About this listen

The addictive, enthralling debut by online sensation Abigail Gibbs. The sexiest romance you’ll read this year.

One moment can change your life forever…

For Violet Lee, a chance encounter on a darkened street draws her into a world beyond her wildest imaginings, a timeless place of vast elegance and immeasurable wealth – of beautiful mansions and lavish parties – where a decadent group of friends live for pleasure alone. A place from which there is no escape… no matter how hard Violet tries.

Yet all the riches in the world can’t mask the darkness that lies beneath the gilded surface, embodied in the charismatic but dangerous Kaspar Varn.

Violet and Kaspar surrender to a passion that transcends their separate worlds – but it’s a passion that comes at a price.

As featured on BBC Breakfast, Sky News, Sunday Times, Guardian, Mail Online, Huffington Post and Sugarscape.

Critic reviews

‘Abigail Gibbs will make you fall in love with vampires all over again… but look out: these vampires will bite’ Meg Cabot, author of Insatiable and The Princess Diaries

‘The Dark Heroine is an epic sexy vampire story set in London with afflicting characters and non-stop action (literally). I cannot wait for this book to be published because it will be HUGE! Bigger than it already is!’ Dark Reader

‘Romance, action and an impossibly sexy (yet possibly deadly) male character! Do I need to say more?’ I Want to Read That

‘The Dark Heroine is a dark and seductive paranormal romance that had me completely intrigued. Abigail Gibbs gives us a dangerous, sexy and sometimes disturbing set of vampires and a heroine who quite frankly would wipe the floor with the likes of Bella Swan.’ One More Page

Boring for an adult audience, it didn’t hold my attention and almost gave it up.

I bought this book based on the great reviews, but the book was a disappointing buy, the story was dull and I could not like the main characters at all so just fast forwarded to get to the end. I thought 17 hours of listening would be a great book to get absorbed in but it did not work for me.
I would return it if I could but it was bought on a special offer.

Not Enjoyable

Where does Dinner with a Vampire rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It stands up to books like Stormfront. Dinner with a Vampire is fast moving, confusing and different.. Very easy to visualise, clearly drawn pictures!

What other book might you compare Dinner with a Vampire to, and why?

Stormfront: similar need to suspend disbelief so as to be drawn into fantasy world.

What about Josie Dunn’s performance did you like?

Easy to listen to. Flowing.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Smile, wince...

Compelling sexy fiction. Well worth a listen.
