A Bond Beyond Blood Honest ARC Review:

Jack (Jacqueline ) dedicated the year following her fathers death learning how to slay vampires.
She wanted to kill the vampire who she believed could have saved her father yet chose not to. Vinny, a vampire who offered to train Jack to slay the vampire she was after didn’t realize how he would be affected by Jack’s beauty and tenacity.

Jack suffered a broken heart from the death of her father and her boyfriend’s sudden distance. What she didn’t know was that her boyfriend’s at the time disappeared because he was turned into a vampire.

The vampire that Jack sought to kill returns to Jacks family shop, only to complicate things further.

As with any decent love triangle, there is the angst, the rivalry and some intensity. Honestly, this was spicy, interesting and entertaining to read. If you enjoy Romantasy, fantasy or vampire stories, this is a great addition to your TBR!

Thank you so much Net Galley and Victory Editing for sharing this ARC with me.

So this was fun and I am excited for the sequel all of the characters are fun but i am wishing Elias had more chapters, his story is more interesting. Jackie’s story is basically coping with the fact she’s attracted to multiple vampires after swearing to hate them all. The Story kind of just ended when it seems like the story is finally started so it will be interesting to see where it goes. I need book 2 asap

Thank you for the opportunity to read this! I thoroughly enjoyed it

There wasn’t much to the story in the beginning but that definitely isn’t a bad thing. It starts to build towards the end and has definitely ended on me wanting to read more!
I like how the author didn’t give too much away regarding vinny and what’s going on with his family, it’s definitely intriguing and making me excited for the next book.

If you are looking for SMUTTTT then I would really recommend this book! Honestly, I felt like the plot could have been developed further but if what you want is spice then you can’t go wrong.
Jack is left her father’s butcher shop when he dies as well as a blood bond with a vampire who she has to keep supplying animal blood to. Her grief at the loss of her father, when he could have been saved by this mysterious vampire, means she decides to train to kill him. She falls for her vampire trainer Vinnie, which is when things really start to get interesting. The vampire she is bonded to turns up and is the long missing Vampire King. As does her ex-boyfriend, who is also a vampire. The problem is, she is attracted to all three of them.
Someone how this book manages to be full of spice, a why choose and also a slow burn full of sexual tension. I don’t even know how it’s possible to tick all of those boxes.
If you expect the full dynamic of Jack and her three vampires to be fleshed out in this book then you will be mistaken. There is still plenty left to be explored and developed in the next book!
Overall, some fantastic spice and just enough plot to keep you interested. If you are someone who wants a fantasy world with no plot holes and where everything is fully explained then this might not be the book for you. But if hot vampires and lots of well written spice is for you, then come on in!
Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing me with an ARC for this book.

ARC rating 4 🌟

I originally read the previously released two separate books: the Butcher's Daughter and a Bond Beyond Blood. I really enjoyed the second time around and still loved the characters.

Its a paranormal RH romance with Jack, Vinny, Gannon, and Elias. I really enjoyed the pacing and storyline. And can't wait to read the next one.

Thank you, NetGalley, Victory Editing, and J. Jameson, for sending this eARC for review. All opinions are my own.

I knew picking up this book, that I wasn’t going in for the plot. 🤣 This can definitely be classed as “erotica”.
Jack is a typical erotica heroine in that she meets the traditional beauty standard. I was actually much more interested in Gannon, who offered some humor and background to the story.
The author did a good job with Vinny’s character but I really feel like Elias was left out in the cold.
Long story short, if you prefer your spice vampire style, this one might be for you. However, don’t expect a top-notch plot.

I absolutely loved this book. I believe that I seriously missed out on not finding this author before now. Jackie, Vincenzo, Gannon, and Elias made up the most perfect why choose pairing and I ate it up. I laughed and I cried and I wailed for more. I didn't want the story to end and now I'm depressed. Give me more of this! This is Book 1 and I can't wait for the next one. Sexy vampires in a why choose romance? Box checked!

Jack is our main character who is forced to continue a blood bond that the father had committed to save Jack’s life during child birth. Jack needs to stock animal blood in the butcher shop and have it well stocked once a month for the video with the vampire king Elias. To everyone’s surprise we find out Jack is a female. That was a shocker. Although this complicated things. We meet 2 other vampires throughout the book who are part of Jack’s life from different points of her life.

I think this good is a good start to anyone wanting to start their vampire fantasy reading journey. It has a good mix of drama, action and story. I think we could have had a little more from the cliff hanger but it only gets you to wonder what we should expect from the next book. Maybe more vampires?

Thanks NetGalley for the ARC!

I read this in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down! It has some darker themes but is a fun read with witty banter & humour, and great spice

‘Teenage me squealed at the sight of him.
He lifted his gaze and cocked one eyebrow. "Pink ruffles and Pierce the Veil posters?" His smirk turned into a delicious grin.
"It's an intriguing dichotomy, I'll admit." ‘

‘She loved romance books about sexy male fairies, and to be fair, that was news to me; the only fairy I knew about was Tinkerbell.’

Jack gives up her scholarship because of her father’s cancer diagnosis and returns with a few days left with him. Shes left to run the butcher shop that her dad owns, and unknown to her & her two brothers, has been supplying a certain vampire with animal blood for many years. That’s when she learns that he made a deal with said vampire 21 years ago, and that she must be there to ensure that he gets his payment every month.
Elias, the vampire her dad made a deal with, doesn’t show up when he’s supposed to, and Jack begins training to fight him because she believes he could have saved her father. Vinny, her trainer (who is also a vampire) fell for Jack the second she walked into his gym requesting his help to train to fight a vampire. Despite knowing she will never be strong enough as a human, he trains her for a year, and that’s when Elias shows up again. Oh, and Jacks ex boyfriend Gannon shows up, who was turned into a vampire just months prior to returning in her life.

Now Jack has 3 vampires lusting after her, all while theres some darker plot lines happening in the background.
I fell in love with Vinny & how much he cares for & takes care of Jack. He’s also possessive af and a talker in the sheets & we love that
Elias is a dirty lil smooth talker who made me blush & giggle & kick my feet when he showed up acting all suave
Gannon is growing on me. I’m mad he left Jack when she really needed him. But he’s making up for it by begging on his knees for her ;)

The plot is interesting, and the spice is GOOOOOOD
The book is left on a cliff hanger, and I will definitely be reading book 2 of the Butchers Daughter trilogy whenever it’s released.
