Hero
Second of The Nine Bloodlines
Blythe Ramos left her home planet behind years ago, along with a promising career. She told herself it wasn’t a big loss, Earth was on its deathbed anyway, and the moon was a safer bet since she made an enemy out of Earth’s most notorious supremacist group. Parting ways with her chosen family was another matter. None of it was what she wanted, but it was necessary for survival. The sacrifices were supposed to be worth it.
Unfortunately, driving Blythe off the face of the Earth wasn’t enough for Humans First. They’ve caught up to her at last, and now she’s back in their crosshairs.

But this time, she might not be alone.
In a galaxy designed to polarize the Nocturni species from the humans they’re derived from, no one would expect to find a lone Nocturna in a human compound. Nevertheless, Blythe discovers an unlikely ally in a captive vampire, and despite the despicable circumstances bringing them together, Blythe cannot deny the connection between them. No matter their pasts or the disparities between their species, Blythe and the Nocturna set out to free themselves of their enemy and maybe, just maybe, make a life worth living in the aftermath.

Sapphic space vampires!

The story is captivating. You follow Blythe, the best friend of the previous book's main character, as she figures out who she wants to be through dance, trauma, and love. The author truly captures the spirit of a young woman going through huge life changes while falling in love ❤️
Unfortunately, the voice actor has some hiccups throughout the book. She paused at odd points, mispronounced several words, and some of the accents she used are nearly impossible to understand. This story could benefit from rereading the first 5 chapters at least.
