Book Summary From NetGalley

I will disguise myself as the vampire’s bride.

I will win over his family.

And then I will murder every last one of them.

All my life I’ve been training to take revenge on the vampire who killed my parents. But Raziel Nostrom is a prince of the city’s most powerful mafia clan—completely untouchable.

When I learn that Raziel is marrying a woman he’s never seen before, I know my chance has finally come…

I will disguise myself as Raziel’s sacrificial bride. I will gain access to his vicious and beautiful family. And I will murder every last bloodsucking one of them.

Raziel is just as ruthless and deadly as I expected, but I had no idea how magnetic he would be up close, with an intoxicating smile and ruby-red eyes that seem to look right into my soul. There’s a dangerous tension between us that I’m struggling to ignore.

I have to strike fast. Every second I wait brings new danger to my life—and my heart. But as I sharpen my blades and prepare to take my revenge at last, I need to face the truth…

I’m falling in love with Raziel Nostrom.

The first book in a spicy vampire romantasy series perfect for fans of true enemies-to-lovers romance and marriages of convenience tropes. Readers who could not get enough of The Serpent and the Wings of Night and Haunting Adeline will love The Serpent’s Bride.

My Thoughts on The Serpent’s Bride

I devoured this audiobook in 1 sitting. It was phenomenal. Immediately after listening to it I ran to order my physical copy.

This book was so easy to get addicted to. It was all action from the get go. It’s actually a pretty short book/audiobook, and honestly I wish there was 10 more hours of it! I was not ready for it to be over. I need more of Raziel.

I loved the plot to smut ratio and our badass FMC and our devilish and hard to love MMC. She hates him but she wants him 🙈 The entire story building up until it’s time for her to make her move and then we’re all blindsided with the plot twist at the end 😳

I did not see that ending coming……..

This book is sort of dark, but in a tempting way. The one scene on the yacht (spicyyyyyyyyy). Hoping we get many more of those scenes in book 2 & 3!!
