Blurb: A startling new vision of paranormal romance: When a human ventures into the world of vampires—a decadent milieu of blood-bonds and betrayal—she discovers that not all is what it seems.
For Reyna Carpenter, giving up her body isn’t a choice. It’s survival.
In a civilization laid waste by poverty and desperation, Reyna accepts a high-paying position with the wealthy and hungry vampire elite. Her new job is as the live-in blood escort for the intimidating, demanding, and devilishly handsome Beckham Anderson. He’s everything she expected from a vampire, except for one thing—he won’t feed off her.
Reyna soon discovers that behind Beckham’s brooding, wicked façade lies a unique and complex man. And that, in a dark and divided world, she is more valuable than she ever would have believed.
For with each passing night, Reyna can’t shake the sensation that it’s Beckham who’s afraid of her.
Note: Reyna and Beckham’s story continues in Blood Match.
Thoughts: So I’m going to draw attention to the first line of the blurb for this book – ‘startling new vision of paranormal romance’ – which is pretty damn accurate. Linde has managed to pull out a series that is completely different, original, and –most of all – captivating. I was caught up and invested in this story from the beginning. You never know what is going to happen next, and that keeps you on your toes as a reader. It does focus more on the paranormal, less on the romance part, but mostly be forewarned – it ends on a definite cliffhanger, one that just leaves you hanging and desperate to know where the story leads. Definitely intriguing!
