From the New York Times & USA Today bestselling author of Black Sunshine and River of Shadows comes a new dark vampire romance about the vampire known as Dracula. Once there was a man who fell deeply in love with a woman he could never have. When their affair was uncovered she was brutally murdered in front of him, and he discovered he was cursed, doomed to live forever as a vampire. Over the centuries, he found his love again, and lost her again, until he was so broken he gave up on love entirely, sinking into the depths of depravity, losing his humanity. Then one day, she came back into his life. A student of music studying under him at the conservatory in Venice, Italy where he was a professor. But even though he found her beautiful and intriguing, he didn't recognize his fated mate at all. Because this time she had to hide her true self. This time she came back as a witch, whose destiny wasn't to love him...but to kill him. Blood Orange is a modern-day Dracula retelling about the "real-life" Dracula that inspired Bram Stoker. This is a dark vampire romance with plenty of content warnings (please check interior of book) and while it is a spinoff of The Dark Eyes Duet, it can be read as a standalone.

A really cool book about the inspiration for Dracula. Valtu is a centuries old vampire when he meets Dahlia, who just may be the reincarnation of his lost love. This book is very spicy and I was rooting for the two of them to get together. The story alternates between Valtu's and Dahlia's points of view. With a few flashbacks to Valtu‘s lost loves. This was a great read.

zezeki Hope you don't mind me being curious, what app did you use to make that bingo board? 😅 3mo
CloakNQuill @zezeki Ive gotten this question before. No worries! I don‘t use an app. I use Pixlr which is similar to photoshop. All the images I include are license free on Unsplash. The bingo board itself are pngs. 3mo
zezeki @CloakNQuill thanks! 3mo

Mehso-so

The writing was okay and the story was entertaining.
Though I missed the romance part beyond the smut.
