BITTER BLOOD is the third book in Cynthia Eden's
breathtaking "Blood and Moonlight" trilogy. Just when you
might have thought all Jane and Aidan would have to worry
about was their changing biology, they are epically
proved wrong. This final installment of Cynthia Eden's
"Blood and Moonlight" series blurs the lines between
vampire and werewolf and features a master tactician
villain whose identity remains hidden until the very end.
I love Cynthia Eden's habit of hiding the bad guy's
identity from both the reader and the main characters,
and thus increasing the suspense to an earth-shattering
degree.
Over and over in BITTER BLOOD, Jane's constant refrain is
that she and Aidan are strongest when they're together.
Whether or not they really are strongest together, who is
trying to divide them and why, are all central questions
in BITTER BLOOD. Jane and Aidan have so many different
obstacles to deal with in BITTER BLOOD. What I love most
is their rock solid faith in each other even when their
world is turned upside down. The intense eroticism in
BITTER BLOOD is, for me, very much connected to the
concept of trust and specifically how much Jane and Aidan
trust each other. When Jane's blood starts affecting
Aidan in dangerous and unexpected ways, it's only Jane
who is able to reach into his soul and connect with the
man she loves, and pull him back from the edge. This
vampire-werewolf love story is epic, delicious, and I
can't get enough.
BITTER BLOOD is a riveting story about the power of love
battling evil intentions. The threats to Aidan and Jane
are many - including her crazy brother, a super villain
intent on world domination, and the struggle to prove
that an alpha werewolf's force of will is stronger than
biology. This "Blood and Moonlight" series is a must-read
for paranormal romance fans, and those who love a little
suspense and excitement thrown in the mix. I can't wait
to see what Cynthia Eden comes up with next to delight
fans!
Some bonds go deeper than blood…they go to the very soul. New Orleans detective Jane Hart is a vampire. She craves blood, has supernatural strength, and when the mood hits her just right, she can grow one killer pair of fangs. She never counted on being a vamp, but she also never counted on falling hard for werewolf alpha Aidan Locke. Now she’s mated to the wolf, and even though she’s living the undead life, Aidan refuses to leave her side. But Jane is being watched, hunted…tested. And each deadly test that she faces puts Jane—and the people she loves—in the path of a determined killer. She has to find out who is setting her up, before it’s too late. Too late for Jane. Too late for Aidan. He claimed her…and she obsessed him. Because now her lover is the one who is changing. Jane’s blood has infected Aidan and the wolf that lives within him is fighting for survival. Each battle…each dark test that their enemy puts in their path…each move slides Aidan closer to the edge. A darkness is growing inside of him. A darkness that is slowly consuming the man he’s been… And leaving only the monster behind. When blood and darkness rule, even mates can be torn apart. In the final book of the BLOOD AND MOONLIGHT trilogy, Jane and Aidan will find out who they can really trust…and who has been waiting to destroy them all along. Are you ready for the end?
