OMG this was absolutely spectacular. I do so adore this series. The first book has been my favorite since I started the series. I am completely in love with Lucy and Nicholas. I know there are alot of fans of this couple and it was great to see that the author has finally gotten that point of view from her fans and has indulged us with them in this new chapter of the series. It looks like from the ending that we received, that we will get to see a great deal more of this couple in the next installment. I am utterly elated by this idea. Ms. Alyxander has completely caught us off guard this time however with the ending. She has never left any of the other books with this kind of ending. So I am hoping she doesn't leave us hanging to long for our next installment.
I have come to a conclusion that this series is, in a way, a better version of Twilight. Were Lucy is the new and totally improved Bella. Damn, she is just the bomb. This last book may have just taken first place with me. It was so exciting. The action in this book was such a page turner that I was done way to soon. Keep up the good work Ms. Alyxander and thank you so much for listening to your fans as is so awesomely displayed in this book. Anxiously waiting for the next, twilightsmaggie.....

Bleeding Hearts Drake Chronicles Alyxandra Harvey 9781408814970 Books Reviews

On the series as a whole, spoiler free for any of the books
After finishing this book I kind of had an urge to squeal a little bit. Maybe that was because Alyxandra Harvey left us with a cliffhanger! But it was also because I just love this series so much! I say this in every review of this series, but this is not a series I would have picked up on my own. If it wasn't for other book bloggers I never would have given them a try. But I am so glad I did!
I love seeing the different perspectives and although they are each in first person their personalities are so distinctive that it's easy for me to know who's narrating (you know, if I somehow missed it at the beginning of the chapter where it says). Seeing all the different angles makes this series so good. You see the bad guys turned good, the good guys turned bad, the normal school girl who meets a vampire for the first time, etc. And the books all have constant action but they focus on two people mostly who end up falling for each other. So there's romance and kissing (no more than kissing) but there's just as much action and killing of bad guys. Love it!!

The following contains spoilers for the previous books in the series

This book is about Connor and Christabel. But we got lots of Lucy as well. And that was awesome cause I missed that girl! We actually didn't get a ton of Connor which kind of surprised me. But he was there. The romance seemed a bit on the lighter side for this one, but that's probably cause there just wasn't much room for it there was so much action. I would say that maybe I would have liked more Connor and more romance but it wasn't a big deal, I loved the book the way it is.

Some things are changing in this one. Lucy's parents are back and they now know about vampires (that's not a spoiler, it happens before the book actually starts) but Christabel does not. Lucy is training so she can defend herself and by the end of the book she's made some big decisions because things just aren't working out. Don't worry though, her Nicholas are just fine!

Christabel is a great new character but for some reason I feel like I still don't know her real well. Maybe that's because so much of the story was Lucy's I feel like I just didn't get the chance, but what I saw I really liked. She's a big reader, so I obviously can relate to her that way, but she's been through a lot so she had some hidden strength inside her to deal with stuff when crap hits the fan.

Okay, so I loved this book but Alyx, girl you are torturing us! There is a cliffhanger at the end of this one that will have you screaming. I want the next book NOW!
Source I own a copy of this book.

Note These are my personal opinions. I received no outside person comments or opinions.

Let me first start off by saying that I had a hard time liking these new characters--especially the instalove that occurred between Connor and Christabel. And Lucy was a little whiny. But I loved all the romance between Nicholas and Lucy.

Christabel was a really hard character to like. She had no character development. She was the damsel in distress. And then she gets turned into a vampire. Seriously. Where is our strong female heroine that we've had throughout the last three books?

Plot Summary

Christabel is mistaken for Lucy and kidnapped by the Hel Blar Vampires. They take her hoping it will get the attention of the Drakes and get them a seat on the Council. Well, it gets the attention of one Drake in particular Connor. He rushes off to save her and in the end gets taken as hostage himself.

But all the while, Solage is battling something of her own. She is using humans as blood whores and is totally distant with Lucy--even ordering her out of her house and using her boy friend against her.

My Reaction

I thought this book lagged on in some parts. It was really hard to get through this book. I actually set it aside and read (and finished) another book then returned to this one. With the last three books being so stellar I was expecting the same from this one. However, I was disappointed.

Overall, There are good and bad things about binge reading a series. Good thing is never having to wait for a book. Bad thing is being disappointed like this when expectations are so high.
i loved all the books in this series i was sad to see it end. but the book was in fantastic condition thank you.
I loved this book that I can't wait for the next one to come out and I really mean it.. The series just gets better and better with each addition to the series..
