Synopsis (Goodreads):
No killing until the wedding's over. No killing...

It is such a simple, temporary rule - but Carmilla, the notorious Countess Cardenza, will still find it hard to follow when she's confronted by her most dangerous old flame at Mia and Leander's wedding. With appallingly respectable neighbors, shambling zombies, and old enemies on every side, will her reunion with Eliza end with murder or kissing - or both?
Thoughts on Dangerous Flames: Carmilla, one of the more powerful necromancers, has a wedding to attend, a castle (and the nearby town) to help keep safe, and an old sweetheart (one whom she didn't part ways with in the most amicable manner) to harden her heart against. That said, Carmilla tries her very hardest to pretend like Eliza doesn't affect her. BUT SHE DOES.

Which means when an old enemy appears right before the wedding to do whatever he can to cause a little havoc, Carmilla is both a little off her game and VERY ready to cause some damage to said enemy. Because trading veiled barbs with your old honey-bunny while trying to pretend their long ago parting didn't hurt sometimes puts a lady in a fighting mood.

On the plus side, Eliza is more than willing to stand by Carmilla's side in this battle. Even more of a plus, they find a way to talk through some of their issues and clear up a few misconceptions.

A little danger, a very bad man, two powerful protectors, and the potential for something more to be rekindled.
