Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Bloodshot (Cheshire Red Reports, #1) in Books

Jan 6, 2021

It's taken me forever to read this (I started it in May!), mainly because I like my paranormal books to have a romance subplot in them and this lacked one.

However this still managed to grab my attention, which is why I've persevered instead of giving up.

Admittedly my interest only grew enough for me to not want to put it down once Adrian was introduced around the half-way mark. The fact that Raylene had someone to interact with other than herself and phone-calls with contacts every so often was a big plus for me. I needed to read her bonding with someone because she came across as a bit heartless at times.

Although I liked this, I don't think I'm going to read the second book in the series despite having it in paperback. Not really my sort of thing.

First thing I have to say is the cover really put me off. I expected it to be some sort of paranormal romance, when currently I'm into my Urban Fantasy Romance's, where the romance part doesn't take up most of the story and happens as a sort of product of them being thrown together to fight whatever evil they have to face together. Well, this was more of an Urban Fantasy Romance, thank God.

The world building was very interesting and the Prime's of this world; terrifying. It was like they were missing some integral part of their psyche where they fought killing people who annoyed them was acceptable. But Mad Rogan had some redeemable qualities in the end and I grew to really like him.

I cannot wait to see what happens next with these two.

So this is different to Lilou's other books, as in it isn't paranormal and instead is a contemporary romance.

I really liked the story and if I wasn't so picky with giving 5 stars then this would probably have gotten 5 stars but as I am, I'm giving it a strong four.

I like how Lilou writes her romances. They're well thought out and developed so that although they are short you're left feeling all nice and warm that the couple got their HEA.

The first meeting between them was well written and I had shivers as I felt the connection between Faye and Quinn. That continued to the first sex scene and I was hooked from there.

I grew to like all the characters, apart from the bad guy of course.

Can't wait to read more books by the author!
