- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Awesome book! Though I didn't like this one quite as well as Twisted, this one amazed me just the same. The amount of research that Ms. Kane puts into her books is fantastic. It really helps make the story believable because it has such a ring of truth to it. This book delves into the world of art theft. Not anything that I'm familiar with, nor anything that I've read about before. That in itself made this book stand out. Sloane and Derek are interesting characters. Each strong in their own way, yet willing to bend each other's way to make a relationship work. I liked that there wasn't a whole bunch of drama centered around their relationship. Sometimes with the romantic/suspense books you get the whole break-up/get back together thing going. It wasn't necessary in this book, and I think it might have ruined it. They worked together to strengthen their relationship and to solve a case. I actually think it made their characters seem much more real.The ending was perfect. Usually in books with characters that I enjoy, I find myself mad that the book is over and wanting more because I need something more from them. However, this book ended, then went to an epilogue that closed out the stories. While Kane could easily bring these characters back, she wouldn't have to. I really liked how the epilogue put the finishing touches on the whole story.Overall, if this is your genre, you HAVE to read Kane. Whether it's this book, Twisted, or any others, she is a fantastic writer who has a new and devoted follower.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Romance and mystery. It is always nice to read a series in order but I have found this series to be okay for standalone reading.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really enjoyed seeing sloan and derek agin. it kept my interest didnt put down. you were not sure of motives till the end. sloan is exfbi agent derek is FBI. dealt with art thefts,murder,revenge,secrets and love.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When ex-FBI agent Sloane Burbank's mother is attacked in an apparent home invasion, Sloane learns that the FBI--and her lover agent Derek Parker--are investigating a Chinese art theft ring. Sloan soon finds out that her father and his fellow art collectors have long-standing ties to the Chinese art in question and know secrets that may be causing them problems now. CritiqueSequel to Twisted by Andrea Kane, but not necessary to read it first. Sexy and suspenseful, but not as tension-filled as Twisted. Hope there are more books in this series--Sloane does get her job back with the FBI at the end.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5As with Kane's earlier novels, this is a quick paced and well-researched romance thriller.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5From my blogI enjoy the main characters Sloan and Derek. In this one we follow the struggles of them balancing their relationship and busy career work life. I find them to be exciting, genuine and real, how I imagine FBI agents to be. Sloan has to protect her father, his friends and decide how much to share with the man she loves, Derek.Following this investigation was exciting, so many characters, friends, family involved in the storyline. Drawn in Blood is a a great fitting title. The saying 'blood is thicker than water' is taken to the ultimate and at times everyone is a suspect.The Asian crime world was a thrilling ride. High powered affluent art lovers vs the rich art dealers vs the cruel art thieves, all made such an interesting read. Andrea Kane is an author I will definitely read more by, hopefully more about Sloan and Derek. I love the relationship intertwined with the action paced crimes they have to solve. I don't think romance is the place for many thriller books AndreaK has executed it perfectly in my opinion. Great characters, action and the excitement of sitting on the edge of your sit to see how it all ends.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Drawn in Blood is the sequel to Andrea Kane's earlier book [book:Twisted|2029076], although you can easily read and follow Drawn in blood without having read the first. Andrea Kane creates an intricate plot centered on Chinese gangs and art theft. However, I didn't find any surprise twists or unexpected turns in this one. The plot was mostly laid out for the reader from the start. Sloane Burbank, a former FBI agent, along with her boyfriend and FBI Special Agent Derek Parker, had to untangle the lies and secrets in order to find the truth. The story was in these main characters catching up to the bad guys. Andrea Kane's writing is excellent. The characters are well fleshed out and each is unique. While I would have liked a few surprises along the way, the story is well-written and kept me interested.
