I make no odds about the fact that this is usually the part of the process when I go into hiding: once my latest book is out of my hands and with the official reviewers. Waiting for that first review to come through is scary, as it’s so tough to predict how a book is going to be received. So when I got word that BLOOD DARK’s first review was posted on NetGalley, the palpitations hit hard and fast. Seconds later, I was squealing with joy.

So a massive thank you to Fiona’s Book Reviews for starting BLOOD DARK the second she got her hands on it, and reviewing it within a couple of days too. Here’s what Fiona had to say (don’t worry it’s brilliantly spoiler-free!):

“Wow wow and wow again! Lindsay has done it again. Just when you think you are starting to figure things out she goes and blows it out the water!

This book takes us back to the beginning, with the very first characters I fell in love with, Caitlin and Kane. Kane was the first paranormal bad boy Lindsay brought us, and the one which has always remained with me as being the one I would love to meet in real life! And yes, I do know he is purely fictional, I’m not that naive! But I can dream can’t I?

This book differs from the others in that it starts to bring together the characters we met in the previous books. Some are coming together to help each other. But there are others who want nothing more than to rid the world of all paranormal beings.

In starting to bring together these characters the author also brings in far more twists and turns to the story, including a few which will surprise and shock fans of the series thus far.

Caitlin really has to dig deep to figure out who she can and can’t trust throughout this story. With her own insecurities, with regards to her relationship, coming to the fore, she also has to work through her feelings for Kane. And, indeed, his feelings for her! Can this pair get through intact, or does fate have other plans for them? For fate, read ‘the author’!

A brilliant addition to an already brilliant series. And once again, a bit of a cliffhanger right at the end. Something the author is really good at giving us, leaving us breathless and desperate for more.

This is, without question, my favourite series of books ever, and I cannot wait to see what the author brings us next.

With huge thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for the chance to read this.”
