I have zero interest in Ward’s vampire series, but I don’t hold an author’s backlist against them if they want to try something new. This one sounded good, so I got a copy. 😬

—“I’ll be gentle with you,” he says in a low, resonant voice. “What I do for a living won’t be what I bring to the bed, not with you.”
—“Why,” I whisper.
—“I only fight what fights against me.” His scarred dagger hand reaches out, & runs along the hooding as if it is my hair. “And you can’t hurt me.”

‘Though he brought the cold in with him, he makes me think of fire. At the moment, he is banked & contained, but the potential for destruction is never far, & I tell myself that it’s because of this latent threat that my body is aware of every move he makes.’

‘With each house, I pierce the veil of the clapboard walls & see inside. Never have I gone through the front entries or been welcomed as a guest at the meal table—I’m always snuck in the back, brought inside in secret, used for their purposes. After which, I am worse than a stranger. I’m someone they know to their soul & wish they didn’t.’

I liked her older books but her vampire series never worked for me either. Will be looking for your review on this one.

The vamp books I read for vibes alone, if you’re looking for anything else you’ll be disappointed lol
@Ava - I tried the first BDB & just couldn’t take it seriously. Pure vibes is definitely that series’ mojo. 😂@Esther - I like romantasy in theory, but the vast majority is rubbish. Sad. :/ But I keep looking for another romantasy series to follow besides Juliette Cross’ roman dragon trilogy. Hope springs anew with this one, lol.
