I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Blood Reaction is the story of Annalice’s nightmare week with a vampire named Asa. The story starts out with Annalice sending her daughter, Ellie, to have a week of fun with Grandma. While Ellie is away, Annalice plans on getting some much needed spring chores done. At the end of the first day, Annalice is attacked/tackled to the ground on her way home from a ride on her favorite horse. She rationalizes away the attack, and makes her way home for dinner. Once home, Annalice still senses all is not well. Sitting in her living room, all of a sudden, she’s not alone. There is a man sitting on the couch next to her. What does he want? How did he get there? Will she survive? Asa, the vampire sitting next to Annalice, attacks taking much of her blood. Asa is a evil vampire that threatens to kill Ellie if Annalice doesn’t cooperate and be his companion for the next week. Annalice agrees and decides to sacrifice herself for her daughter. But something is not quite right. Annalice notices that she’s slowly changing. What’s happening to her? Will she survive this ordeal? Can she defeat Asa?
I loved this book. It is so different than most books that glorify vampires. In this book the vampire is evil. I knew from the author that this wasn’t a romance, however, I kept hoping that Asa could be redeemed. I wanted him to change for Annalice. I loved how strong Annalice was and how she kept her head during this traumatic time. I liked that she was analytical about the changes taking place in her body and was matter of fact about what she had to do to try to survive. I wanted to cry for Annalice’s lost dreams and future with Ellie. I found this book to flow nicely, and it was easy to read. It kept my attention throughout.
