3.75 STARS, bonded to this series ★★★✬✩

This book is for you if… you do not expect outrageous things from yet another vampire book and are able to draw on the little details that make this book a nice experience.

⤐ Overall.
You can see it right at the bottom: 4 stars to enjoyability. And it's accurate. I really liked this. Bonded in Blood is the perfect company for a night of painting and a light walk around the neighbourhood. Neither original nor exceptional, this narrative still managed to find it’s way to my feelings in this reading slump I’m in right now. I'm not complaining, just immensely thankful.

Many vampire romances are problematic at best, however, L. Ann managed to create main characters that possess proper morals despite their obvious flaws. Both came from interesting backgrounds - the way they grew past their difficulties and towards each other was the biggest source of entertainment for me.

When the paranormal world lives underground and parallel to the human world with barely any intersections, the world-building is as undemanding as can be, which just added to the effortless character of Bonded in Blood. Fighting the evil forces of the underground involves a very stereotypical arch of suspense with plenty of small fighting scenes and sexy intermezzos until the big-battle-slash-rescue-mission functions as the final showdown.

⤐ What’s happening.
After the one night stand of their lifetime, neither Taz nor Anna expect to see each others' faces ever again - although it does not keep them from cooking up wild fantasies about an near impossible encounter. It is thus highly unexpected but with great pleasure that Taz finds Anna on his doorstep, even though she might be bleeding and only to discover she's the daughter of one of his most trusted advisors, an uncle of sorts.

What follows is a wild chase to contain the threats to his kingdom. And a search for the aspirations both Taz and Anna have towards their romantic future.

Bonded In Blood

I enjoyed this book. I have listed to other books by this author/narrator combo. It takes a little to get into the narrator. However I really liked this book. The dynamic of the characters is great. Can't wait for the next book to come out.

Vampire Society romance

Check out the narration to see if this narrator is for you.

I found this book had really good bits and some badly written bits which distracted from the story, which was good.

The narrator did not suit this book in my opinion. Not being able to read but only listen, I dont know whether the problem was the narration or the writing.

Enjoyable listen

Bonded in blood was a great read. I liked how the story developed and the characters interacted.
This is really worth a listen just for the fact it has an original take on vampires and the politics within the story are well thought out.
I can’t wait for the second book Blood Carousel to come to audible.
The narrator does a fantastic job reading this book.
I like how he doesn’t make Morgan sound too girly.
His voice is so entertaining to listen to.
Very enjoyable!!!

I really liked it

I'm a big PNR fan and am usually really picky, especially with a first book because it's usually filled with world building but I really liked the balance in this book.
