About this ebook

A deal with a vampire changes Beatrice's life forever.

The decadent world they find themselves glitters from the outside, but beneath the surface lies something sinister, and Beatrice is determined to do everything she can to survive and not draw the attention of the wrong person.

With no idea who to trust, Beatrice has to keep her wits about her, even if they're almost stolen when she encounters a handsome stranger.

There's only one thing for certain, Beatrice's life is never going to be the same again.

The Golden Moon Beatrice was cautioned to stay away from the castle's Golden Moon celebration but her twin brother is adamant that they attend. The castle is magnificent. The banquet table is filled with incredible delights. The secret that her brother finally reveals is horrifying! This is a good start to this new series. It will be interesting to see what the next book brings. I would have given 5 stars but I expected a more enticing cliffhanger.

A simple quiet life for Beatrice and her twin is upended one night when he announces they’re going to the Golden Moon Ball. In that night Beatrice learns everything’s she thought about her life was not quite true and now she’s living in a dangerous plays where she doesn’t know the rules or who to trust. A chance meeting with a kindred soul perhaps is the bright spot in a rather confusing series of events. Now Beatrice must learn quickly in order to survive. An intense read. Poor Beatrice her lif

This is the first book of two which make up the House Of Blood And Roses series. It is well-written and introduces us to a "Dhampir", a half-human, half-vampire character which certainly is something I've never come across before. I liked the flow of the story and the world-building, Beatrice and Pip the main characters are well-drawn and the story certainly had me hooked from beginning to end which by the way is a cliffhanger. I can hardly wait for the next book to be available.
