Seaton is a vampire that owns a club that caters to vampires and their unusual tastes. He's made a special concoction that he calls "exotics" that cause vampires to get stronger and feel better. It's made his club a hit, but even with all his success, he's a lonely man. All he can think about is his lost love and what might have been. When a mysterious woman shows up in the bar looking like his long lost lover, he can't believe it. Drawn to her in a way he doesn't understand, he walks over to meet her. After his first night with her ends abruptly, all he can do is think about her. When she shows up again, he won't let her go. But Ghislaine has her own secrets to hide…

Blood Songs had a lot going on in the story, and was an entertaining book to read. Told through Seatons' eyes, it had a lot going on in a short amount of time. The characters met and fell in love almost instantly, but I never really felt like they connected in a real way. I found it hard to relate to the characters because I never really got to know Ghislaine. The story seemed to jump around quite a bit; there wasn't a whole lot of build up to the plot. I liked the story line, it had a lot going for it and the two characters could have been very involved. There was some fast and furious sex in this story, as well as a little bit of graphic blood letting during sex. Overall, I thought this had the potential to be a great story, and will keep an eye on this author to see what she comes up with next.
