Vanilla Blood: A Novella by S.L. Baron One night changes everything… Livia Hart is a woman gutted by tragedy. Craving escape from her grief and guilt, she travels to Europe for the vacation she's dreamt about for years. In a London pub, she meets a handsome stranger, Lucian Llewellyn. Lucian promises her an unforgettable night of bliss…and more: the gift of immortality, to be reborn as a vampire. Livia embraces her new role as a powerful predator, hiding in plain sight and preying on the dregs of human society—rapists, murderers, abusers. She’s welcomed into a world where vampires refuse to mourn their existence. But secrets from Lucian’s past threaten Livia’s newfound happiness. Can she survive in her new life knowing the truth? Or will the revelations condemn her to an eternity of regret? New Adult • Romance/Fantasy • Fantasy/Romantic and Erotic • Diversity Representation/LGBTQ+ • Romance • Romance/Paranormal |
