But bonds forged by blood can only be broken by death. 'A Dowry of Blood is an intoxicating perfume that lingers - an undying love story where beauty and horror clasp hands.' Rachel Gillig, author of One Dark Window Seductive, lyrical, and rich with period detail, this daring retelling casts the Harkers story aside to follow Draculas medieval bride and her tangled romance with his consorts. With the lives of everyone she loves on the line, Constanta will have to choose between her own freedom and her love for her husband. Finding comfort in the arms of her rival consorts, she begins to unravel their husband's dark secrets. But when Dracula draws a cunning aristocrat and a starving artist into his web of passion and deceit, Constanta realizes that her beloved is capable of terrible things.
Saved from the brink of death by a mysterious stranger, Constanta is transformed from a medieval peasant into a bride fit for an undying king.
A lyrical and dreamy reimagining of Dracula's brides, A Dowry of Blood is a story of desire, obsession, and emancipation.
