Hello and welcome to the blog tour of BLOOD TYPE by K.A. Linde!
I have my thoughts on the book to share as well as book details, links, teasers, and an excerpt.
Enjoy!
P.S - I freakin' loved this book.
A startling new vision of paranormal romance: When a human ventures into the world of vampires—a decadent milieu of blood-bonds and betrayal—she discovers that not all is what it seems.
For Reyna Carpenter, giving up her body isn’t a choice. It’s survival.
In a civilization laid waste by poverty and desperation, Reyna accepts a high-paying position with the wealthy and hungry vampire elite. Her new job is as the live-in blood escort for the intimidating, demanding, and devilishly handsome Beckham Anderson. He’s everything she expected from a vampire, except for one thing—he won’t feed off her.
Reyna soon discovers that behind Beckham’s brooding, wicked façade lies a unique and complex man. And that, in a dark and divided world, she is more valuable than she ever would have believed.
For with each passing night, Reyna can’t shake the sensation that it’s Beckham who’s afraid of her.
Note: Reyna and Beckham’s story continues in Blood Match.

ebook.
Full-length novel.
Third person, limited to Reyna.
Quite possibly.
There are a couple of characters that don't like hearing the word no...
No, this is book one in a series.
Yes.
No.
Book one in a three book series...
If I answer this, it'd be a spoiler... Or would it?
Is it a spoiler to not answer?
Let's just say yes. No. Maybe. Kind of. No.
Same as above!
Yes.
Oh, there are so many things I could say about this book.
So many things!
But I honestly don't know what to say.
I'm just... Shocked. And have a book hangover.
A serious book hangover...
Ok, here goes!
I loved it.
I loved the concept, I loved the writing style (it was my first KA Linde) and I liked the characters.
The chemistry between Reyna and Beckham was smoking hot.
The pace of the story was just right.
The information teases and setups were gripping. Throughout the book, I had so many suspicions and theories... And I was right on a couple of things! However, there is so much more to come and I cannot wait!
The book was unputdownable and I swear to god I was in a near perpetual state of anxiety throughout the entire thing waiting for something bad to happen, for the other shoe to drop, and for it to all go wrong... And it did!
OMG the ending!!
WHY?
Why did it have to end like that?!
I hate cliffhangers and this was just too much!
I can't take it! I may actually die and I can't die because I need to know what happens!
😭
I think paranormal romance lovers who like their PNR with an edge - this edge being a pseudo-dystopian setting - should definitely read this and fear not on the cliffie! For book two is out soon.
Sexy and sultry... I like it!
That was the moment Beckham appeared in the doorway like a storm cloud.
Reyna straightened in her seat at the expression on his face. He walked across the room like a tightly coiled spring ready to explode.
“Ah Beckham, there you are,” Harrington said.
“Excuse me, William. I need to speak with Reyna. Alone.”
She hastened out of her seat and followed him around the corner. He tugged her straight through the kitchens, out the back door, down a corridor, and into a dead end. Then her back was slammed against the brick wall. His fist connected with the wall behind her, and she felt the wall shudder. Debris floated onto her shoulders.
“You left,” he growled.
“I . . .”
“No.” He pressed his finger to her lips roughly. She stopped breathing and just stared up into his eyes as dark as night. Her body trembled under the feral stare. “You left without me.”
The silence was weighted. All she could do was sit with their bodies nearly touching. His finger on her mouth. Her mind wandering to hellacious places.
“You are my subject. Can you imagine what it was like when I found you missing? When you turned up with three of my kind?” She shook her head minutely. He bared his teeth to her, and she shrank back. “These are meant to drink your blood. To drink you dry until there is nothing left of your body but a dry corpse. We are killers. We don’t hesitate. Just because we’re wearing suits and seem more like you . . . does not mean we are like you. We are not like you. They especially are not like you. The only way you get to the top of Visage is to be fucking ruthless, Reyna. Do you understand?”
“You’re . . . scaring me,” she whispered.
“Good.”
