Description
Undeniably Female. Unquestionably Feral. Unquenchably Famished.
It’s been twenty years since Chartreuse Grenoble witnessed not only the burning of her sister at the stake for claims of witchcraft but the great all-consuming fire of New Orleans. When the enigmatic, pure blood Altrinion-Vampire, Dalcour Marchand rescues her from fleeing her family’s doomed state, she has no idea she is nothing more than a bartering tool for his wretched brother, Decaux.
But she has other plans. She has no desire to be used or controlled.
Forging her own dark alliances, Chartreuse defies not only the will of men but the supernatural balance itself in her blood-thirsty quest to avenge what matters most.
Herself.

I enjoyed this book, I read the majority of it in o e sitting, o ly stopped when my eyes began to blur.
It wasn't what I expected, and it held me from the beginning,
I would have liked a bit more with Dalcour and Titan after the first night

L.C Son is a new author for me and writes with a very unique style. It is dark but full of hope, vivid and well developed, and raw but sophisticated. Her world-building and character development are truly impressive as well. I did have a few minor issues with the story, the most obvious ones were the overuse of the same pet name multiple times in a short dialogue and the use of "preciousness" as the term for female private areas. “Red” “Beloved” and “Dear Sister” are the few I can think of off-hand that continued to come up over and over again...and "preciousness" made me think of Golom from Lord of The Rings. I don’t dislike pet names but they are seriously overused and detract from the reader's experience and fluidity. I definitely recommend this story but may not read any further because dark just isn’t my thing. BUT I am a true fan of Son’s idea to tell the story from the villain’s perspective.
