Think moody, atmospheric, and "I should probably run away, but he’s really hot."
I was immediately hooked by Shea, a heroine who is literally losing her connection to the world as her hearing aid batteries run low. The desperation is real. Enter Oliver Lysander, the volatile vampire leader who is basically the personification of tall, dark, and dangerous.
The tension in their blood-for-batteries deal? Electric! Watching Shea navigate her brother’s return and the terrifying secrets of the Gravewood kept me on the edge of my seat. It’s dark, it’s gothic, and it’s perfect for anyone who loves a monster with a soft spot trope.
