It’s been forty years since the gang was together in Blue Bloods Final Destiny, and many things have changed. Lives have been lost, mates are different, and the breed is on the verge of war. This war isn’t just between the two factions within the vampire race, but now includes the humans who have learned of their existence.With the Mistress, Kristin, at the helm, the tension is growing, and the … growing, and the elders are pushing for a change. The U.S. government wants information on the breed, and Joseph Portage, Kristin’s newest enemy, is lurking in the shadows.
Hugh McMurphy heads a task force that is determined to get the vampire race under control and learn what they can do. When Kristin and Hugh find themselves pulled toward one another, the only option is to make Hugh her human consort.
It’s not until she tastes his blood that she realizes Hugh is more than originally thought, and with Portage’s men wreaking havoc on the town, she realizes that something drastic needs to happen.
Can Kristin and the new gang figure things out before a major transition occurs, or will Kristin and her sister get blindsided by the taste of blood?

By: Stacy Eaton
Narrated by: Alex Black
Exciting and fresh, Stacy Eaton takes us 40 years later to see where the Blue Bloods are! I couldn’t wait to see what happened after Alex’s death and this is just the beginning. Kristin is charge and times are changing. The humans are trying to get information and control over the vampires, and Kristin’s nemesis Joseph Portage is wreaking havoc. With Angelina by her side, and others you will recognize from the first series, the excitement builds. Now Hugh, who works for Homeland Security is on the a task force, and what we find out about him is game changing. Twists, turns, surprises and unbridled passion all happen, leading up to a cliffhanger I wasn’t prepared for! I need to know more! Queuing up book 2 in this action packed story to see what is going to happen next!
Alex Black is back bringing our characters to life. To me he is the Blue Bloods, though sometimes his voice changes were clear for me this time. I do love his energy as the suspense rises and he keeps me entertained the entire time.

Oh boy what a story. I haven’t actually read any of the series yet so must make it a priority. If the other books are as good as this I am in for a ride and a half. I loved the characters and was team Julian, but did actually love the ending of this one. Very highly recommended book.
5 CRANKY STARS
I was thoroughly surprised by this book. It is about Vampires (blue bloods). In the forward, I learned that this is a new series that continues a series that takes place forty years prior. I will personally have to check this out. This story’s main characters are Kristin, the Mistress; Josh, her bodyguard; Angelina, her sister and last, but not least, Hugh, an associate from Homeland Security. Humans have become aware of the Vampires and Hugh’s department is investigating them. He sets up a meeting with the Mistress to find out who they are and what their special talents may be. Naturally, Kristin is not going to divulge this information, but something happens between Kristin and Hugh that neither of them understands. Before you know it, they are meeting several nights a week and they are not just drinking at the bar. Kristin has never allowed anyone into her apartment and now Hugh keeps coming back. There is much dissention among the other Vampires over this and the fact that a war may be coming. The action is nonstop and again, I could not put it down. If you like Vampires, this is a little different so check it out.
OMG this spin off is every bit as good as the original series ( which if you haven’t read then you are really missing out!!)
With this new series we have jumped 40 years into the future and Kristin heads the vampires now which is not an easy job! This is full of action, plot twists and turns, a few surprises and tons of new characters to get to know. It’s also steamy and sexy and leaves on a cliffhanger but I have to say I absolutely loved it and could not put it down! Bring on the next book!
Kristin is book 1 in Stacy Eaton’s new series. I strongly suggest you read her previous series My Blood Runs Blue. It is not necessary however, it will give you the background. Plus its an amazing series as well. This book takes place 40 years after the previous series. So much has happened. You are going to love, love, love the start. I can’t wait for book 2.
What a great continuity to Blue Blood series ! Loved following Kristen and Angelina in their new lives 40 years later ! We can feel Kristen’s longing for those that are gone and how she struggles as the new mistress missing her freedom.
Even thou this new series can be read without the previous one, I strongly recommend to read The Blue Blood Series first to better understand everything Kristen has been thru.
So many secrets and turns of events; it keeps us wondering and excited to see what comes next. Filled with hot, steamy and powerful scenes; a must read !
Kristin’s story continues 40 years later. Kristin has been in charge of the US’s VMF territory since Alex’s death 18 years earlier and things have really changed and not so much for the good for both the vampires and the humans. You don’t have to read the previous books first, but it does help if you did. This book has lots of new characters…some you love and some you love to hate! There’s lots of plot twists, romance, and surprises! Great read, but this is a cliff hanger that will lead you into Hugh’s book!
Kristin is the powerful mistress of her vampires. When urged to find a mate she finds it with Hugh, a human that turns out to be a reborn vampire. The tension builds as these two get first get together until his transition to vampire. But Hugh has a deep buried secret, even one he does not know about and it will shock you. Cool story. I received a complimentary copy and I am voluntarily reviewing.
OMG!! What can I say? First, I am so excited to be back in the Blue Blood world. I love these characters. This is a jump, in the distant future and a lot has happened. Kristen isn’t the same and yet she is. There have been a lot of losses and new trouble to be found. I adore the characters and i am glad to see growth in them. I also love the new cast of characters that are helping to build a new story that stands alone from the first series while still managing to keep a tie for those that have followed it from the beginning.
The twists and turns are genius. I was so focused on the twist that I think i have figured out that I missed the big one coming and I love when an author can take me by surprise.
Love this book and can’t wait for the next one and to see where the journey takes us.
I love this cover. I love this story. Times have drastically changed for Kristin, and she is out to make more changes to bring her people in to the future. I enjoyed how the story unfolded.
