Blood & Betrayals by Jeanette Rose, Alexis Rune
5.0

PR Box + eARC gifted by @r0seandstar — THANK YOU for the most gorgeous package ever, I’m so obsessed with everything you included!!

Okay, listen… golden retriever MMCs are not usually my thing. I’m a sucker for the broody, morally grey types. But CONNOR?? Connor made me eat my words. He’s gentle, loyal, fiercely protective, and the way he is with Summer?? I was melting. Constantly.

Also, the stalker subplot?? Creepy. Addictive. Absolutely unhinged. I need to know more, and I’m already impatient for book two. There’s something SO intriguing going on, and I’m dying to connect all the dots.

The pacing was seamless, the story so easy to fly through, and the found family dynamics?? Chef’s kiss. Alice is 100% my new book bestie—chaotic, supportive, hilarious. I want her in every scene forever.

If any of these make you squeal like I did, you need this book in your life:

✨ Supernatural powers
👀 Stalker vibes
💞 First love
🧿 Soul mates
☀️ Grumpy x sunshine
🤝 Friends to lovers
🥹 Found family
🩹 Trauma healing
🥀 Angst 

This book is dark academia with a pulse—it blends magic and emotion so effortlessly. It's moody, atmospheric, and rich with layered characters and secrets. Blood & Betrayals is swoony, twisty, emotional chaos in the best way—and I’m so here for it.
