Gilded Blood, Book 2

By: Rachel Rener

Narrated by: Tara Novie

I keep telling myself things could be worse.

Okay, so my mom's been harboring some hefty family secrets. Big deal.

And, yeah, maybe there are still two or three teensy details about Zayn that I don't know; his backstory, his private life, or his real name, for starters.

Oh, and let's not forget that there's a bloodthirsty, power-hungry, magical mob boss who's due to appear at any moment.

No biggie.

So long as there are no more family bombshells, incubus-related heartbreaks, or unexpected, terrifying journeys into the Fae Realm, I'll be completely fine. Because, as I've already reminded myself at least twelve times since breakfast, there's no way things could possibly get worse.

…right?

Great Story, mostly love narration

I don’t know what it is about me or if it’s just that I notice stupid little things too much but there were a few words that the narrator pronounced weird and once I noticed it, it seemed like the words were said every page!!! The word “forehead” and I can’t remember the other but it was just like a cringe each time it was said. But that doesn’t take away from the fact that I really liked these books so far, I think the characters are awesome and the overbearing Jewish Mom is hilarious.

Spoiler!

My stepmother suggested this series and I'm glad she did. It's super cute and I've suggested it to my book group. It's a fun romp and I listen while I'm on the bus and while I work the overnight shift.

Finally!

Usually it takes ages for the main characters to get together and it's so frustrating. Glad they didn't spend all 4 books doing that.

Loved it!

I’m really enjoying this series. It’s witty, relevant, steamy, imaginative, and fun! Once again, Tara nailed Talia’s voice and character. Really enjoyable. Ended on a cliff hanger. Can’t wait for the 3rd audiobook.

Can’t get enough of this world

I love that this series is so colourful. It’s almost it’s own character. I love watching Talia, Zane and Biscuit in this adventure!

We’re Back, Baby!!!

I was beyond thrilled with the second addition to the Gilded Blood Series.

Talia really came into her own in this one, and the steam was ever so much more steamy! Zane, who I have been told is NOT Henry Cavill (he is in my mind) has a very interesting part to play in this story. Can’t say much, spoilers. Biscuit is LIFE. Somebody give that bird an ALMOND!!!

Ahhhhhh

Rachel has done it again. Am obsessed with this series and this second doesn’t disappoint. Excited to keep reading.

You have been warned!!

Okay, so I don't like to give you spoilers. but the way biskit and has love for almonds and coco were absolutely cute.

But be warned, you need book 3 to start immediately after book 2's damn cliffhanger with Talia's mother.

Furthermore, I say no more. Do yourself the treat and get the series.

Now, heading off to get book 3, because I do not like cliffhangers that are so damn amazing.

Loved the intro to Yiddish, Rachel, it adds a lot more of your bright crystal ornament soul to your books.

Love this series!

Love Zane and Talia and ‘Biscuit’ so much! This series is great- and the reader does an amazing job with the characters !

Hilarious and spicy

Talia, Ms I give no flying FFs but has the biggest heart the world has seen. She reminds me of myself which is why I’m enthralled with this story! Even a short 24 hour break ( the longest 3ish months ever mind you) we are thrown back into the Urban Fantasy realm that surrounds the story of Talia her family secrets and Zayn.

I’m glad to see Talia has grown A LOT as her impulsivity got her into deep sh*t last book but also comical as I’d totally be that naïve.

Her desires for Zayn are strong as ever and he’s a stubborn old fool who NEEDS to give in.

Bravo on the spicy scene😍😍😍, you hit the nail on the head bringing me (and hopefully other) except what we needed in this series to turn the tides to a new level.

BUT HOW DARE YOU AND THAT CLIFFHANGER. Off to listen to book 3.
