    About this audiobook

    Beneath the glitter of dazzling nineteenth century London Society lurks a bloodthirsty evil . . .

    Just as Lady Victoria Gardella is preparing for her debut into London Society, she learns the shocking and impossible truth about her family legacy: she is one of the very few who has the power-and responsibility-to hunt and slay the evil vampires that infest the city.

    With infinite questions (where will she hide her stake? how will she know a vampire when she encounters one? how will she sneak out at night?), Victoria agrees to shoulder the responsibility and carry the stake-despite the societal restrictions and expectations of her as a female.

    But as she moves between the crush of ballrooms and dangerous moonlit streets, juggling the expectations of her mother and the requirements of her obligations, Victoria's heart is torn between London's most eligible bachelor, the Marquess of Rockley, and her dark, dangerous duty.

    And when she comes face-to-face with the most powerful vampire in history, Victoria must ultimately make a choice between duty and love.

      This is my favorite kind of book, Historical Romance but with a Supernatural element. If you're a fan of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and Bridgerton this is the book for you. Not long after Victoria is introduced to society she finds out she descended from a long line of Vampire Hunters and is destined to be the strongest hunter in generations. Victoria struggles to balance high society and marriage proposals while preventing the rise of Lilith, the strongest and most evil vampire in existence.
