Wow!!! Bloodlust took me completely by surprise. I fell in love with the story and the characters. This is one book that I was very sad that ended. The world-building was well crafted and well thought out. I loved that this story had so many different types of creatures in it. There were barbarians, goliaths, trolls, elves, dwarves, humans, wingless dreads, dragons and ogres. Or should I say thee ogre. It had everything. It definitely was a very interesting story that I couldn't put down once I started. Bloodlust was full of action and I mean a lot action. There was also romance, mystery and suspense. I loved how original this book was. I haven't read another book like it so it got huge bonus points from there!!!! Words can't describe how much I enjoyed this book.I fell in love with several characters in this story. I loved Ivy. She was a caring barbarian unlike the others. Ivy actually cared for her people and would stop at nothing to protect them. I loved how stubborn she was. Boy she had a smart mouth. She was also a kick-butt fighter. But she finally met her match when she found Lukor. The banter between Ivy and Lukor was sweet and hilarious all at the same time. I must say Lukor was a hot goliath. Every time he think he had it all figured it, it all changed. He was constantly fighting against his feelings for Ivy. But he changed. The both changed for each other.I really loved the romance between Ivy and Lukor. It didn't take over the whole story, but the story was about their love. Them coming together to possibly start something new. The beginning of their relationship was hilarious. They hated each other and bantered back and forth. The more time they spent together, the more they grew to care for each other. I loved being able to see their relationship grow.Bloodlust was a well written story that kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I couldn't wait to see what happened next. I am glad that Nicole had an epilogue and the end of this book. It was nice to see what happened a year later after what all went down. But now, I am hoping to get a sequel because of that epilogue. I want more!!!! I highly recommend Bloodlust to everyone!!!! This is a story that I would definitely reread.
