Not as good as the others. I don`t know how to put my finger on it. But this one felt meh and boring.

I received this free eARC novel from NetGalley. This is my honest review.

This has been on my TBR pile for so long, and I'm glad I finally got around to it. I really enjoyed the storyline and seeing the characters change throughout the story was a great character development. The plot was great and kept my attention. I'm glad I got the chance to read this and will be on the lookout for more in the future!

Having enjoyed the Angelbound series by this author I was looking forward to reading some of the Angelbound offspring. This is the first of them that I have read even though It is number 5 in the series. It was easy to read even without reading any of the others and still contains the things I loved from this author. Strong female characters, men who recognise this, a bit of fantasy and plenty of sass. Kaps is a Dragon shifter who hunts nazi vampires, With a touch of the hoarder when it comes to magical objects. Her family has no idea about her true life and think she is somevscrew up who needs protecting. With encouragement from the great M (hello again Myla) She teams up with the human vampire Hunter Mack. Only problem is he sees the real her and loves it, and she may have just become the first dragon to be bonded to a human. Looking forward to reading on in Mack.

So good I could not put it down it had lots of action and some romance mystery and kick butt ladies that turn into dragons . I love this series I can’t wait to read the next one to see how kaps and Mack work it out.

My one reasons that I had to read Kaps. She was unlike the other females of the series. She was for me strong, independent, feisty, headstrong, determined, and most of all she felt vulnerable, hurts, lost, confused. Okay, I know that I said my one reason, but you have to have read the series and had the chance to get familiar with the women/young ladies of Angelbound Offspring series. All the things that I listed that I could see in Kaps were not always there. You had to take a really good look at her. She was the there in her own way. Her ongoing appeal was the way she could carry a banter without batting an eyelash.

I absolutely loved her. She was more without it being right in your face. You had to look a little deeper to appreciate what she had.

I have to say that Mack and the L'Griffe may have bitten off a lot more than they could chew comfortably.

It was fab getting to see past characters and meeting new ones. This will be a really great series when it comes to audio and can be share with more of the masses. My kids hate my version of voice variation. (hint)

After the devastation of losing her sister right in front of her, Kaps goes off the deep end and understandably so. Traveling and singing with a rock band she spends more time hunting for Dragon artifacts than caring about her audience. She's an explosion waiting to happen and boy does it.

Kaps loves fighting the Audax, a group of shape-shifting vampire Nazis and killing vampires and hunting down magical dragon relics all while pretending that she loves rock and roll music to hopefully keep her parents off her back.

If her parents ever find out what she does then she will be locked in the tower of their castle never to see the outside world again. Yeah our little Kaps wears many caps to protect what she loves to do and to keep her parents from worrying about her all the time.

When Kaps draws the attention of the shifter mafia and a price is put on her head a human bounty hunter Mack comes to collect his bounty, Kaps. Mack captures Kaps with a kiss and slaps the magical cuffs on her and whisk her away.

Mack and Kaps both enjoy their little kiss but each have a job to do. Mack’s job is to take Kaps in and collect his bounty while Kaps job is to escape. Kaps has all the confidence in the world that she will escape. First thing she has to do is find a way to remove those magical cuffs though.

Kaps is a fun, fast paced read that will pull you into its depths from the first page until the last. Kaps had a visit from a couple of my favorite characters from the Angelbound Origins, Grandma Myla Lewis known as the Great Scala and her Igni.

I love this Angelbound world and its spin-off worlds. I can’t ever get enough of all these great and amazing characters and this world. Kaps is action packed and so captivating and unpredictable to the point that you will lose all contact with the outside world while you are visiting the Angelbound world.

If I could give the Angelbound world a higher rating than five I definitely would. I can’t wait for the next book in this world. I highly recommend Kaps to all fantasy, paranormal, magical shifter fans with lots of action and a great adventure. One click your copy today!

I didn't realize how long this series was when the publisher/tour company offered it to me. 5 books is a lot for a one book promo. I will buy the series and review it when I have time. They do sound great! I appreciate that they were all gifted to me!

KAPS takes us on a wild adventure of bounty hunting, vampire and demon slaying, talks with the Great M, and finding true rhana. I mean love. Rhana . . . Love . . . You'll have to read the book to understand this language.

I have waited quite a while for this particular installment to the Angelbound Offspring series. Not even joking, if I were a dragon shifter and in a kickass band, I would be Kaps. In another life though. I'm too reserved to actually be her, but I want to be her. Does that make sense . . .

Kaps has to be my new favorite character in the Angelbound world. Don't get me wrong. Myla is still the queen and I love her. Just look at the cover and tell me Kaps is not badass. Because she is and I love her.

I want to thank Xpresso Tours and Monster House Books for the opportunity to be part of this book's release to the world. I received a complimentary copy of this book for my participation in this blog tour. This is my honest, voluntary review.

