Catch Me

Catch me by Parker blue.
A fantastic read with brilliant characters.  I love Val and fang even though he is a dog. I also like ivy who is a new character. Looking forward to next book.  5*.

I am so obsessed with this book, this author, and this whole series. It's got to be one of the funniest, most adventurous, and heartfelt emotional series I've ever read. Val and Fang have become a part of my family I love them so much. I feel for them, and experience what they do when it happens. That's a testament to the fantastic writing of the author. So, the vampire leader is missing, and Val needs to find him. Well, he's more than missing, it's like he vanished, poof, gone. And it's never simple of just finding the vampire leader. Who did it, why, and how are we dealing with the rebelion, and what about Austin, and Shade, and Princess and her pups with Fang. See, there's always so much more that comes into play here. The action is spectacular as always and I am SO PUMPED!!! VAL finally, FINALLY has a good guy to call her own. And loves her for her. I was team Dan for a while, but I never voted for Shade. I have always had a secret crush on Austin though so I'm all in now!! Cowboy you better not fall off that ride before 8 seconds!!

Val is Palladin, she's taking to this new role and how it affects those around her and her own life. Things are finally getting a little better for her, kinda. She is growing, learning, maturing. And even when it's tough, she does the right thing, even if it hurts her.And she has some trustworthy people around her- real friends- now. I love this, especially after her crappy mother tormented her life. And I am not ready for this series to end, so I am PRAYING there is another book coming. I need another one!! 5 EXTRA AWESOME PAWS!!!

Fabulous continuation to the Demon Underground series.

Shade is still devastated by the loss of his sister so, of course, is not making the best decisions. He tries to open a portal to the demon dimension to get her back and that has some unexpected consequences.

There is turmoil in the New Blood Movement as Alejandro is missing and it seems that someone is making lots of new baby vamps to derail the Movement.

Austin continues to prove that he's much better for Val than Shade (although he does have one slightly jackass moment).

We also meet Ivy and it will be nice to see more of her and have a female friend for Val so there's a bit less testosterone.

We get resolution for Shade & Alejandro, but are left hanging on the new vamp situation so hopefully that's addressed in the next book.

These just keep getting better and better!

Vampires, Hellhounds and Demons Oh My!

Val must find the vampire leader. Him being missing and causing all kinds of havoc, if he isn’t restored to power chaos might rule. So, it’s time for Val to put on her big girl panties, pull out all the stops to make it happen.

This has been a very enjoyable series. I really love when action, paranormal aspects and humor a melded into a story and Blue does that marvelously. My only complaint, there have been some open plot issues that still haven’t completely been resolved, I’m looking forward to some closure with them but again it didn’t completely happen yet.

Fun, fast and exciting, this series is evolving nicely. Val has undergone some changes. Not only has grown emotionally and maturity but she beginning to reevaluate herself image, maybe finally seeing what everyone else sees in her.

Ultimately, Catch Me is another high octane adventure and a great urban fantasy read.

The juxtaposition between the Austin and Shade characters demonstrates the difference between a man and a boy and why men make better partners. Parker Blue does a masterful job with these two characters because she doesn't make you hate Shade nor portray him as a bad person, just a typical hot-headed impetuous young male. Even though the book's setting is in a fantasy version of San Antonio, Ms Blue also creates a realistic version of said world. She has very logical explanations for supernatural events which strengthen's the story.

Despite Val's youth she is a thoughtful woman and deeply affected by all the decissions she is forced to make. Through the series, Val has continued her evolution from an angsty teen to a deep woman who feels strongly. It's for these reasons that I love this series.

I love this series. Vampires with magic like mind control, a succubus and incubus here and there, Val as a vampire slayer and more, these stories are always entertaining and busy.

Bell Bridge Books and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you). It is being published today, so you can grab a copy now.

Everything goes to hell when the leader of the "good" vampires goes missing. No one knows where or how he disappeared but they are all willing to work on getting him back. Some more so than others. The longer he's missing, the more one of the lieutenants is pushing to take over the group. Luis is willing to let him stay gone.

Austin, on the other hand, is going to find him and he asks Val to help him. They've been trying to date but it seems each date gets interrupted by rogue vampires. It's hard to be a vampire slayer and trying to get a night off. This is an opportunity for Val to actually spend some time with him, so she says yes. She also wants to save the leader but Austin is more important to her.

There are traitors, vampire attacks, demons to contend with and more. Things take a shift in the story and I can tell the author is setting up for more in the series. That's good, these are enjoyable read. They're not that long, they're exciting and interesting and I find this world fascinating.

I have to admit, though, that my favorite "character" is Fang, the hellhound. If you have one of those on your side, you can do almost anything. I want one.

Just as Val is settling into her job as Paladin for the demon underground she is pulled deep into Vampire politics once again and has to decide if she can find the balance or if she will have to choose a side. I love how she is willing to stand up for what she feels in write whether or not her boss or boyfriend agree, she learns she has has to choose for herself. ***And for her troubles she ends up with even more responsibility then before so check out the book it is a great read.***
