Caught in Queen Magritte’s snare and forced to wed someone he loathes, Lord Valadon, King of the vampires in New York, enlists the aid of two of his most powerful allies to thwart the plans of the Queen of All Vampires.

Meanwhile, Remare’s return is hardly what Miranda has been dreaming about. With her association with Guy de Montglat revealed, her relationships with Remare and Valadon become strained. If she wants to keep her dreams alive, she will have to choose who to give her oath of loyalty—to her own bloodline or to the vampire who holds her heart. Everyone has secrets, right? Remare knows this, but the secrets Miranda has been keeping threaten to tear them apart. Only through trust can their love survive. Now he must find a way to earn her trust or risk losing her forever. A situation that will not bode well for House Valadon.

REVIEW
The latest book in the Seven Deadly Veils series, Veil of Secrets, focuses more on Valadon. He is the King of the New York vampires and a big part of this series and I’m glad we got more time with him. We get insight and some of the backstory into the vampire’s life, especially Valadon’s. The book is filled with secrets, some are exposed, others still held. There is deception all around with trusts and loyalty being questioned while friendships & loyalties are being bound. Diana Marik writes in vivid detail, her words drawing you in. The numerous characters are well-developed and fascinating. You never know what’s going to happen next. The series plot line is growing and expanding. A perfect blend of the vampire/werewolf/elemental world in current day. A lot of action, suspense, and romance all woven perfectly together. Fascinating series!
