Belle Morte by Bella Higgin
3.0
3.5 Stars
As I have said many times that vampires usually aren’t my thing but I thought this one sounded interesting. I will say that the name Edmond turned me off. Not because it was a little too close to Edward who of course was hugely popular. For me it was because it’s my brother’s middle name.
Vampires are out in the open after their reveal ten years earlier. They have not only come out they have become celebrities living in various “vampire houses” around the world. Humans apply to the houses to become well paid donors. In this book we have the Belle Morte house in the UK.
Renie has just been accepted as a blood donor but she is not the typical “Vladdict”–people who are obsessed with vampires. She is undercover looking for her sister June who disappeared. Her only problem is Edmond who has taken an interest in her.
Renie and Edmond have a great slow-burn, sweet sort of romance. This book was good. Let me say that I enjoyed the world building more than the romance in this one. It felt like it had a heavy Twilight influence and I hate those books.
