A Magic So Deadly

Samara gets everything she ever wanted at the cost of becoming what she despises most in this gripping second book in the slow-burn vampire romantasy Kingdom of Dark Magic series with a unique magic system that’s perfect for readers of Carissa Broadbent, Penn Cole, and Jennifer L. Armentrout. Samara wakes in a prison cell as her worst nightmare: she’s a vampire, cursed with bloodlust that horrifies her. And though Samara now has the magic she’s always desperately craved, it’s a secret she must guard with her undead life. Because this same magic marks her as an enemy of all vampires—especially Raphael, their king. Samara should flee before Raphael can discover she’s the very witch he’s been hunting for centuries, but the mystical sire bond between them prevents Samara from leaving his side. Instead, she must journey with him to the Southern Vampire Kingdom—sharing both his carriage…and his bed. On edge from her forced proximity to Raphael, Samara is also tormented by her inescapable vampire thirst. Every night, she claws at her throat trying to ease the pain. And when she’s around Raphael, her fangs ache without her knowing why. Once in the Southern Vampire Kingdom, Raphael offers Samara another bargain: Yield to her vampire nature and master her abilities, and he will help her break their bond. The temptation is too powerful to resist, but if Samara’s control over the powers she barely understands slips for even a moment and Raphael learns she’s the necromancer…the sire who made her will have no choice but to destroy her.
