Beauty and the Vampire, Book 2

By Demelza Brown and Em Brown

Now she belongs to a Beast...

Montague thinks he has found a way around his curse by purchasing the indentured servant Daliyah to serve as his next meal and tumble. If his appetites should overwhelm her, it would be a pity, but, if need be, he would move on to his next victim.

But his brother, Addison, threatens to upend Montague’s plans when he falls in love with the gentle maid.

Devastated that she now belongs to the Earl of Blackbourne, Daliyah finds comfort in the company of the kindly Mr. Addison Brooke. But when she discovers the truth behind his lordship’s darkness, can she escape before she succumbs to his thirst for blood and his desire for flesh?

If you like dark gothic romances, sink your fangs into BEAUTY AND THE VAMPIRE, a twisted retelling of a timeless fairy tale. Note: this story may contain triggers and is best suited for readers 18 and over.
