wow! what a turn!

Good book the narrator is quite good with her voice changes for each person. The story is good keeping you intrigued as it goes. Some things you think are predictable and then you find out nope, it's different. I liked that this had an actual story line not a Vamp porn book.

Wow!!

I'm definitely reading the next book. ...spoilers ahead...
despite the ending I had a hard time wrapping my mind around the idea that she would get back together with him with basically no answers to her questions. With no idea as to what his " "cover" would mean for there future. Their "cover" had no end in site. Even if you call something fake. His goal was to infiltrate for as long as possible. Meghan had even said to Jodi that they didn't have the forces for a substantial raid. So they had A LONG time before they were ready. Which had me wondering how long and far he would take his fake cover. He would have to get married at some point. Which would mean moving in. He only visits rarely as it is. She sat at her brothers wedding and don't tell me it didn't cross her mind about the thought of Becks and Penny's "cover" wedding plans. if the public thought she was buying a dress they would expect a wedding SOON. Fake or not no man I'm in a relationship with would be engaged to another woman even in public eyes only. The end was crazy. moving onto the next book.

ATTN! Before you read book 3 please read this title. Do not finish reading if you don't want details on the next book.

I have several mental disorders so I get super attached to my favorite characters. When Becks died, I was CRUSHED. If you're the type to get attached like myself, don't allow yourself to quit listening to book 3. it's only temporary. I cried myself to sleep after he died. I made myself hold onto hope the next day that he didn't die and continued listening. I'm so glad I did. Don't worry yourself. He's not gone forever.


these are some of the best books I've ever listened to. highly recommend this author. they're amazing.

What a great rollercoaster!!

If I thought book 1 was good, this one is spectacular!! You are taken deeper into the world of Visage, the rebellion and all the cast of characters that basically you don't know who to trust. It's a total guessing game, cat & mouse, high stakes story and Becks & Reyna are ON FIRE!!! And let's not forget the narration... Very well done!! The ending, those last chapters, are a slap in the face, OMG experience! I can't even imagine what is in store for book 3. Looking forward to it.

She is so irritating!!

She is so damn Maddening😖 I'd like to stuff a sock in her mouth, shake her.. I like everyone but her!! Ugh!! Lol!!

HOLY SMOKES PNR AWESOMNESS!!

4.5 Stars

Okay, WOWZER!! I am feeling the heat now between Rayna and Beckham. I can't wait to get to the conclusion of this very different PNR. I read the ebook and now listened to the audiobook and OMG does having someone read it to you make such a difference! This narrator really embodied these characters and I felt the impact of the words the second read through.

This specific video review will be included in the July 2018 wrap-up.

NOT ANOTHER PNR, GREAT VAMPIRE SERIES

I really enjoyed the action and adventure of the story. I really enjoyed the last chapter when R. dresses up like Death as she calls it and the description of the ballroom and severs. It was not a regular PNR with all romance which I am so sick of seeing but has a story line that continues throughout each series with the same characters not continuing changing love interests.. Well done K.A. Linde. The narration was as well great too.

Awesome Series

I thoroughly enjoyed Blood Match, the second book in the Blood Type trilogy. Like the previous book this too ended in a cliff-hanger, which had me quickly searching for the next book.

To recap, Reyna desperate to earn money went to work for Visage as a blood escort. She ended up becoming a permanent blood escort for the enigmatic Beckham Anderson. At the end of book one Reyna found herself in a precarious position. In Blood Match, which picked up where book one left off and we see Reyna being held captive by Beckham’s boss, Harrington, where she was being used solely for her blood because of her rare blood type. Her life with Harrington was literally that of a prison. She had no access to the outside world and she was constantly being poked by needles. Her sanity was hanging by a
thread, however her hope of a reunion with Beckham and her brothers helped to keep her sane.

The story started out slow and gradually picked up the pace leading up to a jaw dropping end. Interesting information came to light regarding Beckham and his role in the Elle the mysterious organization fighting against the vampire hierarchy. I learned so much more about him, which provided a better understanding of his character.

Reyna was no longer the naive person I met in book one. Her experience as a result of her being held captive by Harrington gave her a first-hand experience of harsher side of the vampire world. However, the things that remained the same were her impulsiveness, her ability to ask a million and one questions and her propensity for attracting trouble.

Her relationship with Beckham has blossomed. I love how protective Beckham was towards Reyna, but at the same time allowing her the freedom to be herself. I loved seeing them together.

This installment introduced new characters were brought into the mix and they helped to make things interesting. The story had its share of action and suspense. There were twists that I never saw coming, but the most brutal of all was the ending. It left me in a state of shock. Even as I am writing this review, I keep wondering if it was a plot to trick the enemy. It had to be, there could be no other logical explanation.

Conclusion/Recommendation
Overall, a solid story and one I would recommend to fans of paranormal romance.

Narration
Caitlin Elizabeth continues to narrate the series. She has improved since the first book I loved how she handled the voices for each character. Her voices were distinct and she brought life to the story.

Solid 4 stars

This book wasn’t as good as the first. We get a lot of questions answered but it does end with a major cliffhanger. I got a little annoyed by Reina getting all bent out of shape about her body being used for food....ah hello has anyone heard of breastfeeding??!! I was a walking grocery store for my kid for months! Other than that the plot is interesting and I have to find out how this ends.

Excellent Series

Great story with complex characters. Excellent performance as well. I highly recommend this series for all readers, romance fan or not.
