In Hearts at Stake we read about Lucy and Solange, two friends who are very much alike but very different. Lucy is a human who will do anything to protect her friend, Solange who is a vampire princess. Solange is very special because she is the only female vampire to be born from a vampire family. So she is attracting a lot of male attention, especially Montmarte. At the end of the first book, the old Queen was killed by Solange's mother Helena and now all of a sudden, the Drakes are royalty.

So Blood Feud has the Drakes are trying to get a allegiances with the Hounds (another type of vampire that have two sets of fangs). The hounds send Isabeau, who is the closes thing they have to a vampire princess to check out the Drakes. Isabeau helped save Solange from Montmarte and so the Drakes have invited her to the royal coronation.

Montmarte is a 400 yr. old vampire who wants to make Solange is vampire Queen and the only way to do that is by killing her mother. So the Drakes have upped the security and are on full alert. Isabeau has one thing in common with the Drakes and that is there enemy, Montmarte.

Isabeau, is from the French Revolutionary age and only has revenge on her mind. She is out to kill the one person who turned her, Greyhaven. He is part of Montmarte's group, so she has agreed to attend the coronation in hopes of killing, Greyhaven.

Logan Drake is the fancy dressed Drake, he likes to dress in the frocks and so his father sends him to meet Isabeau thinking that it might make her more at ease. As hard as they try the Drake boys don't make a great first impression on Isabeau and her friends. No matter what happens Logan is not letting Isabeau out of his sight and will do what ever he can to help keep her safe.

Isabeau didn't want to find love she wanted revenge , but maybe the best revenge is to find love.

Blood Feud was a much shorter book but it was packed full of great characters and faced pace fun. I loved Isabeau, she is very strong willed and independent. She is a hound and she was buried alive (as alive as the undead can get anyway) for two hundred years! Now if that is not enough to make you a mad, crazed person bent on revenge I don't know what does..lol. She knows that she can take care of herself, but when Logan comes to protect her she is touched by his act of kindness. Isabeau, is defiantly your kick ass kind of heroine.

Logan is very kind and sweet. He was the only one who didn't stare or gawk at Isabeau because she was different. He seen the beauty through the two sets of fangs and scars all over her arms. He is a very protective type of guy. He tries his best to protect his mother and sister and when Isabeau is in trouble he is willing to go anywhere with her as long as he can protect her. (Okay so I have a soft spot vampires who like to dress up in fancy shirts and frocks..lol)

Though my favorite person in The Drake Chronicles is still Lucy, but it was fun getting to know Isabeau and Logan. I would recommend The Drake Chronicles to anyone who loves vampire stories. If you have read Hearts at Stake then you must get Blood Feud.
