Critical Reviews
"Savage Blooms is a dark, erotic, gothic romance and it delivers big on all three aspects. Gibson writes skillfully and with care...Not for the faint of heart, Savage Blooms is for readers who like their sex kinky and their relationships complicated."
--BookPage"In this lavishly erotic fantasy, Gibson brings to life the magic of the Scottish countryside... . Gibson sets the heat to high on the way to a surprising ending that will have readers clamoring for more. Fans of dark fantasy romance won't want to miss this."
--Publishers Weekly "A darkly decadent descent into desire. A masterful exploration of faerie bargains, ancestral burdens, and power struggles woven between the pages of a thrilling tale you can't help but be swept up in."--Hazel McBride, author of A Fate Forged in Fire "An isolated women's college, a Gothic aesthetic that would make the Brontë sisters proud, an all-consuming passion between sapphic academic rivals...what's not to like here? Light a candle to maximize the moody vibes and dive in."--People on An Education In Malice "From sinful all-night salons to hedonistic Halloween parties, Laura's world thrums with dark pleasures that will leave you wanting more."--Kirkus on An Education in Malice "A dizzying nightmare of a romance that will leave you aching, angry and ultimately hopeful."--Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author, on A Dowry of Blood "Stunningly gorgeous and devastatingly romantic, you won't want to miss this one!"--Katee Robert, New York Times bestselling author, on A Dowry of Blood "Dark, seductive...A messy, in-depth portrait of emotional abuse that nails Constanta's complex intermingling of love, pain, fear, and anger in mesmerizing prose. Thorny, fast-paced, and unabashedly queer, this is sure to draw readers in."--Publishers Weekly on A Dowry of Blood "A powerful take of possession and liberation. This is a Dracula retelling unlike any other--undeniable and unforgettable."--Rose Szabo, author of What Big Teeth, on A Dowry of Blood "A Dowry of Blood is a delectable jewel of a tale, shimmering with dark, beautiful prose. Gibson balances mournful gothic possession with heartfelt emotional authenticity for a thrilling ride from start to finish."--Tori Bovalino, author of Not Good for Maidens, on A Dowry of Blood "Seductive, lyrical, and rich with period detail, this daring retelling casts the Harkers' story aside to follow Dracula's medieval bride and her tangled romance with his consorts over the centuries. The horror--pulsing and beautiful--comes as much from Constanta's insights into her husband's psychology as it does from bloodlust. A dark triumph."--Mary McMyne, author of The Book of Gothel, on A Dowry of Blood"A drizzly, moody, and lustrously carnal rendition of a storybook tale, Savage Blooms is the holy grail for lovers of dark academia and faery magic alike. By the time I got to the epilogue, I was ready to bite into the pages like they were made of faery fruit, just so I'd never have to leave."
--Sierra Simone, author of Priest"With Savage Blooms, Gibson cements herself as one of the strongest and most unique voices in gothic romance. This dangerous and decadent subversion of a found family is fresh, unabashedly queer, and gripping from the very first rain-soaked page. Gibson is a ferociously talented writer at the top of her game."
--Sydney J. Shields, author of An Arcane Study of Stars "An Education in Malice is an ode to girlhood; ribbons, blood, poetry, and rage. Gibson's fang-sharp prose and unflinching honesty create a delicate and fearless exploration of loneliness, love, and--as the bridge between those two absolutes--longing."--Sydney J. Shields, author of The Honey Witch, on An Education In Malice "Tension oozes out of every page as the quartet's attraction becomes more tangled and twisted...it's a magical bacchanalian soap opera where love and hate flip like a switch, with deviance and lust underscoring every interaction."--Kirkus "This book grabbed me by the throat and didn't let go. Lush, savage, and sexy--Gibson has crafted a gothic fever dream that will consume you. I devoured every delicious, twisted page."--Elizabeth May, author of The Falconers"A polyamorous, kinky, queer, gothic, erotic romantasy for those wanting angst and ancestral sins in their books."
--Library Journal"This is a steamy, kinky, brooding gothic fantasy I couldn't stop reading, and I can't wait for book two in the trilogy."
--Book Riot"S.T. Gibson is always a lyrical and incisive treat."
--Sarah Rees Brennan, author of Long Live Evil
