Bound By Blood by Jourdan Lane
3.0
Sadly, this is another reread that doesn't stand the test of time. The writing is still solid, and there's a great plot in the second half of the book. However, I wasn't as sold on the relationship developement. We see Peter and Lucien meet at the bar, share a dance, we see Peter looking for Lucien, some weird astral projection thing, and then we are told that Lucien's been coming ot the bar every night, but we aren't actually shown any of the details.
I've said before, and I'll say it again- this series reads like an Anita Blake slash AU fic. Lucien is just like Jean Claude, a sexy French master vampire, with werewolves as servants and guards, and there is LOTS of sex. Super good, hot, sexy sex, but lots of it. My rating would still be a solid 4, if only the relationship developement had been shown on page, but it's only 3.5 for me now.
