Perfect for you if...

  • You love enemies-to-lovers where the animosity feels genuine and the sexual tension crackles from page one.
  • You're after dark romance with actual worldbuilding: a collapsing society, vampire politics, real danger that matters.
  • You want spicy scenes that earn their place in the plot rather than interrupt it.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer romance where the central couple trusts each other from the start or bonds gradually through kindness.
  • You're squeamish about blood, gore, or explicitly sexual content woven throughout the narrative.
  • You need your heroines to be entirely in control of their circumstances rather than trapped or coerced.

About this book

A plague has devastated the world, leaving millions sick and dying. The narrator is immune and believes they are the only person well enough to stop the plague and save their people. However, Kingsnake, the King of Vampires, is searching for them. With his food source gone, he is dying and needs the narrator's blood to survive. He is determined to find, bind, and claim the narrator as his own. The story follows an enemies-to-lovers dynamic that evolves into unlikely alliance and frenemies-with-benefits territory, with explicit sexual content.
