Review Quotes:
"THE BRIDES is DRACULA'S worthy successor: a gothic, sapphic epistolary novel that thrills, chills, and delights in equal measure. I loved every page!" --Johanna Van Veen, author of Blood on the Tongue and My Darling Dreadful Thing

"Puts a lively, queer spin on Dracula's brides.... Cross crafts characters worth rooting for.... Fans of S.T. Gibson's A Dowry of Blood will want to check this out." -- Publishers Weekly

"This novel will send many readers, old and new, back to where it all began, to meet those women haunting Dracula's castle with perhaps more compassion and curiosity. Cross reminds us they were once human." -- Historical Novels Review

Contributor Bio:Cross, Charlotte
Charlotte Cross writes historical speculative fiction, having been fascinated by stories of the past since she was a child. She grew up in southern England in a small town with a rich history, and spent many happy hours at the local museum where her grandmother was a volunteer. Charlotte now lives in central Scotland with her partner and their opinionated ginger cat. When not writing, she enjoys yoga, reading Victorian novels, and exploring her adopted country. The Brides is her first novel.
