By Paulette Kennedy. Long before Mina and Lucy, there was Ileana, Dracula's last bride. Cloistered in Dracula's mountainside castle for centuries, Ileana and her sister vampires lead a sheltered existence, only permitted to leave their keep at night to hunt. But when Dracula's ambitions take him across the sea to England, Ileana experiences a newfound freedom—and an unexpected awakening of long-dormant desires when she befriends a village midwife-healer who claims to have the ability to cure Ileana's vampirism.
Made a vampire against her will, Ileana craves the mundane pleasures of a human life ... and human love. But when her sisters discover Ileana's secret, loyalties are tested and old grievances emerge, forcing Ileana to make a choice that could destroy her and those she loves most. Bringing Dracula's unnamed brides out of the shadows, The Last Bride is a tale of sacrifice, feminine agency, and resilience against impossible odds, set in the same darkly beautiful world Stoker imagined over a century ago.
Softcover book includes the full text of Dracula by Bram Stoker in Tête-Bêche format. 6x9" trim, 540 pages (The Last Bride 155 pages; Dracula 385 pages).
