I will disguise myself as the vampire’s bride.

I will win over his family.

And then I will murder every last one of them.

All my life I’ve been training to take revenge on the vampire who killed my parents. But Raziel Nostrom is a prince of the city’s most powerful mafia clan—completely untouchable.

When I learn that Raziel is marrying a woman he’s never seen before, I know my chance has finally come…

I will disguise myself as Raziel’s sacrificial bride. I will gain access to his vicious and beautiful family. And I will murder every last bloodsucking one of them.

Raziel is just as ruthless and deadly as I expected, but I had no idea how magnetic he would be up close, with an intoxicating smile and ruby-red eyes that seem to look right into my soul. There’s a dangerous tension between us that I’m struggling to ignore.

I have to strike fast. Every second I wait brings new danger to my life—and my heart. But as I sharpen my blades and prepare to take my revenge at last, I need to face the truth…

I’m falling in love with Raziel Nostrom.

The first book in a spicy vampire romantasy series perfect for fans of true enemies-to-lovers romance and marriages of convenience tropes. Readers who could not get enough of The Serpent and the Wings of Night and Haunting Adeline will love The Serpent’s Bride.

MY REVIEW:

The Serpent's Bride by Kathryn Ann Kingsley
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book from the start.
Nadi is going to pose as the bride of Raziel, since he never saw her it was easy. Him and his family need to die for killing her family years ago. But he also has to kill his bride after they are married as it is part of a sacrifice. These 2 spending time that they had together was a spicy sometimes and sometimes had me laughing.. I did have a feeling how the book was going to end.
Thank you to NetGalley and Second Sky for the copy to review.

Book Review: The Vangel by Tatenda Creed

Supernatural collides with Mortal instruments and Vampire Diaries.

Who is the Vangel?

Determined to protect Darcie by finding the Vangel, Alexandra agrees to enforce a dangerous plan which could result in the death of one of her closest friends. As she puts her hidden plans into action, she soon finds that her heart has a mind of its own. Could she be in love with the wrong man? It´s not long before she holds the identity of the Vangel in her hands, and with that knowledge, she realizes she´s not the only one with secrets. Getting rid of the Vangel is the least of her worries.

The Vangel is Book 3 of a seven-book series. Although this book's story is complete, it is not a standalone novel.  However, you won’t have to wait months or years to read the next book in the series. Each installment is released every month or two. Begin with the Prequel, Lost Angels if you haven’t read it already.

The Vangel: A Supernatural & Paranormal Romance Novel by Tatenda Creed

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This has a little of everything. Supernatural, vampires and romance. Even though Alexandra is young I still have a hard time thinking she can't make up her mind about who she really wants to be with. But I also know she is fighting for answers on who the Vangel is and not knowing if it is any of the men she really cares for.
Things are hot between Alexandra and Zachary but she still cares for Chan. For some reason I am team Chan. Just something about Zachary that does not have me rooting for him lol. It might be that I think he will end up being like his father. Then we find out more secrets as the book goes on and as always liking Zachary's mom. Alexandra's father gives her a job to do and she needs to get something from Zachary's house. Not sure if she can pull this off you need to read this book.
I received this ARC for review.
