"Brewed to perfection.” —Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals

After the jaw-dropping ending of #1 New York Times-bestseller A Tempest of Tea, Hafsah Faizal crafts a deliciously twisty and seductive sequel that will leave readers breathless. A romantic vampire fantasy novel for fans of Immortal Dark and Heartless Hunter.

Arthie Casimir has had her tea. Now she's out for blood.


White Roaring is sharpening its fangs after the deadly night that left the city in shambles. The press are dead, the public is calling for justice, vampires are in danger, and amid the turmoil, the Ram announces a celebration.

Still reeling from the bloodshed, Arthie Casimir has no time to mourn the death of anyone, let alone her own. She has no time for love, either, even though it had saved her life. As Arthie navigates new emotions and new allies, she must reassemble her scrambled crew and scrape what little they have left to fight one last time—and she will need to face the ghosts of her past to do it.

In Ceylan.

"Maya Saroya gives an expressive performance in this thrilling historical fantasy filled with vampires, action, romance, and tea." —AudioFile on A Tempest of Tea

This is the second half of Hafsah Faizal’s Blood and Tea duology of historical fantasy with vampires, and it picks up right after the events of the first book, so you should read them in order. I love a good heist story, political intrigue, and secrets, all of which you’ll find here. There’s also a sense of found family that I appreciate, although this family is definitely going through some rough times and having big feelings.

This fast-paced story is told in chapters that alternate between Arthie, Jin, and Flick’s points of view, which I think helps to ratchet up the tension. I was absolutely gutted by the ending of the first book, so it was a relief to find that, while this book subjects the characters to terrible events, in the end, things mostly work out. I don’t want to spoil anything, but be aware that it gets really dark at times, and not everyone will get a happy ending.

The audiobook production was excellent. I loved the narration by Maya Saroya. She has a pleasant voice and accent, good pacing, and clear pronunciation. The story works well as an audiobook.

I received a free ARC of the ebook through NetGalley, and I purchased the audiobook. I volunteered to provide an honest review.

Found family, secrets, danger, intrigue, & heists
