Synopsis:

Hidden in our world, a society of vampires originating in Africa, can only feed from select human bloodlines. Each bloodline represents a House more cutthroat than the next. To ensure peaceful co-existence and inherit their legacy, human children of these families must study at an elite university before choosing a vampire companion.

Lost Heiress, Kidan Adane grew up far from Uxlay University. She is obsessively protective, mildly nihilistic, and willing to do anything to save her loved ones. When her sister, June, disappears, Kidan is convinced a vampire stole her - the alluring yet dangerous Susenyos Sagad, the same vampire bound to her own House.

To stay in Uxlay, Kidan must study an arcane philosophy, work with four enigmatic students, and survive living with Susenyos - even as he does everything to drive her away. It doesn't matter that Susenyos' violence speaks to her own and tempts Kidan to surrender to a life of darkness. She must find her sister and kill him at all costs.

When a murder mirroring June's disappearance shakes Uxlay, Kidan sinks further into the ruthless underworld of vampires, risking her very soul. Here, she discovers a centuries-old threat. And June could be at the very centre of it.

Miniature Review
This is one of the hardest books I have had to review for all the best reason. I loved this book and I am struggling to write a review without saying "BuyThisBookNOW!!! ILOVEDIT!!! YOUNEEDTOREADIT!!". 

Tigest understood the assignment, Immortal Dark is effortlessly enchanting. Tigest’s wonderfully gripping writing style and immersive dialogue had me hooked and I knew I was a goner within the first ten chapters. I know I’m a sucker for vampires (Ha didn’t mean that pun) but the enemies to lovers’ element was perfect the tension was tangible, and the plot was brilliant.

This is a dark and violent book with an angry heroine who has every right to be angry and is given the space to be angry. Kidan is a brilliant main character she is merciless and unapologetic. Okay yes, she does some bad things without remorse, but she has her reasons and motives behind her actions that don’t come across as a villain caricature instead they are well thought out and believable.

You have to read this book if you love vampires, dark academia, or enemies to lovers.
