Blood Orange (The Dracula Duet)

Obsessed! The fall book I didn’t know I needed. Retelling of Dracula and a love so eternal! If I were to pick a song for this book it would be “A thousand years”. Read as an audiobook. If I would have read it I would have rated it 4 stars but the voice over actors did an amazing job for that extra star. I’m not a chick lit or mushy kind of girl so rating this with 5 stars means it really impressed me and met my standards.

The book started off slow but it got very interesting! The spice did not disappoint and the love between Val and Mina/ Lucy/ Dahlia is beautiful! I went into the book blink so I didn’t know what to expect but it was amazing. I couldn’t put it down and almost read it in one sitting. I can’t wait to see how book two is going to go since this reincarnated version of herself remembered everything and is not a vampire! That was definitely the biggest plot twist.

What a beautiful, dark, heart captivating retell of Dracula. It will stay with you forever🖤

Had so much potential, which the plot and character development. But all it gave was smut. Good smut, but too much, yk?

Had so much potential, needed to focus on the plot more, and the sex scenes were so dragged out.
