The Search (Book 2 in The Descendant Vampire Series) I actually had to prepare this read and am so happy that I did. Miss Grealis’s debut novel, The Descendant, was a fast paced, impassioned, serious read. Which had me both anticipating and dreading this read. Anticipating, because like I expected, The Search was an emotionally charged, action packed, quick read.  Dreading, because… HOLY BOOK-HANGOVER, BEXMAN!! She answered all the questions left from book 1, then I blinked and it was the climax. Followed by a beautifully crafted ending. Which had me scratching my head wondering, “What the HECK do I read NOW!” Kelley Grealis’s next edition to The Descendant Vampire Series is book 3, The Truth, out sometime this year. No exact ETA, but our girl is crazy busy typing away.  Allison Carmichael is thirsty for blood and hungry for answers. Lured away from her illicit extracurricular activities by news about her kidnapped husband, Allison rejoins her ado...

"Allison, you are in no position to be asking the questions." His eyes traced the shape of my jail cell and then he smirked, making the point that he was the one in control of the situation. "Don't you want out of here so that you can find your husband?"  (Jal speaking to Allison while she's held captive in the jail cell on Rattlesnake Island.) - The Search, book two by Kelley Grealis The goddess in the form of Kelley Grealis is our Halloween Pumpkin Patch feature author today as we reach day twelve.

‘ The Descendant '  by   Kelley Grealis Justine's rating:   4.5 of 5 stars The Descendant’ by Kelley Grealis is not your every day vamp book. But what it is, is easily one of the best written books, I have read in a while. Kelley Grealis’ flow and weaving of the back-story into the current time was very effectively created and developed. ‘The Descendant’ is most definitely a serious read. Be prepared and get yourselves ready for that. There’s absolutely no YA vampire fluff here. Kelley Grealis successfully had me crying before I made it to chapter four, and pissed by chapter nine as I started to figure things out. This really was a rollercoaster of a book that struck a nerve on so many amazing levels. As for the ending - you know I am a stickler for an ending - Kelley Grealis did me proud! She successfully gave me an ending that left me feeling fulfilled with a clear conclusion, while leaving a crack of an opening for more. Bravo! 4.5 fairies!  Goo...
