About the product

Our Afterlight Romance theme for September is . . . FANGS FOR THE MEMORIES!

It's been deadly, fangs for the memories!

Our Afterlight September book is a standalone adult paranormal mystery rom-com, and you'll not want to miss it if you're a fan of:⁠

  • Grumpy x Sunshine meets Reluctant Allies
  • Cosy vampire rom-coms
  • Magical talking cats

Imagine this: he's dead – okay, he's a vampire, not quite as dramatic – and trying to enjoy his time in Italy with his cat. Maybe he's flirting with a few of the delectable local men. He's having a great time. But then an actual dead body has the audacity to turn up. Unbelievable. And it's been drained of its blood. That's just his luck. It doesn't matter that he's a reformed vampire, he still becomes their number one suspect. And the handsome detective who simply won't leave him alone? An added bonus. Now if the actual killer could be uncovered – and would just stop killing, please – that would be great. Or else he and Mr. Detective over there will have to find the killer themselves. And he can't promise there'll be no flirting involved.

  • An exclusive redesigned cover (art by @noahdea.art; design by @stephcuff_creative)⁠

All FAQs
  • What is Illumicrate?

    Illumicrate started life as a quarterly subscription box, and we're proud that we were the first UK book subscription box! We launched in the summer of 2015, and our very first box was November 2015. We now offer two options for the Illumicrate monthly subscriptions: a full box subscription and a book only subscription, which features the books included in our monthly boxes.

    In 2021 we launched Afterlight, a quarterly romance subscription box that is now monthly. Evernight, a quarterly horror subscription box, was launched in July 2023. Our new science fiction book only subscription Starbright will launch in February 2025.

    We also offer special editions of books and book sets, with a range of customisations exclusive to Illumicrate. We have also held virtual signings and in 2019 we launched our Debut Boxes, showcasing new debut authors. Our Collections, Archives and Mini-boxes focus on a particular author or fandom.
