When Blood Calls by J. K. Beck (Terra's Review) & Giveaway

Product Description


Attorney Sara Constantine is thrilled with her promotion—until she finds out that she must now prosecute vampires and werewolves. The first defendant she’ll be trying to put away? Lucius Dragos, the sexy stranger with whom she recently shared an explosive night of ecstasy.


When Lucius kisses a beautiful woman sitting next to him at the bar, he’s hoping only to avoid the perceptive gaze of the man he’s planning to kill. But what starts as a simple kiss ignites into an all-consuming passion. Charged with murder, Luke knows that Sara is determined to see him locked away—unless he can convince her that he’s not a monster. And that might mean making the ultimate sacrifice.


(Terra's Thoughts)  This was one delicious book and a wonderful start to the J. K. Beck name.  Oh my, talk about wanting to have a romp in the dark with a blood sucking stud muffin.  Yowzer!  Hawt is too mild for this book and it has a wild pace that will keep you moving and guessing.

Sara Constantine is plagued by nightmares of vicious, dangerous, murdering beasts due to see her father killed right before her eyes when she was just a child.  Now as an adult she is an attorney for the percussion of those that would harm anyone.  Little does she know though that those things that we are told about as children that go bump in the night are actually as real as you and I.  A promotion in her job takes her into a world that a very select few know about and more dangerous that even the worst serial killer.

Lucius Dragos is about as hot as they come.  Tall, dark, handsome and with an air about him that commands attention and that's before you take into account that he is a vampire.  Sex with this delicious package is tender but wild and hotter than a skillet over the fire.  His one fault is that he doesn't always let the law divvy out the justice because Lucius is not patient when it comes to pay back.

J.K. Beck has given us a beginning to a series that promises top dollar in both romance and action.  A creative imagination as to the creatures of the unknown leaves you scratching your head wondering what else she will throw into upcoming books.  Oh the possibles are wondrous.  For those of you who are literal creatures instead of visual, this book will give you all you lust for and more.  I so cannot wait for the next one coming in late September early October to see who is next in the chain of trouble that is finger licking good.
