ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 14, 2022.

An important undercover mission for her coven could get Lilian killed. Targeting one powerful vampire is dangerous enough, but when she’s left with his lethally seductive brother, Night, the stakes have never felt higher.

Night Van der Garde is in no mood to visit his uptight eldest brother, so when he finds Bastian flying out of his mansion door, the evening is looking up… until Bastian orders him to spend the week looking after a human—a bewitching female who rouses a fierce hunger that has him treading the fine line between duty and desire.

When a new threat to his bloodline emerges and secrets about Lilian are revealed, will Night choose to follow his heart or listen to the ghosts of his dark past?

REVIEW:BEWITCHED BY A VAMPIRE is the twenty-first instalment in Felicity Heaton’s contemporary, adult ETERNAL MATES paranormal/fantasy romance series. This is vampire Night Van de Garde, and witch Lilian’s story line. BEWITCHED BY A VAMPIRE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Several characters (Payne & Elissa, Antoine & Sera, Snow & Aurora )cross over from the author’s LONDON VAMPIRE SERIES formerly the VAMPIRE EROTIC THEATRE series. Night Van de Garde is Bastian and Grave’s (Haunted by the King of Death 11) brother.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Night and Lilian) BEWITCHED BY A VAMPIRE follows witch Lilian as she is tasked with taking down the Van de Garde brothers. A call from his brother Bastian finds Night ‘overseeing’ his brother’s household of human servants and familiars but for Lilian, the one female whom his brother had yet to lay claim, has caught the attention of our story line hero. A demon attack forces Night and Lilian on the run together, an alliance that threatens Night’s life and the lives of the people he loves but Night’s partnership with Lilian is a ruse, a ruse meant to imprison our story line hero. Revenge takes aim, and our couple must face betrayal and power from the unlikeliest of sources. What ensues is the building relationship between Lilian and Night, and the fall-out as Lilian’s true self is revealed, and Night has been her target all along.

The relationship between Night and Lilian is predicated upon a series of lies. Lilian is a witch, and is currently in the process of ferreting information about the Van de Garde brothers. The coven has targeted Bastian and Night but the pull between Night and Lilian is enhanced when a blood exchange creates a bond that cannot be unbroken. The appearance of the London Vampire clan reveals secrets and lies, betrayals and truths such that the true evil is someone very close. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and supernatural secondary and supporting characters including all of those previously mentioned. The return of the London Vampires aka Vampire Erotic Theatre is a welcome surprise.

BEWITCHED BY A VAMPIRE is a narrative story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, forgiveness and love. The character driven, action packed premise is captivating and engaging; the romance is seductive; the characters are familiar, energetic, and dynamic.
