It had been four long years but Izanna Tremayne wanted to finally enjoy Jason Devon, all of him. Though someone is out to destroy them both. Razi, the Overlord, had wanted to crush Izanna for the longest time. Her thought was since she had made Jason a vampire, she was not allowed to touch him in any way. But both of them are so enthralled with each other, they can’t just let the desire they share alone. But will they find it to be worth it even though it could cost them their lives forever?
Ms. Kendall keeps you focused on Izanna and Jason. Her descriptions leave you reaching for cold water. She can write vivid pictures that keep you reading and wanting more. She is an author that knows the power of words and does not mess around with them. Ms. Kendall also lets you get to know the characters and experience their feelings.
Izanna just wants one man only and that is Jason Devon. She considers him her soul mate and everyone else can just deal with it! The air around the two of them is heavy and they do not deny their feelings. Jason can’t believe how forthright Izanna is even though she is reigning Queen of Darkness. He just knows there is more to their feelings and hopes to express all of them to her.
I love reading about vampires and I was immediately drawn to this one. Everyone has a little bit of a different take and Ms. Kendall’s is sure to please. You are drawn into the world from the very first sentence. It is one story that I found compelling and erotic. I hope to read more by this author and can’t wait to see what other worlds she decides to take on and tell her own version.

Review for Blood Price:
Vicki Nelson is trying to start a new life after leaving the Police Force in Toronto. Her first few cases as a private investigator are boring. But when she sees a man being killed, Vicki begins to see wonder what is going on. With the help of a vampire Henry Fitzroy, she hopes to get to the bottom of the case before anymore get killed. Yet with her old partner Mike Celluci getting in the way, she is not sure how much she will be able to do.
Tanya Huff has an amazing writing style. I truly believed everything that was happening. The research she had to do for this book must have been a lot. I really appreciate that the characters don’t just go in headlong. Ms. Huff really knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat. You are not sure if they are going to be able to figure things out in time or not. I loved how she weaved history into the book by making Henry the bastard son of Henry the 8th.
The characters were amazing! They were not all perfect and they had their faults. Yet when it was needed, they all worked together. I really enjoyed Vicki’s spunk. She was a woman who would not let her eyesight get her down and still worked her butt off. Henry was just hot!! It was not that he is a vampire, but that he could really be a help to Vicki and wanted to as well. Occasionally it took some persuading but he finally came along. I found Mike to be the biggest pain. He didn’t want anything to happen to Vicki but was completely blind to what was going on around them until the end of the book. Though knowing him, he still might deny anything can be out there.
I was impressed with how well this story was kept in the first episode of the series Blood Ties. This book is the first in the series and I look forward to reading the rest. I give this book a 5/5 because it kept my attention to the very end.
272 pages/Mystery
Now off to continue reading Deep Storm by Lincoln Child and then three romances. LOL
