But even while I kiss him, a spark of common sense returns. The contradictions make the heat inside me boil. What am I doing?, I ask myself in the farthest corner of my mind. This is the Vampire Lord! Blacksmith Floriane is respected by all. She forges the weapons with which the vampire hunters protect their village from attacks. However, when Floriane's brother is mortally wounded by the leader of the vampires, she takes up the sword herself, ready to sacrifice her life. But Vampire Lord Ruvan does not want her death... he wants her. He kidnaps Floriane to his castle to bind her to him with a blood oath - in body and spirit. Only then can he prove that vampires are not monsters, but a cursed people. However, to break the curse, Floriane would have to betray her origins... An excitingly thrilling slow-burn fantasy about a young woman who is willing to pay a dangerous blood price for her freedom - and for her love. Elegantly refined with motif-colored edges in the first edition, available only while supplies last! Duel with the Vampire Lord is the third volume of the stand-alone series Married into Magic. Each book focuses on a different couple, allowing the books of this magical fantasy series to be read independently of one another.
