Of Wicked Blood by Olivia Wildenstein
4.0

I accidently spoiled this book for myself and I was damn near an emotional wreck at the end of this book and there wasn't enough book left to rebound from it. While I understand that the cliffhanger work as a hook to the next book in this series. It also left me with a bad taste in my mouth, due to the lack of substantial answers. To the ten million questions that were posed.

I loved Slate from the get go, but Candace took some warming up too.. I'm not sure why but at the beginning I felt very meh towards her. But she did grow on me, and became a character I thoroughly began to enjoy by halfway through the book. What I didn't really enjoy was, how and when explicit language was used along with the randomness of sexually charged narration.

The premise is incredibly interesting, and I did find it enjoyable but I think it would overall be better read once the next book (and possibly the whole series) has been released. Just because of how unsatisfying the ending of this book was.
