Romance Historical | Romance Paranormal

He's been searching for her for four centuries, but now she doesn't remember him.

Matthias Corvinus Andrássy, Count of Bethlen, has been waiting to be reunited with his beloved wife for four hundred years. Years he spent traveling through the world and sucking people's blood.

He's always been careful not to kill anyone, but four hundred years are a long time to be good. As the chances of finding his wife shrink and his loneliness grows, he becomes more restless and dangerous. The lines between love and obsession blur, and he doesn't care about his soul anymore.

Odette has no intention of being anyone's wife. A curse forces her to turn into a swan during the day‑that's enough for any girl to deal with.

When a man she's never met before claims to be her four‑hundred‑year‑old husband, she thinks he's deranged. Were‑swans are one thing, but an ancient vampire who expects her to perform her wifely duties is quite another.

How can she find a way to break her curse while rejecting a dangerous, ancient vampire's advances?
