I would recommend The a black Dagger Brotherhood by: JR Ward (I need to reread one day and finish) and The Discovery of Witches (a witch falls in love with a Vampire in a Forbidden romance)
Would also recommend the All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harknesd (1st book is Discovery of Witches) and The Raven by Sylvain Reynard (3 book series). All very good reads!
The Laurell K Hamilton Anita Blake series is so so good. Its slow burn in the first seversl books, leading to a very high spice level in the middle/later books. I've been addicted to this series for ages!
I just finished Embers in the Snow and I enjoyed that one very much! I agree with you on the not a lot of action, but I just loved how they got to know each other, and how protective they both were to each other! So good!
Added Black Sunshine to my wish list. Each time you talk about it makes me want to read it so I definitely need to check it out. I have Empire of the Vampire but haven’t read it yet. Maybe I should next month.
Have you venture into the Vampire Chronicles yet? They don't get a lot of love these days, sadly, but Queen of the Damned and Momnoch the Devil are all time favorites of mine. The series fell of for a number of years, but the last 3 books Rice wrote before she died were also great book and a return to form.
I just finished K.F. Breene's Demon Days, Vampire Nights series, and while it wasn't my favorite series, it was good enough that I finished all 11 books.😸 If you like paranormal vampire stories, (this one is urban-fantasy set it New Orleans) and if you like them snarky, spicy and kinda violent, you might like this one. The kick-ass heroine is Reagan and her arch begins with Fused in Fire. But I preferred Penny the shy Witch's arch. He story begins in book 4, in Natural Witch. Lot's of sexy vampires.
An awesome series I’m reading rn is “Bite the Woman that Feeds” by Penelope Barsetti…I gave the first book 5 stars…check trigger warnings b/c the MMC is very morally grey.
I LOVED Empire of the Vampire!!! Favourite read of the year so far! (and shameless plug but if you don’t want to reread the first book, I have an in depth recap of it posted on my channel for just that reason 😂)
I went with the standalone Embers in the snow. It is not even a small town more a castle-romance. Up till their first sex scene the book is good. After that it drags. But here the FC and Mc were likable. I didn't want to kill them.🤣 . . SPOILER OR SO The side story with the second prince is just a page filler and gives us some unticlimaktic fight scenes. The scene in the palace was very emotionaly good and it could have ended there. Also the mother-sidestory doesn't bring anything to the table: is she needed to break the seal? does she help with learning about powers? 🤷♀️She just shows up for the wedding. And prince looks like a hero😮💨 Just a sek...I tried to mark "between my thighs" as a read....I lost track of it...because it became preditable and boring.
Currently reading bride by Ali Hazelwood and 😍 loving so far. Learning about the Vampyrs and Weres, the jokes made me LOL 😆 and nice build up of romance. Update; I love this book 😍❤️From start to finish. I think this is the best fantasy I've ever read 👀I could go on and on about this book💞 It explained something I witnessed and got curious about, as a child😏🤯
empire of the vampire is so misogynistic and kristoff has an unrespectful way of creating female characters. I really dont mind a lot of shit, but this and the weird obsession with r*pe was a deal breaker for me. the narrator and formatting are great though.
Another vampire recommendation J. R. Ward's The Black Dagger Brotherhood series is an awesome series.
That’s the best Vampire series ever!!!
Passionflix is adapting it.. ❤

YES! A Discovery of Witches is top tier!
A Discovery Of Witches is one of my all time favorites. I’ve read the whole series like 3 times lol
Omgosh.... A Discovery of Witches....SO dayum good!!! 🤩
The Laurell K Hamilton Anita Blake series is so so good. Its slow burn in the first seversl books, leading to a very high spice level in the middle/later books. I've been addicted to this series for ages!
Slaying the Vampire Conqueror is standalone but Carissa has said the characters will show up later in The Crowns of Nyaxia series
I just finished Embers in the Snow and I enjoyed that one very much! I agree with you on the not a lot of action, but I just loved how they got to know each other, and how protective they both were to each other! So good!
I too was very surprised by how much I enjoyed Bride… after this video I might have to read black sunshine.
TYSFM for this vid as vamps are my jam! I’m always looking for more vampire romance book recommendations 😂😊
🖤🖤🖤
Embers in the snow, I gave 5⭐️ loved it
I really like this channel! Super exciting! ❤🎉😊 I have the coven and the cursed at home. And they seem very interesting.
Thank you so much!!!! 🖤
Another recommendation is the transfusion and afterlife series by Stephanie Hudson. Great books! X
Black sunshine is one I’ve never heard of but sounds super interesting

No, but I’ve been wanting to read them for years! I’m going to add the first book to my October TBR!
@@HonestFiction I read the first years ago, absolutely loved it so homoerotic and so romantic but in surprising ways ❤
@@HonestFictionI am going to be rereading it
I absolutely love your recs! ❤❤Do you have any witchy recs?
I’m filming a witchy rec video this weekend!! But two of my favorites are The Coven by Harper L Woods & Hollow Heathens by Nicole Fiorina!
@HonestFiction I love both of those books too!
I’m checking out Invoking the Blood right now. It’s pretty good so far!!!

Embers on the Snow has been added to my tbr list
I would recommend the Dark Protectors series by Rebecca Zanetti.
So SO freaking good - the whole series is fantastic!!! 🤩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Not even a paranormal girlie but I'm watching this because I love your recs
Ahhhh thank you!!! ♥️🫶🏼🥹
I still need to read Black Sunshine.
Ahhh it’s so good! I think you’d really like it! 🖤
You should try Vampire awaken series by Brenda k Davies I love the books on audiobooks. You should read the books by publication order
You should try Geneva Lee filthy rich vampires series
Holy moly.... the Black Sunshine duet is FANTASTIC - Absolon is so swooney in a very alpha way 😍🥵🔥🔥🔥
YASS!!! I love him so much!
I LOVED Empire of the Vampire!!! Favourite read of the year so far! (and shameless plug but if you don’t want to reread the first book, I have an in depth recap of it posted on my channel for just that reason 😂)
@@welcometomyescape AHHHH you’re a freakin’ lifesaver!!! Running to your channel!!!! 🏃♀️
Read Blood Gospel by James Rollins. Excellent and way different take on vampire trope
I can’t wait to read the songbird and the heart of stone by Carissa Broadbent
I went with the standalone Embers in the snow. It is not even a small town more a castle-romance. Up till their first sex scene the book is good. After that it drags. But here the FC and Mc were likable. I didn't want to kill them.🤣

Anita blake series!

Empire of the vampire absolutely isn't a vampire romance, just a heads up. Very much enjoyable nevertheless.
empire of the vampire is so misogynistic and kristoff has an unrespectful way of creating female characters. I really dont mind a lot of shit, but this and the weird obsession with r*pe was a deal breaker for me. the narrator and formatting are great though.
The Black Dagger Brotherhood series! I'm rereading it and listening on Audible. Passionflix is doing an adaptation and I will be subscribing soon.
