About this ebook

"Brewed to perfection.” —Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals

After the jaw-dropping ending of #1 New York Times-bestseller A Tempest of Tea, Hafsah Faizal crafts a deliciously twisty and seductive sequel that will leave readers breathless until the very last page. A romantic vampire fantasy novel for fans of Immortal Dark and Heartless Hunter.

Arthie Casimir has had her tea. Now she's out for blood.

White Roaring is sharpening its fangs after the deadly night that left the city in shambles. The press are dead, the public is calling for justice, vampires are in danger, and amid the turmoil, the Ram announces a celebration.

Still reeling from the bloodshed, Arthie Casimir has no time to mourn the death of anyone, let alone her own. She has no time for love, either, even though it had saved her life. As Arthie navigates new emotions and new allies, she must reassemble her scrambled crew and scrape what little they have left to fight one last time—and she will need to face the ghosts of her past to do it.

In Ceylan.

Picking up right after the first book, this story is told in chapters that alternate between Arthie, Jin, and Flick’s points of view, which I think helps to ratchet up the tension. I was absolutely gutted by the ending of the first book, so it was a relief to find that, while this book subjects the characters to terrible events, in the end, things mostly work out. I don’t want to spoil anything, but be aware that it gets really dark at times; not everyone gets a happy ending.
