So I read The Poisoner by I.V Ophelia recently and really liked it up until the end. If you haven’t read it, it’s pretty much a dark Gothic spicy vampire Romance story but the vampire MMC is like super super morally grey and they go back and forth trying to kill each other.
So anyway…I’m struggling to find something that gives me the same feeling that did and was looking for some suggestions. Here’s some tropes I like:
• enemies to lovers
• vampire (please please please)
• slow burn or at least NOT insta love
• spice
• morally grey mmc (he can even be a dick to her as long as there’s obsession there)
• a fmc that’s not just a doormat lol
Bonus points if the mmc is blonde (my type oops)
Obviously, I don’t know if there’s one with all of these, but if you have any recommendations with some of these, that would be great.

I love a good vampire book but you lost me on pretty much all the rest but I’ll try anyway (certainly not knocking you, just not my wheelhouse). I think you’d probably enjoy Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire. I think it checks a lot of your prompts and it’s certainly a classic of the genre.
Fevre Dream by George RR Martin is also probably worth checking out. I don’t believe it has much “spice” but it’s a fun read.
Edit: Oh man, I just remembered some vampire books from my childhood that may work well for you!
Check out Christopher Pike’s The Last Vampire – it’s a trilogy but that’s the first book. Cheers!
