Blue Blood for Life
by Stacy Eaton
Holy cow, another guy!? How lucky can a girl get?? Seriously now Kristen has had not one, not two, but THREE guys fighting over her! Totally crazy. I remember after I read My Blood Runs Blue (book one in the series) I thought "what on earth is going to happen next?" The first book ended on a good, and what seemed to be a final, note. I was happy with Kristen's choice and I didn't know where the series was going to go next. Well I got my answer with Book 2.
Blue Blood for life picks up a few months after book 1 ended and there are some problems for the love birds. Enter a new guy, and a new villain and you have a whole lot going on. I liked this book even more than the first one. One thing I will note is that there was a lot of recap from the first book. I am not a huge fan of this. I know you want to remind readers what happened in the previous books so they are not coming in at the middle of a story, but I just don't like re-reading stuff I have already read.
I was a little sad to see that Alex was not really in too much of the book, but Jullian is back and so is new guy Trent. I really liked Trent and I was a little disgusted with myself for abandoning the Alex ship as quickly as I did. What on earth is with all these guys? They all seem so nice and good for Kristen that whenever one of them does something for her, I immediately am on their side. Ultimately, I liked Trent a lot more than Alex. I'm not going to tell you how things work out, or who she ends up with. That would take all the fun out of the book. Plus, I have no idea if she will even stay with this person much longer. Who knows- maybe tomorrow another new guy will come into the picture? Haha.
Blue Blood for Life is a fast paced, exciting read. I read it in no time, the pages just fly by. I really like how we get to see the story told from a few different POVs. I especially like seeing how different characters view or felt during the same event. It causes a little overlap but not much. Stacy does not dwell on the same things for each character so the POVs are not too repetitive.
