Publisher's summary

A vampire escapes the thrall of Dracula and embarks on her own search for self-discovery and true love in this epic and seductive gothic fantasy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hide.

“Fiercely empowering and gloriously vengeful.”—Heather Walter, award-winning author of Malice

Her name was written in the pages of someone else’s story: Lucy Westenra was one of Dracula’s first victims.

But her death was only the beginning. Lucy rose from the grave a vampire and has spent her immortal life trying to escape from Dracula’s clutches—and trying to discover who she really is and what she truly wants.

Her undead life takes an unexpected turn in twenty-first-century London, when she meets another woman, Iris, who is also yearning to break free from her past. Iris’s family has built a health empire based on a sinister secret, and they’ll do anything to stay in power.

Lucy has long believed she would never love again. Yet she finds herself compelled by the charming Iris while Iris is equally mesmerized by the confident and glamorous Lucy. But their intense connection and blossoming love is threatened by outside forces. Iris’s mother won’t let go of her without a fight, and Lucy’s past still has fangs: Dracula is on the prowl once more.

Lucy Westenra has been a tragically murdered teen, a lonesome adventurer, and a fearsome hunter, but happiness has always eluded her. Can she find the strength to destroy Dracula once and for all, or will her heart once again be her undoing?

It's just amazing and will leave you feeling satisfied

The three pronged story is really good to keep everything interesting while giving a lot of information, without being boring and too expository. I love vampires and this story was just perfect. it's my first introduction to the author's books and I can't wait to read more!!

Would be good if the novel Dracula didn't exist

This book would be good if Bram Stoker's Dracula didn't exist. I get that the author didn't like parts of Stoker's book but to demonize every character in Stoker's novel just to push this narrative is absolutely absurd. This author basically made all of the protagonists in Stoker's novel sound like pompous jerks, while making Lucy this righteous character all because the author wanted her to "have a girlfriend". She also made it sound like most the heterosexuals in this book and basically all of the protagonists in Stoker's novel, can't be trusted. That the only people to be trusted are in the LGBTQ community. (Side Note: I 100% support the LGBTQ community. One of my best and good friends is a lesbian who read/listened to this book along with me and she even found this book off-putting. And my son, who is a gay man, found the treatment of the characters in Stoker's novel of this author repugnant).

I will say that the performance by the narrators were good. And, like what I said before, this book would be good if Bram Stoker's Dracula didn't exist. It's even absurd to call this "A Dracula Novel" when all you're going to do is defecate on almost all of his characters just to enshrine one. Not worth the credit.
