Maura-Ann Cairns: Vampire, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Princess Elora has spent the past two years mourning the tragic death of her husband, his life stolen by a savage vampire attack. Now, under the relentless pressure of her mother, the queen, Elora is forced to attend a grand royal ball. The directive is clear: find a suitable husband and secure her place as the future queen by ascending the throne.

But fate has other plans. Amid the swirling gowns and glittering chandeliers, Elora encounters Lucian-a mysterious stranger whose presence commands attention and whose eyes seem to hold centuries of secrets. What Elora doesn't know is that Lucian is no ordinary man; he's a vampire, a hundred years old, and his arrival at the ball will set into motion a chain of events that will challenge everything she thought she knew about love, loyalty, and power.

As sparks fly and old wounds resurface, Elora must navigate the dangerous undercurrents of court intrigue, her own heart's desires, and the haunting truth of Lucian's immortal nature. Is Lucian connected to her husband's death? Can she defy the expectations placed upon her and chart her own destiny? Or will she lose her heart-and her throne-along the way?

"Vampire" is a spellbinding tale of love, betrayal, and the courage to embrace the unknown, perfect for fans of gothic romance and dark fantasy.
