Felix.
When my sister gets cursed into a coma by a witch coven, I’m forced to pay them blackmail to free her of the curse. I’m a witch without a coven and have no one to help me. So, when my best friend Claire mentions my Gran’s old grimoire, I find answers in the form of blood sweetener potion. I become a feeder to vampires, earning a lot of money because of my sweet tasting blood. But it isn’t until my newest vampire master, Severin, mentions that we’re fated, that I realize playing around with blood could be dangerous. How am I supposed to keep away from one of the oldest vampires when he demands we are meant to be? I can only hope Severin won’t kill me when the potion’s effect wears off.
Severin.
Having finally found my fated, life seems perfect for the first time since I became a vampire. However, the coven who took his sister is way more sinister than we originally thought, and soon we find ourselves at war with the coven. I can only hope my new happiness will last. At least we will not fight them alone. Our allies, family, and friends will be there with us, making sure we all get a happily ever after.
Sweetest Blood is a paranormal standalone, featuring a vampire and a witch destined to be together. It’s filled with found family, magic, and biting. HEA guaranteed.
REVIEW:
This is a really sweet paranormal story about a young witch, Felix, who is being blackmailed when his sister is cursed into a coma and then kidnapped. To make the payments, he enters into blood contracts, which are mostly one year contracts to provide blood to a contracted vampire.
Felix takes things a bit further by sweetening his blood with potions which he thinks is the cause of his new vampire, Severin’s, immediate infatuation. They quickly decide to test this fate bond by eliminating the potion before solidifyng the bond.
There is a lot more to the story behind the blackmailing and Felix’ background and it takes the help of another coven and a pack of werewolves to get to the bottom of everything.
I loved the intricacies of the various relationships involved here and how the lonesome life of Severin and his brother gets turned upside down as their home fills with life again as their small circle and family grows.
This story is on the longer side, although it never really felt that way. Even still, things happen very quickly. Felix and Severin, as well as a few other fated mates, all occur over the span of one to two weeks. I’m not normally a fan of the instalove storylines, but it ends up working here.
This had a lot of interesting facets with the different species, various pairings, etc. I found I really enjoyed this and look forward to seeing more from this author.
