Constanta always thought that her husband would only love her. Always and forever. But people who live forever don't typically only choose one person.
This book is a retelling of Dracula's Brides story. The characterization in this story is really amazing. All of the characters felt like real people with real problems. The way that this story was written was also super interesting with what the narrator reveals to us and what she does not. The characters travel to several different places but each place is lovingly detailed. Honestly, this book was just so good.
Check the trigger warnings first but definitely give this one a read.
