Review: A good start to a new series

The story was interesting enough though a bit slow at times but it did pick up the pace about half way through. I don't usually read a lot of books from just the male POV so this book was a bit different for me but I did enjoy the snarky relationship banter between Jerry and Cass; it provided comic relief at times and added something to this story. A lot of the time this tale was shrouded in mystery as no real explanation was given as to why Jerry's blood was so special and I would have liked more background on his family but maybe there is more to come in the next book. The side effects of the blood seemed too over the top for me, his blood, sweat, tears all caused reactions in vampires and I thought just the blood alone would have been enough without adding everything else to the mix but that is just my personal opinion. Goose and Jerry were the best of friends (every time I hear the name Goose I think of the guy out of Top Gun and that was a good movie) and their loyalty to each other was admirable. Sometimes the flow of the story seemed stilted and certain character's actions seemed a bit out of place at times but overall it was a fun read and I would definitely be interested in reading the next one in the series. A few editing issues but this did not detract from the story too much and I want to thank the author for giving me a copy of this book in return for an honest review.
