Blood Heart

Whenever I know that this author is writing another book and especially in the the Immortal Curse series, I get super excited. I can feel my heart pumping and a wide smile brightens my face, but, I always have a fear that I’m not going to enjoy the next book in the series and that it won’t surpass the previous books brilliance.
Take Forbidden Bonds for example. That book for me was like this big beacon that shone down and said ‘now look here, here is an author that can write and write bloody well.’

Forbidden Bonds went far beyond my paltry expectations that NOTHING could surpass it. I feared for all future instalments because to me the author had set the bar too high and I feared that nothing could compete.

I’m ver damned happy to report that I was absolutely wrong and my fear was unjustified. Blood Heart blew Forbidden Bonds out of the water. (Don’t worry Tom, I’m still very much in love with you.)

Blood Heart is a killer and I mean that in the best possible way. We’re introduced to new characters, old characters are brought back and given new life. We have new plot twists and exciting turns. Previous characters personalities are the same but different, I don’t know how to explain it other than in that way.
Just when you think you know the way the authors mind is working, she shifts it so that everything is off kilter. She somehow does a U’ey and travels back and forth down Alice’s rabbit hole that you just don’t know where you are.

I was a little apprehensive when I realised that the main character in this book, Lizzie, (who is Stas best friend) was going to be introduced as a main character because I really didn’t understand where or how she was going to fit into the story, I mean in Blood Laws she’s pretty much a secondary character and I wouldn’t have necessarily thought she really fit as a main character, but she works and obviously is pivotal to the role that has been created for her. Jayson (love interest and immortal) is the perfect guy for her. He has this sweet arrogance to his personality which you can’t help be charmed by and Lizzie is very much charmed by this guy. They have a slow burning chemistry that you can feel at the beginning but that burns with intensity. It’s very compelling to watch it blossom.

As with most PNR’s, the storyline is fraught with tension, passion, action, sexiness, heat, suspense and also includes the camaraderie. Some of the one liners from the characters had me in stitches.

I truly cannot wait for the next instalment but again I now have the same fear as I stated previously in this review. ‘Will I love the next book as much as this book, Blood Heart?’
Experience has proven that’ll be a HELL YEAH!!

I didn’t think it was possible to improve on the other two books, but this book was outstanding. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. Brilliant! Highly recommended.

Lexi C Foss has very quickly become one of my absolute favourite go to authors, so I've been excitedly waiting for Blood Heart, book three in her fabulous Immortal Curse pnr series. I know now what I'm going to get, a wonderfully written story with depth, detail, characters who grow and develop, twists, turns, revelations and jaw dropping heartfelt moments, tears, red hot passion and humour. This book is no exception, I loved it and devoured it from cover to cover.

Following the events from the previous book, immortal Hydraian elder Jayson Masters (Jay) has been sent to watch and learn the secret of who and what Lizzie Watkins is. She is strictly off limits to him, but he quickly finds he needs to get closer to achieve his goal. She's been brought up as the rich, seemingly spoilt society girl, but he discovers so much more than meets the eye. Her innocence, sadness and sweet nature draws him in to the web of secrets surrounding her. When a dangerous Ichorian from his past takes an interest in both Lizzie and her roommate Stas, Jay and his allies are going to have to be on top of their game to survive what threatens to rip them apart.

I love it when you can hate the bad guys as much as love the good guys (and my heart certainly beats hard for Jay and Lizzie), but here there are so many shades of grey in between the black and white, you never know what to expect next. That's a huge part of why I love Lexi's books, they are not predictable, not for me anyway! Beloved characters are in abundance alongside the despicable and some new, very intriguing ones were introduced into the mix. Questions are answered but oh wow there are a few major new ones that need answering. It's like torture having to wait, but wait I will for the next installment because I absolutely love this series and the raw emotions it draws from me.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. If you love PNR, action, humour, sexiness and a brilliant story that snags your heart and won't let go, I can totally recommend this, but start at book one (Blood Laws) as you wouldn't want to miss a thing.
