A Duel with the Vampire Lord (3) (Married to Magic)

Product Information

A darkly reimagined Snow White meets inspiration from Beauty and the Beast in an epic fantasy world of hunters, vampires, and curses that run deeper than blood. This stand-alone is complete with a "happily ever after" ending. It's perfect for fantasy romance fans looking for just the right amount of steam and their next slow-burn and swoon-worthy, enemies-to-lovers story. You might be torture and temptation incarnate. But you are strength and power. You are damnation and salvation trapped in curves that should be forbidden."

I might be the forge maiden, but I am no delicate flower. I am as cold as silver. As strong as iron. I will bend for destiny, but not for any man." Their romance becomes a sort of Romeo and Juliet retelling. Where they fall hopelessly in love with each other, but humans still hate vampires and vampires still hate humans. Even Ruvan’s own friends only put up with Floriane because of the oath between them.

The romance is a slow burn. There was a point when I felt it dragged a bit too much. They did have their moments, sexy and dark moments in between but I got impatient around 78% mark cause they still didn't resolve their issues. Then came the ending around 85% and IT WAS SO WORTH IT 🤌🤌 The spice was good. But I was expecting more. I wanted more 😭 C'mon the whole tone of the book is dark and there's a sexy vampir, why won't I expect lots of smut 🥲 I said you were perfect," he says firmly. "The sorrow of other men will be my blessing and delight." Book Genre: Adult, Fantasy, Fantasy Romance, New Adult, Paranormal, Paranormal Romance, Retellings, Romance, Vampires, Young Adult Step into a world of hunters, vampires, and curses that run deeper than blood. This stand-alone is a must for fantasy vampire Everyone in Hunter’s Hamlet has one foot in the grave and one hand on a silver weapon. We don’t go down without a fight. We are the only thing standing between our world and the vampires that would consume it.

Wanting to defend her home at all costs, Floriane fights the vampire lord, ready to give her life if it means taking his. But Ruvan doesn't want to take her life...he wants her. In the other books, you’ll remember that the Vampires are a mysterious race that keep to themselves that no one has heard from in thousands of years. They are weakened, and don’t have a part in the magical Court of Kings.I know these Married to Magic books are only mildly interconnected, but a part of me kind of wants everything to meet up and culminate in something at the end. Like, every offhand mention of the Fae or the Elves has me keyed up. But more than that, you just end up falling in love with the characters and you want more. I definitely want more after this book. So I need them to all meet up so I can see familiar faces again. Ruvan doesn't want to take her life... he wants her. Now blood sworn to the vampire lord, she is bound in mind and body to her This world is dark and the night is unyielding; the least we can do is fill it with sweet, forbidden dreams”. No es un secreto que últimamente no me siento tan cómoda con la fantasía como antes, pero Elise Kova ha vuelto a conseguir tenerme enganchada a un libro de este tipo, ya no solo porque la trama romántica es muy prevalente, sino porque sus personajes te atrapan (aunque me habría encantado tener algún capítulo narrado desde la perspectiva de Ruvan) y en esta ocasión también lo hace el misterio.

On the night of the blood moon, Floriane, to protect her brother, faces off with the Vampire Lord. Instead of killing her, he kidnaps her to his kingdom to see if she can help break the curse on the vampires. Her brother has been training her to fight in secret, so when she kills a vampire that’s entered her home, she takes a magical potion to give her strength. This potion always raised her awareness, and she senses her brother is in trouble. En cuanto a esta entrega, debo admitir que la portada no me entusiasmaba para nada, incluso me daba la risa verla porque cambia bastante en comparación con las dos primeras. Además, el interés amoroso me parecía un vampiro octogenario, no sé, me lo esperaba de otra manera. Lo siento, igual se debe a que he leído demasiados libros de vampiros tipo crepúsculo y me lo esperaba más “jóven” físicamente. Sin embargo, una vez empecé a leerlo, la historia me atrapó en las primeras páginas.Si hay algo que me encanta de esta autora es que crea historias bastante entretenidas y que acaban enganchando y me parecen bastante originales. Además, que siento que en cada libro va puliendo poco a poco su manera de escribir y eso es algo a tener en cuenta sí o también. Ruvan believes that Floriane might be the key to ending his people's suffering. All Floriane wants is to defend her home. Loyalties are tested and the lines between truth and lie, hate and passion, are blurred.
