All of her life Tara Collins was not allowed to live like
other people but the death of her aunt gives her a chance
at a normal life. She turns to Christian Roth to
investigate her background and who her aunt really was
after going through some papers which suggest that her aunt
was living a lie.
Christian is not your normal
investigator, he is a vampire who hunts demons and the
former head of the Order an organization which keep the
supernatural world in check. Christian did not know how
bored he was pretending to be a business man until Tara
enters his life. There is something about her that draws
him and it's not only about wanting her in his bed.
At
first Tara was happy to break each of the rules her aunt
had her living by but as Christian's investigation raises
more questions about not only her identity but her
humanity, she wishes she could go back to ignorance of
what's out there in the world we live in. Finding out that
the head of the demon underworld is out to destroy him and
anyone close to him, Christian must find a way to protect
Tara or make a deal with the devil. When Tara's friend is
abducted due to mistaken identity Christian decides on a
course that will keep her safe but Tara has other idea
which does not include them not being together even if it
means learning how to kill.
Witches, Vampires, Shifter,
and demons oh my! With all of these types of characters
BITTERSWEET BLOOD can't help but be a book bursting with
action and mayhem. All of the characters bring their own
unique personalities to this book with a fresh spin on the
paranormal world.
I was drawn in from the first page and
Ms. Croft's world kept me reading straight through until I
finished. There are many surprises and twist that shocked
and delighted me. The villains were very interesting and
by the end of the book I was just as interested in what
happened to them as well as the good guys. I can't forget
to mention how sexy the hero is and what he teaches the
heroine had me reaching for an icy cold drink to cool me
off. BITTERSWEET BLOOD is my first book by Ms. Croft but it
won't be my
last
Tara Collins just wants to be normal. Everyone else wants her dead. Tara’s eccentric aunt raised her to be fearful of the world and follow the rules. But after her aunt’s death, Tara is ready to take control and experience life for the first time. But she quickly discovers that everything she’s been told is a web of lies. Determined to solve the mystery of who she is truly, she hires private investigator to help her uncover the truth. Christian Roth is more than your average PI. A vampire and ex-demon hunter, Christian lives among the humans, trying to be “normal.” But recently, things seem to be falling apart. There’s a crazed demon hell-bent on revenge hunting him down, and a fae assassin on the loose with an unknown target. And the Order he abandoned desperately needs his help. As the secrets of Tara’s past collide with the problems in Christian’s present, she finds herself fighting her attraction to the dark and mysterious investigator. Falling in love does not fit into her plans at all, but Tara soon learns that some rules are meant to be broken.
Excerpt
There was a noise behind her, and she whirled. Steel shutters slid down over the windows. “You can’t get out,” Christian said softly. “Don’t bother trying.” She glared at him through narrowed eyes. “Neither can you.” “Ah, but I don’t want to. I have everything I want right in here.” He sauntered toward her, circling, sniffing the air. Halting less than a foot from where she stood, he started to unbutton his shirt. He gave up halfway down, ripped it open, and dragged it off his shoulders, throwing it to the floor. “Sex and food.”
