A winter pairing from my Books & Baubles series: lush, dark, and perfect for the longest nights of December. This one blends the immortal passion of A Dowry of Blood with a bauble made for dramatic, candlelit reading.
The Book:
A Dowry of Blood is all tragic devotion, old-world luxury, and the quiet power of choosing yourself after centuries in the dark. It’s the kind of story that lingers like velvet and smoke.
The Bauble:
This vintage faux fur wrap from Retro Stage feels exactly like Constanta’s world: soft, elegant, and hiding a little danger beneath the beauty. Perfect for cold nights and rich gothic moods.
