The Blood is Love

Dark Eyes, Book 2

By: Karina Halle

Narrated by: Sofia Willingham

When Lenore Warwick turned twenty-one, she expected lots of bar-hopping, parties with friends, and the occasional hookup. What she got was the realization that she's both a witch and a vampire, and that there are things in this world that want her dead. Thank god she has her enigmatic vampire lover, Absolon Stavig, to help show her the ropes. But while Lenore struggles to fit into her new topsy turvy world, full of blood, sex, and magic, she also has to contend with her messy and complicated love for a vampire who isn't always what he seems.

To make matters worse, her real father, Jeremias, a powerful warlock from the dark side, has professed an interest in her, while Solon's father, the depraved vampire king Skarde, is intent on destroying everything she loves. When Solon and Lenore have to travel to Finland to work alongside Solon's charming and vicious brother, Kaleid, in an attempt to defeat Skarde once and for all, the two of them enter a bloody new world that neither of them are prepared for. Even if their love survives the carnage to come, the chances of them getting out of there alive are slim.

Good thing they like to take their chances.

Contains mature themes.

Mesmerizing

Kept me wanting more. Absolutely magical and dark. Blood is Love kept me on edge rooting for magic, power and love.

Good culmination

The smut was again on point for this type of story. The only annoying thing is when authors have to continuously remind the readers of things that were already explained in the previous book. Although I get why, it just takes lots of time.

addicting story

nothing I loved everything, only thing I would change, I want more books to the series, I need to hear more about the stories I've listened to every book in this series and I love all of them, it makes me cry, jump for joy, make me mad, makes me relieved everything this is the best book series I've ever heard/read

So good!

Love a good sexy vampire love story!! I think it would have been better with a male and female narrator but the narrator did pretty well with many different characters voices.

The Blood is Love picks up shortly after the concluding events of Black Sunshine with Lenore working to process all of the trauma and loss she has experienced with Absolon by her side. The plot was captivating and the romance took unexpected turns that yanked at my heart strings. I loved it all!


🩸I highly recommend this dark vampire to those who enjoy paranormal romance. The Blood is Love and Black Sunshine are both available on Kindle Unlimited! Please check content and trigger warnings
