Blood Magic by Ella Summers
4.0
There's just something about ✨snarky assassins✨, am I right?
Meet Alex our sweet lovely mercenary... And she’s in love with Logan, an assassin #great life decisions
They both have their demons and been to hell. But thats just the way we like them, right ladies?
Blood Magic starts right up after the first book with Alex searching for her father’s killer after 8 years, being stalked by an assassin, and.. oh yeah... trying to save the world by locating the Blood Orb to thwart a supernatural group.
All on a government salary.
Damnnnnn girl
Alex is still the reckless adrenaline junkie that we love who runs into danger without thinking if she sees someone in danger. Ooo those feels though
Alex and Logan relationship went from 0 to 60 and i am absolutely totally okay with it. Overall a great sequel *thank gawd* where events from the first book have consequences and everything is building up to the epic battle showdown.... which will happen when now...???
The chemistry between Logan and Alex literarily were off the charts!! She continues to jump into danger and he just jumps after her and if that isn’t love then I don’t know what is!
His dry wit and her sarcasm also makes some awesome banter that made me laughing on the floor while reading
Naomi is part of the squad now and she is almost as crazy as Alex ... and I love it! I'm predicting she is gonna also have a separate series to keep this world going on which I ain't made about
I wish the editing had been tighter with the *constant* mention of assassins and smart-mouthed mercenaries like okay we get it ...we know their friggen professions by now... Lets have some action please!
One small note about the world-building which has been pretty stellar up to this point... the world itself is clearly established but I hadn't realized how little we know about our characters actual backgrounds.
like there was one scene when Alex kept talking about this Sera and i was like... who the fuck is she?!?!?
Its Alex's goddamn sister.
Because they have such separate storylines, and author tries to keep their events separate *as ya should to keep integrity of each character and story*
But then ... you start thinking about ... you read about Alex almost dying like where the fuck is her family and like NO ONE except Logan gives a shit... realistic? I mean neither is the whole dragon shit but comeee on
So since this series suppose to work in tandem with Sera’s book, I will likely finish out Alex’s series then begin Sera. Apparently Sera is more a prude but equally reckless ?? *shrugs* aiight sure. Guess we will see how that plays out but reading Alex’s POV first has definitely given me a bias since y'all know I much prefer snarky badass to wallflower special snowflake
Overall exciting, fast paced with lots of tasty romance and magic. Hot damn, highly recommend
