Blood Lust by Alexandra Ivy
4.0
Bas & Myst shared one passion-filled afternoon five years ago, and then she slipped away as if she'd never existed. Bas might have thought the entire encounter was only a dream, except for the baby she left him nine months later. The last four years have kept him lamenting the woman that would give up her own child, then disappear. Imagine his surprise when merely days after his daughter is safely returned from a kidnapping, Myst appears at his door. Begrudgingly, Myst explains her need to constantly move, never staying in one place too long, as well as her need to steer clear of little Molly - for her own safety. Bas becomes determined to get to the bottom of Myst's fated destiny, because just as he felt five years ago, Bas cannot allow Myst to disappear from his life again.
The love Bas felt for Myst right from the beginning was all-consuming for him. He was willing to do anything, go anywhere to make sure Myst could be by his and Molly's side. Myst was willing to do anything at all to be certain that Molly and Bas would be safe. It was very nice to see this little family grow together throughout the book.
The only real downside (and it's not really even a downside) to this book was that I figured out what Myst's weapon was quite early in the story, so there really was no big reveal for me. I found it to be quite obvious, but I'd be interested to see if other readers found it to be as glaring as I did.
A big thank-you to NetGalley for providing this ARC to me in exchange for an honest review. I love to be able to continue series' that I began with NetGalley, so thank-you as well for providing all three of the books in this series so far!
