THE DARK FANTASY BOOKTOK BLOCKBUSTER!

In this dark, fantasy sensation, S. T. Gibson spins the gothic, seductive tale of Dracula's first bride, Constanta.

This is my last love letter to you, though some would call it a confession. . .

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. 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.

Finding comfort in the arms of her rival consorts, she begins to unravel their husband's dark secrets. 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. But bonds forged by blood can only be broken by death.

"A dizzying nightmare of a romance that will leave you aching, angry and ultimately hopeful." --Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the Wolf

This is the book I never knew I needed! I loved reading Dracula’s wife’s perspective and the vibes in this book is everything! I am already excited to reread it!

poetically written but the book in general didn’t do much for me. i really enjoyed the storyline and felt like it could’ve been great if it was written differently. still would read if you’re curious about it though!

I had really high hopes for this book but it kind of fell a bit flat for me. I liked the dark vibes and the characters however the actual story didn’t do much

3.5 stars - First of all, this was a beautifully written novel, balancing perfectly between the old fashioned language of Stoker and its own modern voice. Giving life to the wife and lovers of the infamous vampire lord - outside of the events of Dracula - brought an interesting and, I think, refreshing take to the bloody tale.
