Matters of the Blood by Maria Lima



When you’re not quite sure who you’re going to be, it’s hard to commit to anything.

Kiera isn’t human.  She’s not quite sure what she is yet as she is changing.  When her change is over, she’ll know if she is shapeshifter or some other supernatural being.  She’ll have multiple powers at different times during her change until one is settled on.  Currently, she has an affinity for the dead.  She helps the supernatural die, but she’s also having nightmares that are coming true. 


Adam Walker is a vampire.  He met Kiera years ago in London and they had an instant attraction; one they didn’t pursue.  So when Kiera moves back to Texas, Adam makes plans to purchase and open up a ranch for tourists.  When they run into one another one evening, all the old attraction flares up and this time, they both feel ready to travel down the path of passion.

Someone is killing the animals out by Adam’s ranch and draining them of blood.  The local sheriff feels it may be something satanic, but Kiera doesn’t put much thought into it, as she knows the supernatural will do their hunting.  But when Kiera’s cousin, mortician Morty, ends up dead, she won’t stop until the murderer is apprehended.

MATTERS OF THE BLOOD is a new twist on the paranormal genre.  Rich in paranormal activity, passionate and romantic moments, and a murder to solve is just the icing on the cake.  I’m really looking forward to more of how Kiera’s character evolves with book two, BLOOD BARGAIN.  If you’re looking for something urban fantasy with a touch of romantic suspense, then pick up MATTERS OF THE BLOOD.  Sinfully enjoyable!

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
