“Fifty Shades of Grey” meets “Sons of Anarchy” in Traci Douglass’s “Blood Bound.” The first book in the Blood Ravagers series, “Blood Bound ” brings us to a world where humans and Otherworlders live side by side but with an uneasy truce.
When her adventurous twin Liz went missing, Anna Frost just cannot stand aside and wait for her sister to reappear. So, she went to the last known place that Liz was sighted. What Anna did not expect was finding bad boy biker Dante very attractive and hard to resist.
Half human, half demon, Dante has a mission that started 500 years ago. Anna was a complication he cannot afford. Yet, the more he pushes her away, the more he wanted her to stay. But, pretty soon, the choice was out of his hands. Dante has to act or he will lose his life, and worse, Anna will also lose hers.
A fast-paced story that can give a Harley-Davidson bike a run for its money, “Blood Bound ” is non-stop action from beginning to end whether Dante & Anna were running for their lives or while they are burning sheets in the bedroom, or dungeon, whichever was nearer.
And because even a small mistake can cost them their lives, there are times when you want to strangle Anna because she was being a brat. But, you still love her because her instincts have always proven right. Then of course, you become invested in Dante’s quest and you are on the edge of your seat because he might die before he can claim victory. You just can’t turn the pages fast enough to know what happens next.
An exciting read from beginning to end. It’s steamy and sexy while also hair-raising and fearsome at the same time. Blood Bound (Blood Ravagers Book 1) is Rated M for Mature due to sex and violence.
Anna Frost had a bad feeling when her twin sister, Liz, told her she’d run off with a member of the notorious Otherworld biker gang, the Blood Ravagers. And her unease skyrockets when her sister subsequently vanishes. The police have no authority and little interest, so Anna decides to take matters into her own hands by infiltrating the group to discover for herself what happened to Liz, where she meets….
Dante, half demon, half human. A mix of two worlds, accepted by neither, he’s had no choice but to learn the hard way how to play whatever side of the fence kept him alive during his nearly 500 years of existence. Now, as second-in-command of the Blood Ravagers biker gang, his survival depends on keeping his humanity a secret. Dante’s ultimate goal is to fulfill the vows he made over two centuries ago to create a world where half-breeds can live in safety and equality.
But when sheltered schoolteacher Anna finds unexpected, white-hot passion in the arms of Dante, will her quest for the truth cost him more than he ever bargained for? Or will they find a way to save Liz – and their love – together?
