Of Blood & Roses eBook
An Enemies-to-Lovers Vampire Romance with a Darkly Swoonworthy Emperor and Forced Marriage
Perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses, Of Blood & Roses is a spicy standalone fantasy romance inspired by Hades and Persephone and Beauty and the Beast, featuring a vampire emperor, forced marriage, and an enemies-to-lovers love story with a guaranteed HEA.
Every hundred years, the vampire Emperor Amias de Marc opens the gates of his Eternal Palace to select a human bride.
The tradition, known as The Picking, requires unmarried maidens turning twenty in winter to attend. The chosen one becomes his betrothed — refusal means death.
Lamia Fontaine has other plans. Hell-bent on revenge for her brother, she’s determined to assassinate the vampire emperor. Lucky for her, she has an invitation to The Picking. Now she must navigate the dark magic, political intrigue, and brooding emperor to get close enough to strike — and survive.
Sparks fly, secrets unravel, and enemies may not stay enemies for long…
