Books like Time's convert by Deborah Harkness

*Time's Convert* follows Matthew de Clermont, a vampire born in the American Revolution, and his attraction to Marcus MacNeil, a young surgeon who seeks immortality and a life beyond his puritanical upbringing. The two form a bond that challenges both the de Clermont family’s traditions and Marcus’s beliefs in liberty and equality. Fast forward to contemporary London, where Marcus has fallen for Phoebe Taylor—a young Sotheby’s employee—and her decision to become a vampire brings the weight of centuries of tradition into today’s world. The novel explores how the past and present collide, the enduring power of tradition, and the possibility of change amid the supernatural. Fans of Deborah Harkness’s previous works, particularly the *All Souls* series, will find a compelling mix of romance, fantasy, and historically grounded storytelling. The narrative weaves a passionate love story with the tension of immortal responsibilities and human desires.
