Blood Lust Rising (The Vampire Queen Trilogy, #1) by Fayth Devlin

Book Blurb :

Vampire Queen and Demon son – Together they will wreak havoc and total destruction. Or at least, that’s what the prophecy says. When a sex-seething succubus focuses in on Ella Grey, a half-breed vampire and her Shadow Hunting partner, Micah McGregor, a power is released neither can control or comprehend.

A chain of events is triggered, forcing Ella and Micah down a shadowed path riddled with unrestrained passion, violence and betrayal. The truth of Micah’s demonic origins will reveal a heart-breaking conspiracy within the Shadow Agency that once swore to protect humanity from vampires and demons. Ella and Micah are proof that nothing is as it appears.

Dolce Amore

Review:

Seven years ago, Ella Grey’s lover attempted to turn her into a vampire. And he converted her into the thing she’d been raised to kill.

Attempted was the operative word. I wasn’t human, not any more. But I wasn’t fully a vampire either.

 

She is working now for the Shadow Agency, an organization created five hundred years ago to keep humanity safe and ignorant of vampires and demons.

 

I had proven time and time again that I wasn’t what he or the fucking holier-than-thou Shadow Agency thought I was. There was no gray area in their eyes. A demon, benign or malicious, was a demon. Vampires sired into this life, by choice or not, were the same – dead, malevolent, bloodsucking parasites. It made no difference that my circumstances were…different.

 

Micah McGregor—son of the Shadow Agency’s leader and her partner for the last six months—tries to hide the attraction he feels for her with vicious remarks.

 

We spent our time between physical and verbal sparring matches. We couldn’t agree on anything, from which station to tune the radio to, to which cemetery we’d go hunting in first. We fought about the weather. We fought about the lack of weather. Sometimes we even managed to fight about fighting.

 

You don’t have what it takes to turn me on. Sorry, babe, parasites don’t do it for me.

 

When a powerful demon, Guinevere, with the similar powers of a succubus, comes from another dimension through a portal, Ella tries to save Micah, which only draws the demon’s attention. And Guinevere tells them that that they are part of an antique prophecy, just before hitting them with a dose of lust … which leads to their mating.

 

Drinking blood from Micah changes Ella in a full vampire.

 

With my hair still wet, the brown strands looked black. Against my unnaturally pale skin, my eyes glowed. My black-on-black ensemble completed the vampire goth look.

Maybe I should get a cape and really make an impression. A week ago I’d been unremarkable. Brown hair, brown eyes, average height. There was nothing noteworthy. I wasn’t even charming.

 

Ella soon discovers the queen of the vampires wants her dead because she is heir to the queen’s throne. She is the only vampire with a heartbeat. Not just that, she has to face her sire.

 

I really enjoyed reading this book. The storyline is interesting, and although the characters could have a bit more depth, Ms. Fayth Devlin manages to create a captivating story. I loved her humor, too.

 

Two weeks ago we were about to kill each other, and now we are soul mates.

 

I will definitely wait for the second book from The Vampire Queen’s series. 4 couples.
