Very broody and atmospheric and although a little thin in both plot and length it's a dark vampire fantasy that held my attention.

This book knocked me on my ass from the first time I read it and still astounded me with its beauty every subsequent re-read.
The prose is atmospheric and absolutely gorgeous. The story of Dracula being told as a story of love, abuse, betrayal, and freedom from the POV of his brides? A completely fresh take that took my breath away.
S.T. Gibson writes a gripping and evocative tale full of heart, heartache, and heartbreak. It’s the story of survival and I feel like a lot of people can resonate with that.
It’s a forever favorite for me and I’m so glad I have an original copy before the reprint! It’s worth more than gold to me!

If you're looking for a book to pull out of slump this will do it. Audiobook is great too.
hella gay
really lived the atmosphere and was kinda shocked the way dracula’s ass would have made me a victim too bc why is his name never said yet i was charmed… really says something about the writing that it achieved that in so few pages

This was a book that I was not expecting which just blew me away. I knew nothing about it other than that it was getting rave reviews, and that it was to do with the brides of Dracula. The story follows a young and religious young girl, who after the slaughter of her village makes a deal with a beautiful man who saves her. She becomes his wife, and the book chronicles their lives over the centuries as she comes to the realisation of who this man is, and how he has slowly crushing her in his subtle manipulations and control. This book is dark and incredibly sexy, as the couple bring other people into their relationship.
This is an amazing portrayal of emotional manipulation, and how a woman finds a way to break the bonds that are smothering her into a future of independence. I also adored the relationships between the other characters in the book, and seeing how they all suffered under tyranny, and worked together to escape it. This book is incredibly short and can be read in a single sitting, but I would highly recommend it.
