Kindle Unlimited Reads discussion

A Bargain in Silver is now available on Kindle Unlimited, for all you paranormal romance fans.

The book is the first in the Solis Invicti series (4 books in total, all published).

Praise for A Bargain in Silver:
✭✭✭✭✭ Dystopian, post-apocalyptic and dark, very dark… Josie Jaffrey takes on the world of the paranormal with bold strokes and a personal touch. – Tome Tender
✭✭✭✭✭ I absolutely loved this book. I had the hardest time putting it down. I think I may have even growled at my family when they interrupted me. – Baroness Book Trove

The series is set in London, in a world in which the human population has been decimated by a blood-borne virus. In the wake of the zombie apocalypse that follows, a vampiric race called the Silver seizes control. Without the protection of the Silver, humanity will soon cease to exist, and without uninfected human blood, the Silver will perish. A necessary symbiosis is the result, but the power of the two races could not be more unevenly balanced.

The protagonist of the series is Emilia, a twenty-something barmaid with an insubordinate and reckless approach to the new order. In the first days following the collapse, she struggles to accept that her life has changed irrevocably and that she is powerless to reclaim it. That recalcitrance brings her face to face with the highest ranks of the Silver.

Then, of course, there's the romance element. I'm not going to roll out the spoilers, but suffice it to say that at least one of them is hot. I've played with a few common tropes that irritate me (primarily instalove and the linearity of relationships depicted in romance), together with a few that I really enjoy (like scent-marking and bonding). There are love triangles, aggression and drama, but there is also an eventual HEA (promise!).

The series is targeted at adults and mature young adults. The books contain horror, profanity and sexual content. This isn't erotica, but there are some steamy scenes (only one or two per book).

For those who don’t have Kindle Unlimited, I’m very happy to provide complementary copies in return for honest reviews. Just send me a message with your email address and preferred ebook format.

I hope you enjoy the book, and thanks for reading!
