A BOOK RIOT BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
She’s out for adventure. He’s out for blood.
Tess Rosenbloom is no stranger to the dark. An assault survivor and grad school dropout, Tess spends her nights managing a chic Brooklyn hotel and her days reading her favorite vampire novels, Blood Feud. She even dabbles in online conspiracies claiming Blood Feud is real—it’s fun to hunt for clues! But deep down, Tess doesn’t believe vampires actually exist . . . until one walks through her door.
It turns out the sexy villain of Blood Feud is trapped, and only Tess can rescue him. Eager to escape her life, Tess agrees to help, and soon she’s on a secret island where the sun never shines, surrounded by deadly vampires—and most terrifying of all, she's falling in love with one of them. (Meanwhile, back in New York, Tess’s estranged best friend is having a sapphic paranormal affair of her own.)
Visiting the world of your favorite story is any fan’s dream, but can Tess outrun the demons of her past (and vampires of her present) before it becomes a nightmare? In this darkly glamorous rom-com, Tess will find out if it’s worth risking her neck—and her heart—for a chance to reclaim her future.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Stayman-London (One to Watch) turns vampire tropes on their head to address consent and healing in this sharp-witted fantasy romance. Tess Rosenbloom was a thriving doctoral student at Columbia University before her colleague Rick Keeton drugged and raped her, and panic attacks and nightmares forced her to leave campus. Three years later, Tess returns for the birthday party of Joni Chaudhari, her ex-roommate and former best friend. Unfortunately, Rick shows up and Tess flees. The night gets stranger when she discovers the world of her favorite book series, Blood Feud, is real, and the vampire Octavia Yoo needs Tess's help to deliver a message to Octavia's twin brother, Callum, who's trapped on a parallel Manhattan known as the Isle. Tess is thrilled to literally escape her reality, but her mission to reunite the vampire siblings leads her to question everything she thought she knew about Blood Feud—especially dashing Callum's role as a purported villain. Stayman makes the Blood Feud fandom feel robust through social media posts, quizzes, and book excerpts. She also sensitively handles Tess's trauma and recovery. There may be one too many subplots butting up against each other, but the center holds. Romance readers who've been involved in fantasy fandom will be especially swept away.
