Blood Secrets Jeannie Holmes 9780553592689 Books

After two books I'm getting a feeling for the world and I'm not sure I like it. I expected Varik to be a real bad @$$ and he really isn't. This series feels like beat the he'll out of Alex as much as possible. She's a rather weak enforcer. I keep waiting for her to be a capable woman and I'm still waiting.

This book didn't have the same take away from the story as the first one. The story moved better but I don't really understand why things went the way they did. Especially the end of the book. It made no sense at all.

Oh and Tasha really needs to go. She doesn't help the story in any way. I skip through all her stuff. The fact she threw her respect for Alex down the toilet when other people paused her off made no sense.

I don't know if I will continue this series.

Blood Secrets Jeannie Holmes 9780553592689 Books Reviews

In this, the second installment of her Alexandra Sabian Urban Fantasy series, Jeannie Holmes continues the wild adventures of Alexandra Sabian, an FBPI Enforcer who's one kick azz heroine complete with a heart of gold! Whatever the task, Alex has the bravery, determination, and an insurmountable strength of character to go up against anyone and to do whatever it takes in order to get the job done! And, make no mistake; the adventures Alex experiences in Blood Secrets are most definitely not for the faint of heart.

With an impressive education in English, Holmes is not your average debuting author. I believe readers will be truly impressed with her astounding talent for story telling. From solid, well defined foundation and seemingly effortless world-building to a great cast of relatable, likable characters, readers will have no trouble immersing themselves in the trials and tribulations of Alex's life down in Jefferson, Mississippi.

Ok. So I've been pretty clear on the kudos for Jeannie, so let's touch on a few points of which I found noteworthy. First and foremost, I tend to shy away from the "dark" side of any story. From bloody battles to brutal and murderous attacks, I just can't stomach them. Love, love, love Urban Fantasy and kick azz protagonists, but there are some battles so bloody, so viciously brutal and intense that they make me cringe and turn the page. With Blood Secrets , Holmes has upped the ante in comparison to Blood Law and, (without wanting to share too much information on this new release), it suffices to say that the blood, gore, violence and intellectual brutality reaches a whole new level which may leave some of Jeannie's more sensitive readers questioning his or her ability to continue.

While I did struggle a bit through some of the more brutal, (and oh so effectively described), physical violence, there is one scene which literally made my skin crawl with the desire to creep between the pages and take a scalpel to the villain's...eh hem...well, you get the picture! Though not bloody nor a particularly physically violent event, there is one battle that Alex fights in which she is subjected to a brutality that could easily be compared to rape. Though, in many past reading excursions I've been exposed to some pretty brutal and/or sexually violent assaults against women, I've never been quite as affected as I was with this particular emotional event. Well done Jeannie!

While there may be plenty blood, gore, and murderous violence, Holmes hasn't forgotten to keep her readers intrigued on an intellectual and emotional level. With a revealing sub-plot wherein readers learn more about the Sabian family history, Blood Secrets includes a journey of discovery when Alex stumbles upon family secrets which may have been better left in the past.

From scenes rife with intense, dark and disturbing events to a jovial, light hearted comedic banter ever present between Alex and Varik (her love interest), Jeannie has a seemingly effortless ability to tell an "edge of your seat" adventure that is sure to keep readers coming back for more!

Blood Law A Novel
This is the second book in the Alexandra Sabian series and now I'm done. I said in my review of the first book that I like to give a new author two books before I decide if I like them or not.

This is a romantic suspense novel hiding in the urban fantasy genre.

I personally like a review that tells me why I should read or not read a book and doesn't rehash what the product description has already told me. This may be a little more direct than what most reviews are like for this book, but here goes. When I reached the part where a vampire is strangled by jumper cables, found buy others, and is "lucky" to be alive? Doesn't hold up to any vampire legend that I've heard. Holmes vampires are weak in many way and so like humans it's hard to tell the difference.
If your looking for true urban fantasy with dark story lines and fantasy creatures with special powers this is not it.
just like the first you are forced to keep turning the page to figure out what comes next for Alex. I can't wait and really hope there will b another book
I loved how action packed and full of mystery this book was!!! Can't wait for the next installment!! Bravo!! Very creative!
I am so glad I found this book. There was at least one character I wanted to do in the moment I met him and I was anxious for something bad to happen to him. Excellent book. Just finished it last night. Good thing I have the next book ready to go. Alex is wonderful!!!
Non stop page turner! A lot of action, a lot of intense moments that make your greasy race with anxiety wondering what is going to happen next! Can't wait for the next book!
