When I finished reading book 1, A Blood Seduction, I wasn't the biggest fan of Quinn or her VC vamp protector/betrayer Arturo. But, I loved the author's Vamp City. It's eerie, a human hunting ground. Fabulous! Honestly, although I had book two sitting on my shelf, I wasn't drawn to it. But, after reading Jeaniene Frost's blog post regarding A Kiss of Blood (the non-spoilery parts only), I decided I had to give the series another go. I was not disappointed. In fact, after reading the book, I went ...more
