The Bloody Ruin Asylum & Taproom

Sam Quinn, Book 7

By: Seana Kelly

Narrated by: Samantha Desz

I'm Sam, the werewolf book nerd owner of The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore & Bar. My husband, Master vampire Clive, has been asked to go to Budapest to interview for a position in the Guild, a council of thirteen vampires who advise the world's Masters. The competition for the recently vacated spot is fierce. I worry about Clive, as it quickly becomes apparent that the last person to hold the position didn't leave voluntarily.

Ever the supportive wife, I'm tagging along. I researched Budapest and had a long itinerary of things to do. That is, I did. When we arrive, we find out that the Guild headquarters is in the ruins of an abandoned insane asylum. Awesome. If there's one thing I love, it's being hounded by mentally unstable Hungarian ghosts.

Let's just say this isn't the romantic getaway I'd been hoping for. With Clive in top secret meetings and a bunch of creepy Renfields skulking around corners, nowhere is safe. I want to help Clive because I know he really wants the job, but the other Guild members are ancient and scary powerful. Between you and me, I thought Vlad would be taller.

Wish us luck! We're going to need it.

Contains mature themes.

This series is an auto-buy for me

Great characters! Fabulous dialogue set within a time I’ve always wanted to visit. Sam and Clive feel like friends and listening to the next installment feels like catching up on old friends exploring new challenges.

Love

The Sam Quinn series is a great love story and wonderful growth of a woman discovering her strengths and worth. If you listen more than once you’ll find many inconsistencies though and I have trouble understanding the character Cadmail’s issues with Sam and how in the world he decides she’s his only answer. It doesn’t make sense

Gripping from start to finish!

This is an awesome series. Sam is a feisty, kind and smart heroine, totally badassed!! Clive is dreamy, I love him too! The performance is extremely good, Samantha Daez rules. Thank you Seana Kelly for gifting the world with this immersive fantasy, I look forward to the next installment 😍
