Bad Blood: A Blood Coven Vampire Novel

By Mari Mancusi

Book Overview

Sunny McDonald is in the ultimate forbidden relationship. Her boyfriend Magnus is a vampire, and the leader of the Blood Coven. And when the Coven decides that Magnus needs a mate to be his co-ruler, Sunny's humanity puts her out of the running. The Coven's chosen candidate is Jane Johnson, a magna cum laude graduate of Oxford University who just happens to look like a vampiric supermodel.

Sunny is suspicious of a Rhodes Scholar who can't answer the most basic poli-sci questions, but Magnus brushes it off as petty jealousy. Still, when the Blood Coven goes to Las Vegas for a vampire convention, Sunny and her twin sister Rayne secretly tag along. And Sunny's not going home before she learns the truth about Jane. Because not everything stays in Vegas--especially bad blood.

Bad Blood

This is my favorite Blood Coven book since BOYS THAT BITE. For some reason I prefer the stories from Sunny's point of view over the ones from sister Rayne point of view even though their good too. In this book Sunny finds herself on a emotional roller coaster as she suspect that Jane of Oxford is a lying conniving back stabber with more up her sleeve that she lets on and a trip to Vegas for the biting ceremony proves that she's right. While Rayne is busy using a fake ID to hit the gambling tables, Sunny is trying to keep her boyfriend while getting to know her new step sister. The character names like Crystal and Stormy fits right in with those of Sunny and Rayne in the series.

Not often you read a book that this good.

No spoiler. Here let just say I never stopped Enjoying this book!It took me 6 hour to read it in 1 sitting. And I never enjoyed a book more I still hurt from laughing.So I will let that slip the book has very funny scenes.And some tears for spice.

I actually liked this book! took so long to finally read it but was worth it i hope to see another book following this one! its great must read!

One of the good series!!

I really love all the Blood Coven books! I really feel like Mari Mancusi is a really great author! When she writes, she captures the reader and it makes you want to read more of her books! Bad Blood is the 4th book of the Blood Coven series. I would suggest any new readers to the series read the first 3 books and then read bad blood! Its just a book for people who love Vampire Academy or Twilight. But I would say this book is way better then the Twilight saga. Give it a try and you fall in love with it like i did! hehe(: You can always check out the blood coven website to read more about the books and the characters!

campy young adult urban fantasy

It is not easy being a seventeen years old high school student especially having a boyfriend who is a thousand years old vampire. Complicating matters for Magnus the vampire head of the Blood Coven and human Sunny McDonald is she does not want to convert while his followers demand he accept a blood mate to co-rule; humans are forbidden. While he conceals his destiny from her, she learns all about it from Rhodes Scholar Oxford University magna cum laude Jane Johnson, the coven's chosen one. Sunny has issues beyond jealousy though that is what Magnus assumes is eating at her. Instead Sunny wonders how someone graduating from prestigious Oxford with honors, knows nothing, even common information, about her school and teachers. Worse she dresses trashy and acts as if the educated are beneath her contempt. Something is not right so when the Coven heads to Vegas for the blood mate convention, Sunny and her vampiric-slayer twin sister Rayne secretly go with them to prove Jayne is a fake before the binding exchange of vows occurs. Sunny is a pure blood normal American teen who has accepted that vampire exist with a calm demeanor even as she is the readers prime escort into a fascinating sub-culture that resides within the greater society. Volunteer blood donors insure the edict of not killing humans is enforced. Sunny is somewhat hurt that Magnus blows away her concerns rejecting the initial circumstantial evidence she provides without listening. She vows to save him anyway and find a mortal teenage male who she could care for. Although campy and amusing, the latest Blood Coven young adult urban fantasy (see Stake That, Girls That Growl and Boys That Bite) is a splendid vampire tale. Harriet Klausner
