The Dangerous Ones by Lauren Blackwood

3.0

The Dangerous Ones is a romantasy set in the historical setting of America's Civil War. There's vampires and saints who have the power to kill them. But are all vampires bad?

Jerusalem and her whole family were enslaved by the vampires. They are brutal, and it's her mission to take revenge. She fights for the North States. To do this, though, she has to train with a vampire, Alexei. Alexei has a history, too, and Jerusalem hates vampires. How does their story progress?

I appreciated the cw and tw that the author included on the first page. The plot and the premise are what attracted me to this book. However, unfortunately, this book fell flat for me. Personally, I think for me, the main character's dialogues didn't work. It was choppy, and keeping track of all the happenings was not easy at all. But again, every book is not for every reader, so these are all my opinions.

Thank you, Wednesday Books and St. Martin's Press for this book.
