"A perfect mix of MAGIC, VAMPIRES, STAR-CROSSED LOVE, and writing as SHARP AND DEADLY a spear." - Nisha J. Tuli, author of Trial of the Sun Queen
THE THRILLING ROMANTASY FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR LAUREN BLACKWOOD!
One vampire to kill. Another to love.
War doesn't scare Jerusalem. She's a Saint. Thanks to powerful demigod-style reflexes, endurance, and strength, she's fearless. And she has one goal - revenge.
But she never expects to team up with the handsome, arrogant Alexei to accomplish it. He's one of those Ancient Vampires. And ever since her family was enslaved and murdered by one, Jerusalem hates vampires.
But in the year they've been fighting alongside one another against the Confederate Army and the vampires who benefitted off slavery, Alexei's never done anything but prove he's on the Union's side and hers. She may know the enemy better, hate the enemy more than anyone in her battalion, but so does he. And she'll use that to her advantage. Because if she can get her revenge by helping Black people gain freedom and equality without having to steal it for themselves like she had to, then all the better.
Together, she and Alexei set out to change the course of the war, risking their hearts and themselves as they attempt to take down the vampire who destroyed everyone Jerusalem held dear. But for Jerusalem, it's about more than love and justice.
It's about killing a god.
