Publication Date: Novembere 14, 2023
Genre: Historical Fiction/ Fantasy/ Vampires
Emma May Shinnecock grew up wild on the remote Western prairies in the 1820s. Left free to roam and learn from the nature surrounding her, Emma’s hunger for life drives her to flaunt formal conventions as she discovers the world around her.
After embracing her first romantic liaison with a mysterious stranger, she is left with far more than a confusing introduction to love. She is now a Beguiler, a “blood thirster” with exciting new abilities and a deeper lust for life. But her condition comes with a steep price. For the Beguiler lures its victims by forcing Emma to appear to them as the lost loves they desire most. Can Emma ever be seen as she truly is? Or is she doomed to survive only by being what others want her to be?
From her cunning role as a frontier town madam, to her flawed redemption as a preacher’s wife, to her passionate yet tragic life among a fringe clan of the Lakota, Emma’s quest to find love is a distinctly American twist on vampire lore you won’t soon forget.
Available on Amazon
Review:
Hot Berry Punch is a vampire and historical fiction read, where Emma is the main character. This was a fun read and interesting to read as I have not heard of this author until now. I really liked the 1800s setting and the plot of a vampire in the wild West. It was different than I normally read but definitely enjoyable.
