Critically acclaimed and bestselling author, Syrie James, once again transports her readers back in time and enchants them ...Truly outstanding!" -- Austenesque Reviews "We enter Mina's psyche...and likewise develop an understanding of Dracula's motivations. This insight explains why a human woman and a 'monster' would literally ache to be with one another. I was exhilarated, enthralled, and completely mesmerized. Vampire book lovers will absolutely love this book." -- Bestfantasystories.com "Dracula, My Love had me hooked immediately. Filled with suspense and romance, it had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. It was incredibly well written and I couldn't put it down. Syrie James paints an amazing picture of Dracula that left me both infatuated and appalled." -- LitFest "Only Mina Harker, who once fell under the seductive spell of literature's most famous vampire, knows Dracula's true story.

The story unfolds with fast-paced action, well-written dialogue, and historical events mixed in with a truly remarkable love story that keeps the reader glued to every page. Another hit (for Syrie James)... right out of the park." -- Feathered Quill "Must read... I love the way this book was written... Both love stories (Mina and Jonathan/Mina and Dracula) have such depth... I became so caught up in the story that I wasn't sure who I wanted Mina to end up with... A really emotional love story. Rating: 9 (Excellent)" -- The Season For Romance "An excitingly dark tale with a romantic twist...a page turner from start to finish. The author has given Dracula something that is missing in earlier novels - a heart and soul...Like a vampire draining his latest victim, I sucked down every juicy detail of Dracula, My Love." -- Stephanie's Written Word "What really happened between Mina and Dracula?
