Synopsis

A vampire princess. A human. One drop of blood changed their lives forever. 
Vampires had taken everything from Quinn Hogan during the war. She had spent her entire life hiding from them. The last thing Quinn wanted in life was to be matched to one. Each human was required by law to enter the draft. Her name was randomly picked for submitting her blood sample. 
Chances of being chosen? A million to one. 
Luck had never been on her side.  
Quinn matched with a vampire. 
Now she was being shipped off to some random vampire who would probably bleed her dry.
Velika Riskel didn't want a mate. As the warden of Northwest America, there was no time for her to take a mate. When the human arrived, she had planned to release her, but one look into Quinn's hazel eyes and all of that changed. 
Velika and Quinn's relationship was doomed from the start. Velika was a seasoned warrior who wasn't afraid of challenges. The vampire princess was determined to win Quinn's heart, defend her against a rival, and then claim her.

But this author is an adult with, like, 30 books......more

3.5 Stars The story was ok in general, I understand where the author’s heart is, what she’s trying to convey, however, I think the delivery missed the mark (for me). It’s the dialogue that really threw me. It was quite unnatural, stilted and the story came out quite juvenile. The dialogue made me cri......more

Goodreads review by Char on February 19, 2022

Deadly Kiss was a super sexy, sensual, explicit and kickass read. The premise of the story written in the blurb pulled me in faster than if it were a butch/femme romance. I have a thing for helpless humans being taken by powerful immortals. I don't enjoy abuse or torture, I just like that power dyna......more
