Allurial is a subscription box in which members choose up to 3 special edition hardcover romantasy books each month. The books are limited, and once they sell out, they are not restocked.
Each month, Allurial posts book hints on its social media. Below I provide both the hints and the corresponding books.
Hint #1
The Book:
We Become Darkness
by Ellis Hunter
Debut
Full Synopsis
A human and a Vampyr forge an unsteady alliance in this marriage-of-convenience romantic fantasy, perfect for fans of The Serpent and the Wings of Night and One Dark Window.
Thalia, Princess of Agripa, has spent the last four years hunting her ex-lover, Cassius—the man who shattered her heart and betrayed her kingdom by becoming a Vampyr. Vampyrs and humans have had a tenuous past since Thalia’s father and sister were murdered thirteen years ago. But with Agripa’s ore supply—the lifeblood of human cities—running out, Thalia’s mother strikes a desperate and dangerous deal: Thalia will marry a Vampyr prince in exchange for their ore.
Thalia is blindsided by the arrangement—and horrified to find Cassius, now serving as the prince’s Hand, is the man tasked with bringing her to the Vampyr kingdom safely. To save her people, she agrees to the marriage—but she plans to dismantle the Vampyr kingdom from within by killing the prince.
The Vampyr court is rife with danger and secrets, and Cassius is always watching. When a monstrous new threat emerges, Thalia realizes the safety and security of their world is far more fragile than she ever believed.
Caught between duty and desire, Thalia must grapple with her feelings for Cassius and decide if she will fulfill her duty to the human crown or embrace the darkness within herself to protect both realms.
We Become Darkness is an atmospheric romantasy, perfect for fans of Nosferatu to sink their teeth into.

The Book:
Summoned to the Wilds
by A.K. Caggiano
Villains & Virtues, #2
Full Synopsis
She’s sworn to protect the realm. Her heart has other plans.
Lady Ammalie Avington, Baroness of Faebarrow, knows it’s not safe to pine after the son of a demon. Especially not the blood mage who threatened and abducted her and now intends to bring ruin to the realm. The very realm she is sworn to serve. It’s just a terribly inconvenient fact because, well…he’s rather cute.
Despite her best efforts, Amma can’t seem to get him out of her mind, not whilst locked up in a tower surrounded by infernal beings, nor trapped below ground in a den of beguiling vampires, and definitely not in the heart of a wild jungle under the tutelage of esoteric witches. She just can’t help herself around Damien Maleficus Bloodthorne, danger be damned. And what danger is there? Damien’s heart, the one he swears to not have, has been softening right before her eyes. Perhaps with her guidance, Damien won’t rain chaos and destruction down on the world. Perhaps she can even save them both as Damien searches for a way to magically unlink them on their quest to fulfill their destinies.
So, when Amma learns she may have ancient, innate magical powers of her own, why not use them to do exactly as she pleases?
