Sink your teeth into the newest vampire novel 🖤🩸📚

What is this synopsis from? My upcoming debut novel, These Sanguine Rites, of course!

❣️

These Sanguine Rites follows the character Nym, who is stãlk3d and múrd3red on her way home from being a castle maid. When she wakes, she finds herself awakening as a fresh, uncontrollable vampire. She is then discovered by Heiron, a monster hunter, who rather than hunting her, offers her help in reclaiming herself. He takes her back to a sect of "good" vampires known as the Erzites, who tell her that they know who kïll3d her and offer her revenge, but only at the price of her life being bound to them.

These Sanguine Rites is a dark romantasy with horror elements involving fae vampires, an immense and immersive world, magic, found family, betrayal, complex characters, tastefully option spice 🔥, and representation including POC main characters, LGBTQ+ characters, and a main character that suffers from a chronic illness.

❣️

These Sanguine Rites will be published towards the start of next year, though a set date has yet to be confirmed. But when it is I will let you know so that you may mark your calendars.

❣️

I can't wait for you to sink your teeth into this one 🦷🩸

... Read moreI've been absolutely buzzing about a new dark romantasy that's hitting shelves early next year, and if your reading list is anything like mine – full of intense, gripping tales with a touch of the forbidden, perhaps even something that gives you those 'Filthy Kings' vibes – then you need to hear about 'These Sanguine Rites'! As a huge fan of stories where the lines between good and evil blur and the romance is as dark as it is delicious, this one has me completely hooked just from the synopsis. Imagine being murdered, only to wake up as a creature of the night, driven by an insatiable craving for blood. That's Nym's journey, and honestly, what a way to kick off a story! The initial description of her transformation, going from a victim to a powerful, savage vampire, really highlights the raw, visceral horror elements promised. It's not just about pretty vampires; it's about the struggle, the loss of self, and the terrifying power that comes with it. The idea of her literally draining life, then encountering Heiron, a hunter trained to destroy her kind, sets up such an incredible tension. You instantly wonder if their connection will be a perilous dance between prey and predator, a truly forbidden embrace. What excites me most is the promise of revenge. Nym's initial journey through darkness isn't just about survival; it's about reclaiming what was taken from her. The Erzites, this sect of "good" vampires, offering her a path to vengeance but at the cost of her freedom? That's the kind of morally complex dilemma I crave in my reads. It adds so many layers to her character arc – will she embrace the monster she's becoming to get justice, or will she find a way to navigate a world of blood and corruption on her own terms? The themes of betrayal and found family are going to be so powerful here. Beyond the thrilling plot, 'These Sanguine Rites' sounds like it's building an incredibly immersive world with fae vampires and magic. As someone who appreciates rich lore, I'm eager to see how these elements intertwine with the dark romantasy aspects. And let's not forget the "tastefully optioned spice 🔥"! For those of us who enjoy our romance with a healthy dose of intensity and passion, knowing it's there adds another layer of anticipation. The representation is also a huge plus. With POC and LGBTQ+ main characters, plus a protagonist dealing with a chronic illness, this book is clearly aiming to be inclusive and reflective, which is something I always look for. It's refreshing to see such diverse characters leading a dark fantasy narrative, making the story feel even more grounded and relatable despite its supernatural elements. If you're on the hunt for your next deeply immersive, thrilling, and emotionally charged read – especially if you're a fan of the darker side of romance with high stakes and complex characters – then mark 'These Sanguine Rites' down. It genuinely feels like it's going to deliver that intense, page-turning experience we all chase after. I'm counting down the days until I can finally get my hands on it and dive into Nym's journey of vengeance and self-discovery!
