I read and reviewed the first book and the novella of this series; I'll try to review Blood of a Red Roses with a new twist, trying to be different! So I'll go with what I loved and what I didn't like!I love this:First of all, this series is amazing, if you're looking for something in between YA and Adult PNR then, you just find your match! The author, Tish Thawer, has developed writing skills and we can all have the proof of it by reading this series! She's using a really personal and professional writing style and I never get bored. There are always enough descriptions about the characters or the environment and the plot is thrilling: everything seems to have a meaning!As usual the characters are more ripping/intense/beautiful always in the right way :)Rose became more and more intriguing by her recent discovery (won't tell!!! :D) and she's struggling between telling the truth to Christian or keep it as a secret. I love to see the main character wondering about good and evil! Rose has a temper, but in this book, we can FEEL her temper!!!Christian is still yummy, sexy, handsome, sweet and caring for Rose but he has to put aside what he care the most and embrace his destiny! (I want Christian) V. So as usual, I'll give my cotton candy man to Christian, who's already mine anyway!We don't get to see/learn more about the rest of Christian ''Crew'' or Family in this book but the Tish Thawer have put the emphasis on something more important and maybe troubling (and yes more exciting!!!). If you have read the two first novels, you don't need to learn more about the other vampires in this family.I fell for the ''bad guys'' in this book, the reader will discover the true nature of Meredith and how she can get what she wants! I love this character and I can't wait to see her face to face with Rose and see who will end up with the victory!Special mention to a new character that wasn't present in the first books but always in our mind: WHAT THE HELL!!!! Yeah, I like to be surprised and this one, I never see it coming! I'm eager to see where the author will lead the readers with this ''new'' character, it's seems that everything is possible!Great ending: open enough to be able to include the third book from this trilogy. Again I was surprise, but in a way (if you have read the first book and the novella, you'll understand my point) it couldn't happen differently. Sometimes the ''bad guy'' has to win! (Ooooh, did I get your attention????) LOLThings that I didn't like:I wanted to know a little bit more about Terrance, what's happening with him. He did appear at the end of the book, but I think that Terrance is a very important character he's not really present in this book.This book is a little short (for me)! I read this one in one sitting (Not a bad thing at all), this story is great, enthralling and more you read it, more you're getting excited and then you want to know more, but it's already the end!!! Tish Thawer, this book should be a 300 pages length! O.O (LOL)The thing is: I can't explain why I don't understand the comportment of Jeremy, Rose's dad, but if I had a daughter, I don't think I'll wait all this time and try to find out what had happened to my little girl? I know she' s almost 21 years old, but I find this difficult to believe that Jeremy didn't want to know/learn at least see if Rose was ok, after the way the first book end....Meredith is a bitch,... Oh no, I like that one! :PThis series worth the reading and the price you'll paid to get your copy, it's a fun, easy read. Well written, filled up with action, bad-ass demons and sexy vampires! You'll want to be a part of this family, but which one will you choose???All I can do is RECOMMEND this book or/and the rest of this series, I almost love everything about this story and what a cover??? You want to read Blood of a Red Rose:  you should read it in order; it's not a stand-alone book from The Rose Trilogy!
