Description

Sink your teeth into a deliciously gothic enemies-to-lovers vampire romance, set in the world of the New York Times bestselling series Serpent & Dove!

Full of everything I love: a sparkling and fully-realized heroine, an intricate and deadly system of magic, and a searing romance that kept me reading long into the night. –
Sarah J Maas on Serpent & Dove

Celie’s life is over. She took her final breath trying to save the people she loves-including the powerful and enigmatic vampire king, Michal, who refused to let her go. When Celie wakes, she cannot walk in the sun; she can hear her friends’ heartbeats and she craves their blood. Michal has cursed her to the eternal existence of a vampire.

But Celie isn’t the only dead roaming the earth. Her sister, Filippa, has returned as a shadow of her former self, and other revenants are rising from their graves intent on revenge. The fragile balance between life and death has broken, awakening an even darker force-and he is coming for Celie, ready to claim her as his Bride. With the fate of their world at stake, Celie and Michal must set aside their searing attraction to mend the veil and right the balance, once and for all.

In the thrilling conclusion of the duology set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Serpent & Dove series by Shelby Mahurin, a vampire and the woman who tried to kill him prove that true love can conquer anything, even Death.
