Zeraphina, content to spend her days with her loyal pets (an eagle and a cat) and practice her archery, is seemingly uninterested in the matters of the kingdom. The country is still starving and the Queen needs to do something quickly so she arranges another wealthy groom to wed her eldest daughter and help pull her kingdom out of its financial turmoil. Broken hearted and in mourning, Lilith doesn’t want to marry anyone if she can’t have her true love. Only tragedy strikes when the prince is killed in a hunting accident.Īnd that’s where this story really starts. Zeraphina’s sister, Lilith, is fine with the decision as she’s fallen in love with her wealthy groom-to-be. The only solution the Queen (Zeraphina’s mother) can find is to marry the heir to the throne off to a wealthy prince. Their winters are getting colder and their people are starving. Zeraphina’s homeland is freezing to death. I am surprised at how much I enjoyed this novel.

Zeraphina must be willing to sacrifice everything if she’s to uncover the truth – but what if the truth is beyond her worst nightmares?įrom the first few pages – and you see that Zeraphina has a craving for blood – it would have been easy to dismiss this for yet another vampire story. So when the king’s advisor, Rodden, seems to know more about her condition than she does, Zeraphina is determined to find out more. Craving blood is not considered normal behaviour for anyone, let alone a princess. When her sister becomes betrothed to a prince in a northern nation, Zeraphina’s only consolations are that her loyal animal companions are by her side – and that her burning hunger to travel north is finally being sated.Īlready her black hair and pale eyes mark her out as different, but now Zeraphina must be even more careful to keep her secret safe. I wanted to turn but I was held captive by the song on the wind. Genre: Paranormal, Fantasy, Vampires, Romance
