Review for 2 book by M. Leighton

My Thoughts: 
The love story was sweet and the plot fun. I like how she combined the two worlds of vampire and angel in an intriguing way. I really cared for the characters and found myself cringing when bad stuff happened to them. Also, I was surprised how blood drinking could be woven into a story and have me except it not only as a normal thing, but a desirable thing. M. Leighton really knows how to play your emotions and make you feel what is going on in the story. I enjoyed it.  
Note: This is a strong PG-13. These two books had bloody scenes and some very steamy make-out sessions (I blushed—literally). It was borderline for my comfort;-)





Sorry the book pics aren't that good.

Blood Like Poison by M. Leighton


Blood Like Poison: For the Love of a Vampire (Blood Like Poison #1)


Like most seventeen year olds, Ridley Heller thought she had her future all planned out. What she wanted most in life was to get out of small town Harker. Her only goal was to keep her mouth shut and her grades high so she could win a cheerleading scholarship to Stanford. But that was before she met Bo.

In Ridley's wildest dreams, she could never have planned for someone like Bo, for a love so intense it left her breathless. No human girl could.

A haunting stranger that watched her from afar, Bo stole Ridley's heart from the moment she laid eyes on him. But he has secrets. Bo's a vampire. Both his past and his present are a danger to Ridley, but the biggest threat is not her blood; it's her heart. He's feeding a thirst for revenge that will cost him his life, and it may already be too late.

The more darkness Ridley uncovers, the more she realizes that her life will never be the same-with or without Bo. Can she sacrifice her future and her heart for someone who has a death wish?

My thoughts:

I really loved Bo. He was dark and mysterious at first and then you get to know him and start to fall in love with him. I enjoyed this book and the twist and conflicts they had to go through. I also felt bad for Ridley and the life she was stuck in. I am really excited to read the next book, because this one left it hanging!!

Note: I rate this PG-13. There are some bloody scenes, but overall it was mild.
