Marriage of Undead Inconvenience: A Cozy-Spooky Historical Fantasy Rom-Com
Marriage of Undead Inconvenience: A Cozy-Spooky Historical Fantasy Rom-Com | Stephanie Burgis
2 posts | 1 read | 5 to read
Margaret Dunhaven may have been forced into marriage with the sinister vampire lord of Shadowcroft Manor to fulfill a family obligation, but she's not about to stay trapped there for long. The beastly man doesn't even have any decent tea leaves in his kitchen! However, when she realizes that she's not the only one who's been forced into this marital union, it's time to join forces with her unwanted new husband. If they can combine her scholarly skills with his ancient history, then, working together, they might just manage to reclaim her inheritance, break his curse, and find their freedom. ...Just so long as they don't fall in love along the way. A witty and sparkling gothic fantasy novella that puts a new twist on Beauty and the Beast in an alternate-history version of late 19th century England.

“It was Margaret Dunhaven‘s opinion that a marriage that constrained her to drink stale tea could not be described as ‘convenient‘ in any meaningful sense of the world.”

Great opening line. I could quite happily have read a full length novel rather than just this little gothic fantasy novella - because parts of the plot were definitely galloped through to get to the conclusion… it was quite fun tho - and happily read with my evening meal.

julesG Stacked. The title sounds intriguing 3mo
