The Pureblood Daughter

Summary

Bridgerton meets vampires in this spicy historical romance.

Afflicted by a mysterious illness since childhood and without a single interested suitor, Adelina Gray is certain she'll never have a husband to call her own—someone to love, to build a life and family with. Her sickness has caused her to cling to shadows, an outcast in the glittering and luxurious ballrooms of Everborough.

While stumbling through a dance at yet another soirée, Adelina catches the eye of the rich and powerful Viscount Rosetti, society's most eligible bachelor—a man desperate mothers will do anything to secure for their daughters. Adelina is certain she'll never be good enough for him. How could she ever be worthy of a viscount when even the common gentleman finds her ailments to be a disgrace? But the fire in his eyes says otherwise, as does the smoldering heat of his forbidden touch.

Despite her father's fervent disapproval, Adelina allows the viscount to court her secretly. She begins to unravel his mysteries, discovering he’s something straight out of a blood-soaked fairy tale. His kiss awakens something within her, a hunger that's been bound in chains for far too long. Now she's ready to break free, even if it means tearing apart the only life she's ever known.
