This is a short novella that should be read before The Ashes and The Star Cursed King. Lilith is desperate to find a cure for a plague that has been ravishing her people. That desperation leads her to Vale. Convinced that his blood is the key to a cure, she offers him a trade.

I enjoyed this novella. Lilith is headstrong, curious, and determined to find a cure for her sister. Vale is withdrawn and seems very lonely. Her fearlessness peaks his interest and he becomes invested in her research.
I loved how fiercely protective they were of each other. 

The depiction of vampires is more romanticized in this book vs the rest of the series. 

Tropes: vampires, forbidden romance
