Bound and Unbound: A paranormal novella duology
Ali Hazelwood
Eternal Captive: A Dark Enemies-to-Lovers Sapphic Vampire Romance (Blood Royale, Book 1)
by Elle Mae
About this book
From Elle Mae comes a spicy sapphic vampire romance set in the world of Contract Bound with all new characters and a romance between a cruel vampire princess and a cold hunter who come face to face after a prophecy foretells the princess's death by the hunter's hands.
Vesper
My entire life had been decided by a prophecy.
Born into a family proficient in killing every type of supernatural being on the planet, there was only one path for me. But when it finally came to fulfill the prophecy, I found myself face to face with the most cruel yet breathtaking creature I had ever come to know.
The same one I was supposed to kill. Yet how is it when every time I try, she's always one step ahead of me?
Aurelia
My father had turned me into a monster.
A cruel, unbreaking force that laughed in the face of all those who stood to face me.
And then he went and sold me to a bastard Prince who wanted to see nothing more than my own downfall. All while trying everything my later mother worked so hard to build.
And then she came.
She would have been a beautiful break in the constant downpour that had been my life... if she hadn't gone and ruined it all by putting her nose where it didn't belong. But I would pay it back in full, and maybe even have some fun while I was at it.
Note: all TW will be on the author's website.
This is NOT a continuation of Contract Bound but is set in the same world far in the future after the downfall of The Order and the regaining of power of vampire royalty.

Just how many home runs can one author have? It almost seems too easy to keep giving this author’s books 5 stars. But trust that they are well earned. She is one of my favorite authors for many reasons. But mostly for being able to write some of the best “frenemies to lovers” books more than anyone else that I know. From the first paragraph, you’re easily pulled into these characters worlds. And the other part, is that the writing and the telling is so brilliant, that I. can NEVER figure out...

4⭐️ - a “consultant” (a.k.a. Hunter) in turmoil over hating but desiring a vampire princess. Great setup, interesting plot (so far), and untapped potential when coupled with the introduction of witches and prophecies. All of those elements I loved and of course the writing well done, so if you like a good vampire book, you should read it. Fair warning though that there are a LOT of plot gaps, loose ends that never get tied together and a cliffhanger“ending” that will make you groan!! I’m...

This was an exciting story to read. I liked all the characters except those that were abusive to the main characters, Princess Aurelia and Vesper. I felt sad for the princess having an uncaring father after her mother the Queen was murdered and the father remarried. Her stepmother and step sister were cruel to her, but even heart breaking was when she fell for Vesper her guard that was gifted by her intend Prince Icas Solei. Though Vesper came with the intention to kill Princess Aurelia she...
