Blood Entwines by Caroline Healy
A dark compelling story of love and its more sinister elements…possession.
In the aftermath of a blood transfusion that saved her life, Kara feels different. Her senses are stronger … she can hear whispered comments not meant for her ears … she can hear the person following her.
When Jack, her stalker, reveals himself and insists that Kara has something that belongs to him, she does her best to avoid him. But he’s determined to talk to her, convinced that they’re linked through the blood she received during her transfusion.
Jack is struggling against a dark and dangerous demon. His body is host to the evil power that wants Kara’s blood and will stop at nothing to get it. If Jack is able to gain control he can warn Kara. But which is stronger, the power of the blood they share or the force for evil. How can Kara help save Jack without risking her own life?

Jennifer’s Review of Blood Entwines
Review (4.25 Stars): I liked this story because it was interesting to read this story from the different character perspectives and I loved the idea of having supernatural abilities after receiving a blood transfusion. Kara was an interesting character for me because after the transfusion, she became a leader instead of just a blind follower. She had an amazing gift and even though she wasn’t sure what all this meant, it made her a stronger person. I would have loved to do some of the things that Kara did to the bully of her school when I was in high school and that made me like Kara all the more. Blood Entwines captured my attention from the first chapter and I found myself finishing this book in one sitting. It was an intriguing paranormal tale that will have you wanting more and I can’t wait to read more from this author.

I’m so glad you enjoyed! Thank you so much for hosting a tour stop!
Your book sounds interesting. Thank you for your giveaway.
I am always looking for something different that has a dark side to it. Though it seems to be hard to find a good quality book with the darker nature that hasn’t been told in some fashion or another. Blood Entwined, sounds like something that I have never read before and am looking forward to reading it.
Sorry about my typo, my computer likes to auto correct. Blood Entwines*, sounds like something that I have never read before and am looking forward to reading it.
The next I need a blood transfusion, I’d better ask the hospital where they get their supply from. 😉
This sounds interesting. I’ll have to add it to my list!
