it would be like to take things further?

A vampire losing control…

I've spent the past ten years building a life where I'm in control. I swore I'd never go back to being the pathetic, emotional girl I was before I was turned.

Then Grace showed up.

I knew from the moment we met she'd be a problem. My monster craves her in a way that terrifies me, and her humor and beauty pierce through the cracks in my carefully crafted, cold facade. Yet keeping my distance would ruin one of the few friendships I have.

How do I shore up the crumbling barriers around my heart before I end up more broken and alone than I was the night I became a vampire?

Afterglow is a spicy, slow-burn, sapphic romance featuring a jaded, lonely vampire FMC and a bubbly, anxious human FMC. It is book two in the Monsters of Moonvale series but can be enjoyed as a standalone.

Blair & Grace <3

I’ve been patiently awaiting this book ever since meeting Blair & Grace in Behold Her!! And it didn’t disappoint! (Even if I did cry more times than I can count 🥹)

I don’t think I’ve ever read a book with more accurate ADHD representation in women, especially when it comes to issues with romantic and sexual intimacy. I’m pretty sure Grace is just me — it was so on point.
