Better than most vampire books I've read primarily because it didn't try to over-analyze why vampires are what they are.That said, it did occasionally dip into pseudo-science, and it was of course completely pulpy.C'est la vie. ( )

I loved these books! This series is different from a lot of what I read in the paranormal romance genera because it is unpredictable. All of the books, which are one continuing story, were really steamy with so many twists and turns I was up late all most every night absolutely needing to know what happened next. The entire time I was reading them I was right there with the characters feeling what they felt. Some books make me happy, or sad, or inspired. These books sent me through a plethora of emotions that are not normally aroused from reading. Not only are these books fast paced and riveting to an umteenth degree they are well written. There are 4 books total in this series and you can buy them in a bundle for kindle to save $ if you own one. ( )

Outstanding Author!!! Jennifer Armintrout has sold me to her Blood Ties Series. The Turning was a page turner from the first page on, and I could not put this book down. This is the only book that I have ever encountered that I felt attraction to the villian, and I was torn with emotions of sympathy and fear. Nathan is a totally different story, there is no doubting his character. I find myself frustrated with him for his draw backs with his personal emotions, and see the seamly perfection of the union between himself and Carrie. I will be buying this series for my own personally collection. ( )

I purchased this book on a Friday and wasn't too sure if it would keep my attention...I had to stay in bed on Sunday due to back pain. Well...I finished the book on Sunday and rushed to work on Monday to buy part 2, 3 and 4. It was a fast and fascinating read and I forgot about my pain for several hours! ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 077832298X, Mass Market Paperback)

I'm no coward. I want to make that perfectly clear. But after my life turned into a horror movie, I take fear a lot more seriously now. I finally became Dr. Carrie Ames just eight months ago. Then I was attacked in the hospital morgue by a vampire. Just my luck.

So now I'm a vampire, and it turns out I have a blood tie to the monster who sired me. The tie works like an invisible leash and I'm bound to him no matter what I do. And of course he's one of the most evil vampires on earth. With my sire hell-bent on turning me into a soulless killer and his sworn enemy set to exterminate me, things couldn't get much worse -- except I'm attracted to them both.

Drinking blood, living as an immortal demon and being a pawn between two warring vampire factions isn't exactly how I'd imagined my future. But as my father used to say, the only way to conquer fear is to face it. So that's what I'll do. Fangs bared.
