Justice is a woman driven. She woke up 10 years ago with no memory and since then she has roamed the country going where the "fates" (a voice she hears and has dubbed thus) compel. It is only been since meeting Ronan that she feels less alone, but can she trust this new BLOOD BOND.
Ronan, is a Sanguinar (vampire) and his people are dying. They depend on the magical blood left behind by an ancient race and it is slowly dwindling away. When Justice saved his life he craved her blood only. It is her face in his dreams. It is she that he feels for. Will this war destroy any chance he has to find happiness with this mystery woman?
I have been away from author Shannon K. Butchers' Sentinel Wars series for a while, but BLOOD BOND drew me right back into this amazing world almost as if I hadn't missed any of the previous books. Justice and Ronan are an intriguing couple, she has no idea who she is or why she is being sent by the voice in her head on so many dangerous missions. I cannot imagine not having any kind of memory or being compelled to do things I don't understand, but that has been Justice's life for 10 years. Ronan is determined to free her, but he might just have personal reasons for wanting her free. He is hoping she will choose him of her own free will. They make an amazing off the charts couple and when answers finally come to Justice, she is free to follow her heart. And, of course, Ronan is that heart's desire.
The fates, the war, and life certainly do draw them back together no matter how much roaming she does. Early in the book, we have a shot up Justice who has rescued a little girl, in danger of dying and it is Ronan who pulls himself out of the lethargy of the day (vampire + daylight = not a good thing) to rescue her. Did I mention that he is a magical healer? He can take the blood he needs to survive and turn it into a magical ability to heal. This certainly is something that comes in great when there is a war on.
If you are looking for a different kind of vampire (with the help of humans and Slayers) vs. demons story line, with a sexy vampire healer, a woman on the run but not knowing why, intrigue, heart-pounding action and a sweet and steamy romance -- then get your hands on BLOOD BOND.
Justice has never known freedom. She woke up ten years ago,
naked and alone with no memory of who or what she was. Since
then, sheβs been a prisoner, compelled by powers she doesnβt
understand. Sheβs roamed the country, doing whatever the
fates demanded of her, good or bad. Completely alone.
Until now.
Ronan is starving to death. Like all the Sanguinar, his
survival depends on finding the dwindling traces of blood
left behind by an ancient, magical race. Weeks ago, Justice
saved his life and since then, itβs been her blood he
craves, her face he dreams about.
As evil closes in on all sides, threatening the only
stronghold the Sentinels have to protect them, Ronan must
find a way to gain Justiceβs trust and free her from the
dark powers that control her. Because if he canβt, the next
person she is compelled to kill may be him.
