Blood & Guilt: A Modern Vampire Romantasy (Vampire of Montenegro Series Book 1) by Jade Christy

Some vampires crave blood. He craves absolution. He’s a vampire who feeds from a priest and hides in a crypt, full of guilt. She is a woman who lost everything — but refuses to lose herself. In the mountains of Montenegro, Luka has spent fifty years punishing himself for a single, catastrophic mistake. He believes he is beyond redemption. Then Claire, sheltering from a storm while hiking, walks into his darkness and sees him. Not the monster. Not the hunger. But his soul. Their connection is slow, intimate, and dangerously real. “Blood & Guilt” is a deeply sensual, character-driven vampire romance about trust, confession, and daring to love when you believe you are unworthy of it. This is Book 1 of a four book series for fans of "A Discovery of Witches".
