{"product_id":"2940045577410","title":"Love is Darkness","description":"\u003cp\u003eValerie Dearborn wants a cotton candy life, but it’s more like a puffer fish: pointy, unusual, and—if not prepared exactly right—deadly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn London for graduate school, Val knows she's finally free. Her father and ex- almost-boyfriend are back in California and she's out of the vampire hunting biz for good. Or is she?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe draws the attention of Lucas, a 1600 year old vampire, and King to his kind. He’s also wicked hot. As golden as Lucifer, and just as tempting, he makes Valerie an offer she can't refuse: help him find out if the Others (Empaths, Fey and Werewolves) still exist or he'll stop protecting those she loves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLucas tells her that Empaths were a vampire’s biggest weakness before going extinct hundreds of years ago. While the Fey or a Werewolf might kill a vampire, an Empath could enslave them, seducing or harming them with emotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe one detail he leaves out? Valerie is an Empath. And after 1600 years of an emotionless existence, Lucas is drawn to Val like a recovering alcoholic to a wine cooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCan she keep those she loves alive, stop Lucas from munching on her, survive a fanged revolution and still find a way to have that boring, normal life she’s always wanted? Probably not, but boy is she gonna try.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caroline Hanson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108306960624,"sku":"2940045577410","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940045577410_p0.jpg?v=1763977240","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940045577410","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
