Bound and Unbound: A paranormal novella duology
Ali Hazelwood
by Jennifer Peel
Love bites. Vampires suck.
Marrying one? That might be the worst idea of all.
Nicolette Hart believes in science, not fairy tales. Unfortunately for her, vampires are very real—and one of them just coerced her into marriage.
Julian Rossi is powerful, ruthless, and devastatingly charming. He claims marrying Nicolette is the only way to protect her after her late mother’s groundbreaking research puts her in the crosshairs of a hidden supernatural world. Nicolette is fairly certain he’s the problem, not the solution.
What she doesn’t know is that her mother’s work wasn’t just revolutionary—it was deadly. And now Nicolette holds the missing pieces, making her the key to a discovery that could change the vampire world forever . . . or destroy it.
Compelled to play the part of loving newlyweds while enemies draw closer, Nicolette and Julian strike an uneasy truce. Trust is fragile. Chemistry is inconvenient. And pretending they’re not falling for each other is impossible. But the closer they grow, the more dangerous it becomes for them both.
Because in a world where blood is power and love is a liability, trusting the wrong person could cost Nicolette her life . . . and Julian his soul.
All’s Fair in Love and Blood is a dark, witty, marriage‑of‑inconvenience, enemies‑to‑lovers vampire romance featuring sharp banter, high‑stakes science, and a love story where restraint is just as powerful as passion.

Watch out- this book will snag you, hook, line, and sinker. What began as an intriguing story quickly turned into an all-out book binge and a lot less sleep as I raced to finish in less than 24 hours. It’s just that good! The story starts out with a wedding, between a human and a vampire, Nicolette and Julian. I love that we jumped right into everything, and the plot just thickened from there. Nicolette is incredibly smart, shy and introverted, but Julian quickly learns his bride is also full...

I’m officially obsessed with All’s Fair in Love and Blood by Jennifer Peel—there’s honestly no better word for it. This story is unique from her other books, and she pulls it off beautifully. It’s the vampire romance I didn’t know I needed, blending swoony moments with real tension and danger. I appreciated the science and genetics woven into it that adds just enough plausibility to make the vampire elements feel believable. Julian is everything you want in a vampire: seductive, mysterious, and...

I don’t even know how to put into words how much I loved this book. Jennifer Peel is my absolute favorite author, and somehow she keeps doing this — writing stories that feel completely different every single time, yet I love them more with each one. I honestly don’t know how she comes up with something this creative and unique without it ever feeling repetitive… but she does. Every single time. This book completely pulled me in from the very beginning. I was hooked immediately and all I wanted...
