did you think I was done talking about this book? because I am definitely 400% unequivocally never going to be done because this book RUINED MY LIFE and by that I mean it TORE MY SOUL TO SHREDS and by that I mean it GAVE ME A REASON TO LIVE and BREATHE and TRY. (wow that was dramatic)

anyways here are some of my most favorite quotes from the book, in an attempt to maybe convince you to read it as soon as possible 🫡

Today it’s Karina Halle’s birthday and she’s making it an ✨extra special occasion✨ by giving us the cover to BLACK ROSE! Isn’t it gorgeous!?

*Every vampire has a sad love story to tell*

Black Rose is a dark and extra spicy gothic vampire romance that’s a modern retelling of Dracula and the sequel to Blood Orange - one of my top reads in November. This duet is lush, emotional, spooky, sexy, twisted, kinky and compelling, and with Black Rose releasing on December 29th, now is the perfect time to pick up Blood Orange on kindle, KU or paperback and get immersed into Valtu and Dahlia’s epic love story.

Set in Venice, Italy, against a spooky and moody autumn atmosphere, with dark academia vibes, reincarnated love, witches, demons, music (talk about cello play) and a mind-blowing twist, Blood Orange will take you on a ride you won’t forget.

Black Rose is book 2 in the Dracula Duet and completes it. Though it is related to her other vampire books, you DO NOT need to read any other books before Blood Orange/Black Rose.

✨COVER REVEAL✨

I am absolutely thrilled to help share the GORGEOUS cover for City of Darkness, the HIGHLY anticipated third book in Karina Halle’s Underworld Gods series, designed by Hang Le. Seriously…I dream about this book and when I’ll finally get to hold it.

This is a dark fantasy adult romance that’s heavy on the spice and based on the most delightfully spooky Finnish mythology, inspired by Beauty and the Beast and Labyrinth, with Hades and Persephone vibes.

Karina writes worlds I want to sink into forever and never leave. She writes complex, dark, delicious characters I wish were real because I would DEFINITELY be best friends with them. The Underworld Gods series took over my heart and this is an absolute MUST READ if you’re into anything I’ve mentioned above. And then we can talk about Black Sunshine because once you start Karina Halle, you just cannot stop.

City of Darkness releases January 30th 2023, which gives you plenty of time to start with book one (River of Shadows☠️) and book two (Crown of Crimson 🥵).

AVAILABLE IN KU✨
