Soul to Keep by Rebekah Weatherspoon

This book was a pleasant surprise because I wasn't expecting it to be so fluffy in a lot of scenes since the premise is very angst-inducing.
Going into this book without having read the other two books, I can't say how Jill and Tokyo were in the other books, but I really enjoyed both of their characters. They're more of the unlikable type upon first meeting, but I loved how Weatherspoon fleshed out the characters, especially Jill, whose honesty was blunt and refreshing.
Despite the fact that Jill is seen as the chatty annoying girl, I clicked with her pretty early, from seeing her struggles between the blood bond obligations and her discordance with a lot of the other girls because of her personality. Tokyo was a tougher shell because of her party girl shallow shell she inhibits, but once she dropped that front around Jill, I was sold. They really are so cute together and I loved how you get little hints and scenes where they're being supportive and loyal.
The sub-plot besides the romance was really interesting too, even if it wasn't delved super in depth, and I really think the vampire sorority setup works really nicely.
There was one wild scene the magical clit was pretty unexpected lol and the ending might seem a little tidy, but honestly I adored the dynamic overall between Jill and Tokyo (they're so soft and sweet together) that it didn't really bother me that much.
Side note: I'm a little sad I read this one first because I don't think I can go back and read Ginger's book at all now because of the bias I have since I love Tokyo and Jill so much haha.
