I began to read this, but didn't realise it was book 2 in the series -it felt i was joining a book without the full background, so i read the first one ( "Bleeding Hearts" reviewed HERE (not yet added!!)) so would strongly recommend to read that one so you know what has happened previously!
A great read!
Picks up pretty soon after "Bleeding Hearts", and flows brilliantly.
Sophie is our main character who discovered she was known as an oracle to Demivamps (vampires who arent quite as evil as full vamps but have the time and urge to "turn" into their evil counterparts.
Sophie had been thrust into the "DV" world by her (now) Ex. Shes tried to distant herself from the supernaturals, but cannot do it! She is back in touch with her Ex's family due to a favour needed and is delighted to also be contacted by another "Sophia" oracle.
A great read, with twists turns and likeable characters. You do relate to them in a great way and some shock twists that even surprise you when not expected.
I would not have found this series had it not been for this tour and i'm really happy to have found it. if you are a fan of vamps/weres and supernaturals, you'll love this one!
I'm looking forward to the next one to be released!

I got this book from the author, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side!
firstly I would like to thank ash Krafton, author of Blood Rush for presenting me with such a great honor of reviewing her work and I can say that I'm glad that I signed up for it.
WOW! That's all that I can say about this book because the author left me speechless with her work. The first book Bleeding Hearts won my heart but the sequel Blood Rush really captured my heart forever.
The story line was unique from the first book but the author added more twist and turns in this sequel and made it even more interesting and totally captivating. I finished the book in just one sitting because I just couldn't give up until the story sadly ended. The splash of humor along with dark scenes and complicated romance geared up the interest in me and I kept on turning the pages as if I was spellbound.
The journey of Sophie in becoming a more profound and powerful oracle was really great and her romance with the brother of her ex was really uncomfortable for her yet it won the readers heart. Sophie was very easy to get connected to and I really enjoyed her character through out the story.
The author took us on a ride of the world of the demi-vampires and I really enjoyed it the second time as well, there were little but significant changes in the concept of vampires and werewolves which will definitely change your viewpoint and if you think that you've had enough of vampires and werewolves then I think you should check this out because it's going to prove you wrong.
I hope my review was helpful but I'm not giving any spoilers because they just spoil your read. So go on and grab your copy!

My Rating: 4.5
Marek is gone but the family needs Sophie, what does she do? Helps them and gets paid well to do it. Having a stalker who actually was not stalking her but following her for her protection, Sophie meets a young werewolf that needs her help. The demivampires believe that Sophie is their oracle Sophia, which is very rare. So when another Sophia contacts Sophie to help train her in her Sophia duties, she jumps at the chance. It doesn't take long for Sophie to realize she probably made a big mistake with the foreign Sophia. Even with Marek not in her life, she still loves him but when his brother steps in to take care of Sophie and her needs, things really get going.
I could not put this book down, yes I stayed mad a Marek the entire book but I still could not put it down

I was so excited to read this book! And now that I'm finished, I'm a little sad. Now I have to wait until next year for Book 3 in this amazing series!
BLOOD RUSH is the much-anticipated sequel to BLEEDING HEARTS, and I must say, this was even better than the first! Advice columnist and newly appointed spiritual leader of the Demivampires, Sophie Galen, has her hands full in this book. She has her day job to contend with, as well as writing advice to those DV who reach out to her for help. Then she has a stalker who keeps her busy finding new apartments. Not to mention the trouble with her ex and his family, who've basically abandoned her for about a year before this story starts because of their own issues. Sophie is a woman tormented. The pain of abandonment, loneliness, loss and serious insecurity about a position where she's learning as she goes about what's needed to help the DV take a toll on her in this one. And Marek. Oh, Marek... I grieved with Sophie so much I wanted to reach into these pages and give her a hug. Luckily, Rodrian helped out with that a bit. He's Marek's brother, and quickly becoming a favorite character of mine. But despite all that, Sophie is strong. She doesn't let the bad business of her past stop her from doing what she thinks is right. Although she struggles, she's determined to not only help herself, but those around her, even her ex.
Ms. Krafton's writing style is addictive. Quirky and spirited, even during the dark moments, I heard Sophie's distinct voice throughout. From the very first line to the very last paragraph, this is a page-turning read. The depth of these characters drew me quickly into the story and I was reluctant to set this book down to attend to my daily chores, like eating and sleeping. Now that I'm finished, I simply cannot wait for the next book! If you enjoy paranormal with a hint of romance or urban fantasy set in a believable world, then I think this book might be for you!
