Like it or not, she’s part of the team… come hell or fiery demon.
Barely a week after a searing wraith battle left me with amped-up supernatural abilities, I’m back to my cover as Essie Shaw, “normal” beat cop. My frostbite-inducing empathic gift and enhanced hearing, I can work with. My combat spell — weak at best — still comes in handy. But it’s the 24/7 glowy eye thing that’s toughest to hide.
When an encounter with a feral vampire nearly kills my partner (déjà vu, anyone?), the chief of police gives me a make-or-break assignment — join the JP team. Yeah, good luck bridging the aching gulf that’s divided us since that near-fatal fight with the wraith. There’s Gideon, who electrifies my soul; Jacob, who commands it; and Kol, who tempts it. Then there’s Marcus with his ferocious, pulse-pounding energy, who left without even a goodbye.
Amid lingering tensions, we investigate who’s creating an army of twisted, insatiable feral vampires. The truth will extract a terrible price from us all — body, magic, and soul.
Destined Blood is the second book in the Nephilim’s Destiny series, an action-packed full-length paranormal romance with four irresistible guys and a kick-ass heroine who doesn’t have to choose.
*************************************************************************************
I’m going through this book like it’s the last thing I’ll ever do and time is running out. Can’t help it. This second installment reels you in from the very beginning up till the very end. The action keeps coming that will leave you holding your breath and some relationships have progressed in between.
I get that it’s complicated, but glad to see Marcus and Essie finally come together in this. I’m still a little unsure at how Jacob fits in for now, but hopefully will be clearer in the next one. Now that Kol’s kind of in on it now too after he saved Essie? Still unsure of that one as well. Gideon is going to be the toughest one and the one full of heartache. Their complicated mating bonds makes me want to cry.
Some questions have risen up in this book and I can’t wait to see if the next book gives us some answers.
