Adrian's Bodyguard (Vampires of Vadin #1) by Shelby Rhodes
Adrian's Bodyguard is the first book in the Vampires of Vadin series, and we start off with the vampire King himself, nearly 10,000-year-old Adrian. He survives an assassination attempt, and is more concerned about the hole in the wall, than his safety. Others are more concerned though, and he ends up with a bodyguard that he wants, but doesn't want! Xavier does his best to be professional around Adrian, but the tension between them just makes things hotter. Plus the fact, Xavier can't quite control his impulses to wind Adrian up.

I thoroughly enjoyed this mixture of contemporary and other-realm magic. They have cars, not run on fossil fuels, obviously!, and mobile phones, but magic is also an everyday act. The two joining together was great to read, and I loved it. There were no editing or grammatical errors that disrupted my reading flow, and I loved the dynamic between our two main characters. So many characters I would love to hear about now, first and foremost Asher and Kaiden!!!

Absolutely recommended by me.

What's not to love about this film? A very cool Vampire film and exactly how a Vampire film should be. It still looks great today the effects don't look dated. The Vampires look like how you expect them to. It has some iconic scenes and great dialogue, not to mention funny as well. One of my fave Kiefer Sutherland films in one of his earlier roles. The rest of the young cast have great chemistry. It also has some great songs to cap it off. It simply oozes coolness and class, a true 80's cult classic!

The story fleets between parallel universes and different centuries all having one thing in common vampires. That is in till fate steps in the shape of Jake a former policeman turned P. I , I don't want to say to any more on the story line because it will spoil the pleasure of uncovering the story for other readers

 But what I will say is 'Unknown' by Phil Price has definitely eared a 5 star review from me. The story is well written, intriguing and addictive. But can be a little bit confusing when you first begin to read but all will become clear as you

Grabbed my attention from the get go.
I've always had a strange fascination with vampires so when I found this book I was super excited. The story of Zoey Redbird and her learning how to be different while still trying to remain normal was very interesting to me. It's been a while since ive read it but I love the danger and adventures she goes on. I always felt like I related to her, being a sort of outcast in school and only having a small group of really close friends. I definitely recommend this series!

Couldn't put it down
Absolutely loved this book. Was recommended it by a friend, and I was a little sceptical to start with seeing as it is written for a younger audience, but I was not disappointed! Kept me interested and wanting to see what happens next with every page. Maybe it's the fact that its written for a younger audience that keeps you captivated, the excitement and discovery that keeps you wanting to read more. Trying not to spoil the plot at all, but if you like fantasy and vampires and you allow yourself to get lost in wonder then you will like this book.
