“Cashel Blackthorne has been her kidnapper, her tormentor, her protecter, and her lover. Now he’s shattered them beyond repair.” What a way to end this. I literally could not put this down. Such an emotional rollercoaster. Made me cry. Can’t wait to read Lucas’ story.
FINALLY HEA!!! great story. love this trilogy. Going to read the rest of the books in this world now.
Finally a conclusion to the journey with Cashel and his Olivia. It was hard fought and things go all over the place but glad how things turned out. This has betrayal, love and sacrifice. I love all of Kim’s books and how you see other characters within all of her books. Well done. Aaron and Emma do an amazing job as always. Confession: definitely going back re-listening to other about the characters mentioned.
Blood Heir is the third and final book of Cashel and Olivia’s story, and what an ending it is! After all the twists, turns, secrets, lies, drama, and suspense, I’m off this emotional roller coaster and ready to hop on to the next one! That doesn’t mean that I didn’t enjoy this trilogy (I did, very much!), what I meant to say was that this was such an emotional roller coaster and I’m glad it ended with a HEA- for Cashel and Olivia, at least.
Lucas played a big part in this book, and I sympathized with him in the end. Now I can’t wait to see what happens after Midnight Prince!
Narrators Aaron Shedlock and Emma Wilder continued to deliver an amazing performance, making this audiobook a joy to listen to.
Blood Heir is a contemporary paranormal romance written in dual first-person POV and performed in dual narration. It’s the last book in a trilogy. No cliffhanger.
I received this book at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review.
This is the third book in the Blackthorne Vampires Series, and the final chapter of Cashel and Olivia’s story. This is an amazing paranormal trilogy. You have to listen to this Series in order, otherwise you will miss some important parts. The story continues where the second book left off. The story is well written, complex, fast-paced, and suspenseful. Cashel and Olivia are two soul mates, and they are fantastic together. They share a sizzling chemistry, and a forever and unbreakable love. The storyline is well developed, and filled with mystery, danger and twists and turns. I loved it. I need more of Cashel and Olivia! The narration is outstanding! Aaron Shedlock and Emma Wilder are both on my list of favorite narrators. Having them reading me this amazing Series is wonderful! This Series is addictive, and captivating, and I will definitely listen to this trilogy again. I HIGHLY recommend it. Looking forward to listen to the next chapter in the amazing Blackthorne Vampires World, Midnight Prince, Lucas’s story.
Blood Heir
The Blackthorne Vampires, Book 3
By: K. Loraine
Narrated by: Aaron Shedlock, Emma Wilder
I couldn’t wait for the final chapter of Olivia and Cashel’s story, and now that it’s over I am a little sad! I love these characters and I need more! But in true K. Loraine style, she had me going through a roller coaster of emotions and had my heart completely invested in the outcome of this story! Olivia goes through so much to get to her love. My heart was aching as she dealt with Lucas, Logan and Cashel. She is one strong woman, and determined to follow her heart! The twists and turns in this one had my heart shattering and slowly rebuilding. Loraine’s masterful weaving of the story line had me wondering where she was going to take us, and she did not disappoint. Suspense, despair, fear, passion, love, happiness, she wove all the emotions in and let us follow these two to their well deserved happily ever after.
Aaron Shedlock and Emma Wilder finish the trilogy with a powerful performance. This book had so many emotions and so many twists that these talented performers gave their all. Each nuance and inflection led the characters through their turmoil and let us feel the pain, stress, and love. Shedlock is cast perfectly as Cashel, with the strong attitude, and incredible love. Wilder made Olivia so strong, no matter the situation, her feelings were evident and we knew she was going to pull it through. These two compliment each other well and gave us an amazing listen.

OMG, it is the end of Olivia’s and Cashel’s story… This journey has been horrific, sexy, twisted, and freaky all the way around. The story we have read is everything you could want in a series and when you have vampires in it. Olivia is in a predicament right now and only one person seems to be able to help her until Cashel can show back up.
Even though this is the last book do not expect a sweet ending right away. This book will be just as twisted as all the others. Olivia and Cashel will have to fight for their love if it is meant to be.
Olivia and Cashel finally get their chance at being together completely but not before they have way more obstacles to overcome. The second book left me gasping not knowing what was going to happen and the whole time reading this, I was on edge. Theirs is a timeless love and connection that nothing could break, not even being married to someone else. It’s filled with angst, passion, suspense, mystery, and more secrets than I know what to do with. But I was left smiling at the end and with anticipation for Lucas’ story.
I also love that we see Silas BlackthornE and Natalie good from Wicked Thorne and they get in on the action.
I would like to know what happens with Scorcha too.
‘Blood Heir’ is the third and final book to Cashel & Oliver’s Story in The Blackthorne Vampires series written by Kim Loraine / K.Loraine. If you haven’t read the previous books ‘Blood Captive’ and ‘Blood Traitor’, STOP now and go read them. Also it would hurt to go and read the Midnight Coven novella’s ‘Forever Claimed’, ‘Immortal Promise’ and ‘Wicked Thorne’ to meet some of the other characters from the Blackthorn Vampire world.
Every love story has an ending. This is mine.
Cashel Blackthorne has been my kidnapper, my tormentor, my protecter, and my lover.
Now he’s shattered us beyond repair.
He sacrificed his freedom to give me mine, only to have our bond completely broken. I lost him just when I truly found him. I need to bring him back to me, to save him from the fate he set for himself, and most of all, to find a cure.
Since all this began, I’ve been their prey, but the tables have turned and this time, I’m the hunter. The Blackthorne vampires won’t take anything from me again.
Holy-Freaking-Moly what a conclusion for Cashel and Oliver, I read this in one sitting it was so addictive and entrancing, I was completely hooked. This series has been so fantastic from the very beginning and I am now sad that it is finished, I want no NEED more, I’m not ready for it to be over. Once again Kim has given us a book filled with drama, suspense, heartache, betrayal, love, secrets, death and blood. I am utterly speechless when it comes to this book, I don’t know what to write that can do it justice.
I am so glad there is a HEA for this book. After all the trouble, heartache, misery and separation the main characters have had to endure. That a HEA is the least that they deserve, I really hope to see more for them in the future to see how life is treating them.
Another excellent job Kim and can’t wait to see what you have next in store for us with Lucas.
Only the beginning
My heart is lying shattered while my soul is rejoicing
What an ending ? Beginning? Happy for the moment?
Seriously though this is the third book in the series and you will be lost if you haven’t read the prior ones. Even though this trilogy concentrated on Cash and his little bird it is also the beginning of what I believe will be a wonderfully twisted and suspenseful series.
There are too many unanswered questions at this point.
Twists that we have only seen the first helix of.
From the start of the series, this has been a bit of an up and down emotional roller coaster for me. I loathed Cash while at the same time I felt there was some good in him if he could just pull his head out long enough to see the light. As we came in to book three I was at a loss as to how this would play out. Olivia was the last one standing it seemed but not for long if our Queen had her say. Olivia has occasionally gotten on my nerves and this closing chapter was no different. I get she was trapped between what the heart wanted and what biology demanded. Yet…
She has grown immensely since her original captor I just hope that growth continues
Okay before I forget – OMG!
A couple of twists that the author tossed into the story line took me so far out of the geography I thought we were in – the entire map of the story has changed
Listen carefully to what the wolf says
Listen for what the hunter does not say
Listen to what the witch implies
And…
Lucas, my dear sweet Lucas. Whatever will you do with all your pain ?
