Blood Type by K.A. Linde
A startling new vision of paranormal romance: When a human ventures into the world of vampires—a decadent milieu of blood-bonds and betrayal—she discovers that not all is what it seems.
For Reyna Carpenter, giving up her body isn’t a choice. It’s survival.
In a civilization laid waste by poverty and desperation, Reyna accepts a high-paying position with the wealthy and hungry vampire elite. Her new job is as the live-in blood escort for the intimidating, demanding, and devilishly handsome Beckham Anderson. He’s everything she expected from a vampire, except for one thing—he won’t feed off her.
Reyna soon discovers that behind Beckham’s brooding, wicked façade lies a unique and complex man. And that, in a dark and divided world, she is more valuable than she ever would have believed.
For with each passing night, Reyna can’t shake the sensation that it’s Beckham who’s afraid of her.
Note: Reyna and Beckham’s story continues in Blood Match.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow. I mean, wow. I know that the reviews are split when it comes to this book, but holy buckets, i absolutely fell in love with this book. 2018 seems to be the year that paranormal and science fiction romances are coming back full force and delivering something new and fresh, and i for one am all up in that!
K.A. Linde isn't a new author - i've read quite a few of her books by now, namely her Wright Brothers series, and i truly do love her writing style. It's entertaining, captivating and a thrill to really get lost into her stories. While the Wright Brothers series were Contemporary romances, Blood Type was my first paranormal by her and the way that it was delivered - absolutely amazing.
I really wanted to know more. Think of the movie In Time (with Justin Timberlake) and True Blood series (starting at season 7 when the vampires match up with humans to protect them from other infected vampires) - while there were similarities of both movie and series, Blood Type was really different from any other book i may have read in the past. I enjoyed getting to know Reyna and how fiercely loyal she is to her family members and the ones she cares about, but i also enjoyed the nuances of who Beckham is. I'm curious in finding out more about Reyna, why vampires think her blood is special, as well as Beckham's history.
There's just something about these two that draws me in like a moth to a flame - their story is fascinating to the point where i spend entirely too much time reading and not enough on doing the dishes or sleeping. There's no denying the fact that i'll be looking forward to the next instalments to this series in the future because let's face it - i'm hooked on these two and i really need to know what their destiny is.

That was the moment Beckham appeared in the doorway like a storm cloud.
Reyna straightened in her seat at the expression on his face. He walked across the room like a tightly coiled spring ready to explode.
“Ah Beckham, there you are,” Harrington said.
“Excuse me, William. I need to speak with Reyna. Alone.”
She hastened out of her seat and followed him around the corner. He tugged her straight through the kitchens, out the back door, down a corridor, and into a dead end. Then her back was slammed against the brick wall. His fist connected with the wall behind her, and she felt the wall shudder. Debris floated onto her shoulders.
“You left,” he growled.
“I . . .”
“No.” He pressed his finger to her lips roughly. She stopped breathing and just stared up into his eyes as dark as night. Her body trembled under the feral stare. “You left without me.”
The silence was weighted. All she could do was sit with their bodies nearly touching. His finger on her mouth. Her mind wandering to hellacious places.
“You are my subject. Can you imagine what it was like when I found you missing? When you turned up with three of my kind?” She shook her head minutely. He bared his teeth to her, and she shrank back. “These are meant to drink your blood. To drink you dry until there is nothing left of your body but a dry corpse. We are killers. We don’t hesitate. Just because we’re wearing suits and seem more like you . . . does not mean we are like you. We are not like you. They especially are not like you. The only way you get to the top of Visage is to be fucking ruthless, Reyna. Do you understand?”
“You’re . . . scaring me,” she whispered.
“Good.”
Reyna Carpenter and Beckham Anderson return in the exhilarating follow-up to the provocative paranormal romance Blood Type.
