A Heart Fierce and Blooming
(2025)(The third book in the Her Fangs in My Heart series)
A novel by Moira Darling
A sunshiny vampire baroness. A grumpy lady knight. And six reasons to fight for something softer.
Baroness Marienne Solmere is all charm, silks, and unending optimism—a vampire with a big heart, a bigger manor, and no idea how to care for children. So naturally, when six traumatized vampire kids are rescued from a collapsed cult, she takes them under her wing.
Enter Ser Tamsin Greaves: a gruff, no-nonsense knight who has seen too much and says too little. Assigned by the Court of Eldermire to bring order to Bloomhill Manor, she is determined to provide structure, discipline… and keep the kids from biting visiting nobles. She arrives expecting a nightmare and finds one. Albeit... a very colorful, very pretty one in heels.
As Tamsin and Marienne circle each other with frustration, attraction, and a shared sense of duty, something strange begins to stir in the old manor: hope. Family. Maybe even love.
But the Court of Eldermire thrives on tradition, and Marienne’s found family breaks every one. As political tensions rise and dangerous eyes turn toward the children, Marienne and Tamsin must risk everything to protect what they've built.
But will it be enough to stop the court from tearing them apart?

A Heart Fierce and Blooming is a standalone steamy sapphic vampire romantasy with a full arc and a HEA. It's part of an interconnected world, but can be enjoyed on its own. Some tropes you'll find inside:
