Dark, sensual, and steeped in Norse mythology, Antonia: Curse of the Volsungs is a tale of forbidden love, vengeance, and eternal hunger.
Her best-selling novels are praised as dark fiction.
No one suspects they are her memoirs… until now.
Born in Pisa in 1042 CE, Antonia lost everything when Viking raiders slaughtered her husband and child and dragged her into captivity. Her salvation came in the arms of Erik, the chieftain’s eldest son—a forbidden love that defied blood, fate, and the gods themselves.
The punishment was worse than death.
Cursed by a Volsung witch, the lovers were transformed into immortal creatures of different hungers. Antonia awoke to an eternal thirst for blood. Erik was claimed by a darker legacy—one bound to moonlight, myth, and a bloodline that could not be broken. Torn apart by the curse, Antonia searched for her lover for centuries.
In the modern world, Antonia has reinvented herself as the bestselling author A.D. Rossi, weaving her long and violent history into novels that her readers believe are fiction. By night, she stalks upscale hotel bars, feeding discreetly while hiding in plain sight.
When ancient bloodlines stir, and the past refuses to stay buried, Antonia must confront the truth behind the curse—and whether immortality is her punishment… or her last chance at redemption.