Sometimes a character gets a brand new chance to tell their story. This is that chance for Kaps! I have not been a super big fan of hers to this point but DANG. It was by design on the part of the author!

Bounty hunting? Vampire Nazis? Rock music? Demons? LOVE?! Come on. Get reading! This series is so good!

As I mentioned on book 1 read from Angelbound Offspring series, this world was new for me. However, I was right, I had lots of nights with no sleep as I had all 5 books in the series available.
They are fun, addictive and amazing.
I can’t wait for book 6, as I paired with book 5 so I need it to have closure on their story.
Review added to books 2-5, as I devoured them with no break in between, not even for review 😃 – they are THAT good!

P.S. Here’s a latte! 😉

this was a lot of fun to read, I love getting to know Kaps as we were introduced to her siste Zinnia. Ms. Bauer is always able to make reading her books fun and I'm glad that Kaps book was just as fun.

I always enjoy this author; however, she had done a little to good of a job making me dislike Kaps. However, since I like the world and the other characters I decided to read this one. Once again, she doesn't disappoint. I enjoyed the book and look forward to the next.

Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love the character of Kaps from other stories. Christina Bauer took what we already knew of Kaps and added a whole lot more. Some of which I suspected because it is Kaps and it made sense. The tough part I figured for Bauer would be to find a mate for Kaps, but Bauer seemed to do that with ease. I love Mack with Kaps.

Mack is a force unto himself. Mack with Kaps is phenomenal. He is so good for her. He is supportive and lets her do her own thing which is huge. Mack saw her from the very beginning. He believes in her even when her own twin doubts her - which by the way made me not like her anymore. Just saying.

There is a lot of action in this book. I remember reading not too long ago that writing a fight scene is hard. Take note: Bauer kicks butt. It is awesome. Plus she throws in snarky one-liners Buffy style. Love it!

Kaps into her own in this book. The journey is fun and worth it. Bauer makes it an adventure, mystery, and a sneaky romance all in one. Kaps is part of a series, but she can be read as a standalone. If you have started the series yet, that is okay. Start here.

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.

Another great book in the series. I didn't think I'd like this book as much as I did. I was not a Kaps fan, so my expectations were low. God was I wrong these two characters were great. Kaps is nothing like in the previous books. She was smart and loyal and she could kick some ass. Kaps could possibly be my new favourite character,

Mac was open, honest and loyal in return. There is something special about Mac. They make a great team. Oh and Huntress is getting a book with Gage exciting, that was an interesting turn of events.

I can't believe I have caught up with the series and now I have to wait for the conclusion to their story.

** spoiler alert ** I received an ARC of this book from Netgalley and in exchange am giving an honest review. 3.5-4stars.

It is a part of the Offspring Series by Christina Bauer and has the same characters that were introduced in the previous books. I was excited going into this ARC having just read the previous two books (Zinna and Rhodes) and seeing the sneak peak at Kaps in the back. I was intrigued to know more about an artifact hunting dragon shifter - treasure quests - YES Please, Hot Guy on the Dance Floor - Sign me up twice!

So when I started reading and had that preconceived idea turned on its head a little - it took me time to adjust and get into the new rhythm being set. I still enjoyed where Kaps was leading the story, I just wasn't really prepared for Nazi vampires and a secret viglianti. It was good to get inside Kap's head and see how she was dealing with her trauma and splitting herself to be what other people expected. I really enjoyed Mack as a character and the tension between the two of them made me want to scream at the book when it just kept teasing. The ending did what all these books do - it made me want the next one. I get so absorbed into these books and speed through them, they are always an enjoyable read for me.

Confession time! I was actually pretty hesitant to start this book, yeah I know...

Kaps in the previous books was all over the place and not in a good way.
This book though brought it all together in a very devious, sneaky and absolutely Kaps' way :D
There really was much more going on than she let us believe! Mack is a great character and I really can't wait to read more about him and find out who he really is! Oh oh oh and Huntress, yeah, I'm so ready for that inside story! OMG!

I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book and all in all, I really enjoyed it. It was a fun and easy read, great when you don't have a lot of time and you don't want to deal with heavy stuff but still in a world you know and love (not to mention the best demon hunter/great scala popping in with igni screaming at her all the time :D).

I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed Kaps. I dont think there is a book that Christina Bauer has written I haven't . Good storyline, excellent cover Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to review it. 5 stars.

I really enjoyed this and although I love all the Angelbound series, I admit to being a bit hesitant about this one, Kaps wasn’t my favourite or so I thought ! This book totally changed my opinion of Kaps and I love it when an author can show you a new side to a character or take them on a journey that changes your opinion. I have to admit a lot of this was down to Mack (and how I love Mack !) As always this book is full of fun, action, humour, great characters, snarky dialogue and chemistry. Fantastic escapism

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

The 5th book in the Angelbound Offspring series did not disappoint. I was almost devastated to reach the end of this wonderful series, before I realised that a 6th book is due in December of this year. I will be waiting patiently till then!!!
