Review: This is a good book, but it was very hard to read at times.

This book is similar to the novel Familiar by the same author. The protagonist is forced to serve another, stronger character against her will. She is forced into humiliating and painful circumstances in which she has no choice but to participate in. In Blood Slave, the protagonist is punished for a mistake that any of us could make. She is sentenced to be a blood slave to a vampire from 1-3 years. The life expectancy of a blood slave is a few weeks, so it is a virtual death sentence. As you can imagine, her life is not very fun during that time period. This book takes several unexpected turns. Her life as a blood slave routinely goes from livable to hellish and back to livable again. My only real gripe about this book is that the protagonist forgives her vampire master too easily at times. Be aware that this book involves repeated violence and humiliation. That said, I read the entire book in one sitting. It was heartbreaking at times, but I would definitely read this book again.
