Lexi C Foss has very quickly become one of my absolute favourite go to authors, so I've been excitedly waiting for Blood Heart, book three in her fabulous Immortal Curse pnr series. I know now what I'm going to get, a wonderfully written story with depth, detail, characters who grow and develop, twists, turns, revelations and jaw dropping heartfelt moments, tears, red hot passion and humour. This book is no exception, I loved it and devoured it from cover to cover.

Following the events from the previous book, immortal Hydraian elder Jayson Masters (Jay) has been sent to watch and learn the secret of who and what Lizzie Watkins is. She is strictly off limits to him, but he quickly finds he needs to get closer to achieve his goal. She's been brought up as the rich, seemingly spoilt society girl, but he discovers so much more than meets the eye. Her innocence, sadness and sweet nature draws him in to the web of secrets surrounding her. When a dangerous Ichorian from his past takes an interest in both Lizzie and her roommate Stas, Jay and his allies are going to have to be on top of their game to survive what threatens to rip them apart.

I love it when you can hate the bad guys as much as love the good guys (and my heart certainly beats hard for Jay and Lizzie), but here there are so many shades of grey in between the black and white, you never know what to expect next. That's a huge part of why I love Lexi's books, they are not predictable, not for me anyway! Beloved characters are in abundance alongside the despicable and some new, very intriguing ones were introduced into the mix. Questions are answered but oh wow there are a few major new ones that need answering. It's like torture having to wait, but wait I will for the next installment because I absolutely love this series and the raw emotions it draws from me.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. If you love PNR, action, humour, sexiness and a brilliant story that snags your heart and won't let go, I can totally recommend this, but start at book one (Blood Laws) as you wouldn't want to miss a thing.

Oh my days!! This book.....

I've just finished and I honestly don't know what to say except I loved, loved, loved it so much. I never thought another immortal from the amazing world Lexi C Foss has created would sneak into my heart the way my beloved Balthazar has....but, Jayson, you may have stolen a slice.

The whole world that Foss has created is beyond genius. Honestly, I'm in awe of her creativity and imagination. In Blood Heart, we get a proper peek behind the curtain of the foundations she lay in Blood Laws and Forbidden Bonds, and while I wanted to rip the fabric open and beg her to tell me EVERYTHING - RIGHT NOW - I've had a quiet word with myself and am now reveling in the glow of delayed gratification (down B!)

I'll end with a Game of Thrones quote (because I'm a huge fan, and this is my review, so I can lol)....

Winter isn't coming any longer....it's here!

Bring on Angel Bonds. I, for one, cannot wait.

Blood Heart by Lexi Foss, this is the third book in the series and is a standalone although I’d recommend reading the first 2 books so you can get a better idea of what’s going on, this book is a 5 star read.

Lizzie Watkins is a school teacher, her life isn’t the best, she’s an only child but is constantly criticised by her mother. She is roommates with Stas who is gone a lot and she’s feeling a little lonely. When she sets eyes on her hunky new neighbour she starts to feel something for him she’s never really felt before. There’s much more to Lizzie’s life that even she doesn’t know.

Jayson Masters is undercover trying to figure out what Lizzie is, he knows there’s something about her and that they need to figure it out to be able to keep her safe. Jayson is over 3000 years old and in all that time he’s never wanted to settle down with one person until he meets Lizzie.

This Story Is Brilliant!! The characters are hot together, I stayed up half the night reading this book.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book.

Whenever I know that this author is writing another book and especially in the the Immortal Curse series, I get super excited. I can feel my heart pumping and a wide smile brightens my face, but, I always have a fear that I’m not going to enjoy the next book in the series and that it won’t surpass the previous books brilliance.

Take Forbidden Bonds for example. That book for me was like this big beacon that shone down and said ‘now look here, here is an author that can write and write bloody well.’

Forbidden Bonds went far beyond my paltry expectations that NOTHING could surpass it. I feared for all future instalments because to me the author had set the bar too high and I feared that nothing could compete.

I’m ver damned happy to report that I was absolutely wrong and my fear was unjustified. Blood Heart blew Forbidden Bonds out of the water. (Don’t worry Tom, I’m still very much in love with you.)

Blood Heart is a killer and I mean that in the best possible way. We’re introduced to new characters, old characters are brought back and given new life. We have new plot twists and exciting turns. Previous characters personalities are the same but different, I don’t know how to explain it other than in that way.

Just when you think you know the way the authors mind is working, she shifts it so that everything is off kilter. She somehow does a U’ey and travels back and forth down Alice’s rabbit hole that you just don’t know where you are.

I was a little apprehensive when I realised that the main character in this book, Lizzie, (who is Stas best friend) was going to be introduced as a main character because I really didn’t understand where or how she was going to fit into the story, I mean in Blood Laws she’s pretty much a secondary character and I wouldn’t have necessarily thought she really fit as a main character, but she works and obviously is pivotal to the role that has been created for her. Jayson (love interest and immortal) is the perfect guy for her. He has this sweet arrogance to his personality which you can’t help be charmed by and Lizzie is very much charmed by this guy. They have a slow burning chemistry that you can feel at the beginning but that burns with intensity. It’s very compelling to watch it blossom.

As with most PNR’s, the storyline is fraught with tension, passion, action, sexiness, heat, suspense and also includes the camaraderie. Some of the one liners from the characters had me in stitches.

I truly cannot wait for the next instalment but again I now have the same fear as I stated previously in this review. ‘Will I love the next book as much as this book, Blood Heart?’

Experience has proven that’ll be a HELL YEAH!!
