Blood Bond: 1

Written by Helen Hardt

Narrated by John Lane and Lauren Rowe

Vampire Dante Gabriel is starving. What he craves is red gold—human blood. After being held captive as a blood slave to a female vampire for years, he has finally escaped. Unchained at last, he follows his nose to the nearest blood bank to sate his hunger.

ER nurse Erin Hamilton expects just another busy night shift…until she finds a gorgeous stranger vandalizing the hospital blood bank. Though her logic tells her to turn him in, she’s pulled by stronger and unfamiliar emotions to protect the man who seems oddly infatuated with her scent. Chemistry sizzles between them, but Dante, plagued by nightmares of his time in captivity, fears he won’t be able to control himself…especially when he discovers a secret she doesn’t even know she’s hiding.

Reviews for Blood Bond

[NNEAMAKA PAYNE · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Is fine but not quite the story that I hope it is maybe when I read the next part it will make more sense. Helen is truly one of the most incredible, amazing authors I’ve ever had the pleasure of discovering and obsessing over. Yet again, she delivered an amazing start to what seems like it is going to be an intense, incredible, and addictive series! I’ve read my fair share of paranormal romances, and this right here just tops them all! She put a different kind of twist on things and it’s not the same old vampire love story and it’s exactly what I needed! I’d started to stray from paranormal romances and anything vampire-related because after a while it all seems to sound the same. But as Helen does, she throws all the typical expectations of any romance and throws you into something that’ll have you craving more and more of. Hands down the best vampire romance I’ve ever read and I’ve only just started what promises to be an amazing series of books! This is beyond fantastic! From page one I was hooked! Part 1 in the Blood Bond series is flawless! This book will have you on an emotional roller coaster, it’ll have your pulse thumping and squirming in your seat. Helen is known for her suspense and saucy, kinky, and downright dirty plot line and this book delivers that and more!
Dante? Well damn, I’ve just found my next book boyfriend and obsession. Helen has done what she’s known best for and pulled you in to what’s going to be an emotional, heart-wrenching, completely and utterly mind-blowing ride of your life with the story of this character.
Erin? She’s strong, independent and looks after herself, and doesn’t depend on anyone else. This is refreshing because all too often I find some main female characters in romances tend to be helpless young girls, but Erin takes on a heroine role and it’s just perfect!
The chemistry between Dante and Erin is intense and hot as hell and it was amazing to read the way it progresses, and I can’t wait to continue that!
