Since I didn't read the other books before I got this book late in the game, I really can't give a sound and fair opinion on this book.

This was the best ending for the books. KA Linde gave us a new twist on a tried trope and did a wonderful job.

For those that don’t know - this is a series so I highly recommend you read in order or you will be lost.

While I loved the first two books and I ecstatic to read the finale, I am sad to say I didn’t love this book and much as the other two. It’s hard to say too much without spoilers. Got the happily ever after and everything was wrapped up nicely. It just felt slightly anticlimactic and not as exciting as the first two. Definitely didn’t hate it but there felt a little let down considered how I couldn’t wait to read this book. Of course still a fan of K.A. Linde!

WHAT a finale. I absolutely loved the first book in this series (Blood Type), and I enjoyed the second book (Blood Match), but this third book (Blood Cure) was something else. THIS is how you end a series!

Reyna and Beckham's story continues in this final novel of the series. I am not going to state too many specifics, but I will say that I loved the development of the story. The overarching plot of the series is fleshed out even more, and wrapped up, in this book. Reyna and Beckham's romance continue in this book, in big ways. I'll spoil one thing: there is a great ending in this book. I was so happy to read the ending, after everything that Reyna and Beckham had been through. I loved seeing Reyna's tenacity and bravery shine through this book, and Beckham's protective, selfless nature as well.

This book is exciting, swoonworthy, sexy, and incredibly intense. If you love paranormal romance, you will definitely want to pick up this series. I've been rereading the series on and off for the last two years - that's how much I enjoy the books!

What a conclusion to a series…who will win? Humans or Vampires?

The Blood Type Series must be read in order. The books feed entirely off each other. Blood Cure starts up exactly where the 2nd book left off and finishes off the series. My feelings are mixed on this ending. I felt like the buildup was HUGE, there was so much more to tell, so much more for Reyna to do yet now that I have finished I feel like there is still more to tell. I almost feel let down at this ending. I devoured the first three books and could not read them fast enough. I raved about them to my fellow vampire lovers and this one is good too it just isn’t as good as the first two.

I am so hooked on the love between Reyna and Beckham. He is a vampire that falls for his blood mate, who ends up being his soul mate. Did I agree with the way he always treats Reyna? No way but he seemed to always do what was best for her whether she saw it that way or not. There was never a time that I doubt that they belonged together. Their love would get them through whatever the world was throwing at them and make them stronger.

K.A. Linde is now one of my must-read authors and I cannot wait to read more of her books.

Compared to the first book, this series has definitely come a long way. The conclusion to this series definitely made struggling through the first one. I thoroughly enjoyed this conclusion.

Was this review helpful?

Blood Cure is the last installment in the Blood Type series. After that devastating cliff hanger in book two, I was eager to see where Linde was planning to take this story. Well, she worked it out superbly and left me satisfied with how the series ended.

Blood Cure picked up precisely where Blood Match ended. A lot of changes have taken place, and it forces Reyna to adapt. She has come a long way. She no longer portrayed the naive and mouthy female that readers were used to in the previous books. The chaos, mayhem and the loss she suffered did not break her, instead it brought out her leadership skills. I admired her ability to rally everyone in fighting for the equality of humans and vampires.

I will not go into much detail as I do not wish to spoil the story for those who have not read it as yet. However, what I will say is that this was a well-written series with interesting characters. I loved how everything was resolved, and everyone got what they rightly deserved.

Another thing I will share is that there were several upheavals in this book. There were moments when I feared for the characters, especially Reyna. Each character had their own share of turmoil.

Caitlin Elizabeth continues to narrate, and she did a splendid job. I enjoyed every moment listening to this series. She brought life to the story and the characters.

Conclusion/Recommendation
All in all, Blood Cure was an exciting conclusion to a series I thought was unique and edgy. It demonstrates love’s ability to conquer its enemies and that it pays to stand up and fight for what you believe. Fans of paranormal romance and urban fantasy would love this series.

Blood Cure was a great read by K.A. Linde. At twenty-one years old, Reyna became a live-in blood escort for a handsome vampire named Beckham. She did this in order to feed her brothers at home. Reyna attempts to flee the city that has been taken over by vampires. She works hard to try and reclaim the life that was taken from her. I loved reading Reyna's story and can't wait to read more by K.A. Linde.

Blood Cure is the powerful conclusion to Reyna and Beckham's quest to bring down William Harrington and his evil plan to basically take over the world. Also, there is this whole falling in love / soul mates thing going on with them. They are a pretty busy couple.

Blood Cure was a fast paced...suspenseful...heart beating out of your chest kind of read. The villain was so evil he made your skin crawl. The H/h had to try to outmaneuver Harrington and sometimes they failed epically. Yet they never gave up on each other and their cause to free humans and bring equality back to the world.

This entire trilogy was thought out so well. In the book world where vampire PNR has been done...a lot...it's rare to find a story arc that's so fresh and original. PNR and Urban Fantasy fans should put this whole trilogy on their must read list. It's that good.

"As they were moving, her heel fell off and onto the patio floor. Just like Cinderella. Except instead of her going to the ball to find Prince Charming, her Prince Charming died at the ball."

I don't think I will be getting over this series any time soon. The last time I was this anxious to get my hands on an instalment of a series was The Royals by Erin Watt and it is also safe to say that Linde delivered Erin Watt level of cliffhangers which resulted in hanging mouths, internal screaming and screeching.

Picking up right where Blood Match left off, we are immediately thrust into the world of betrayal, vampire-human politics, love and the ultimate fight of survival.
I've already said this but K.A. Linde has created such a unique and original world where vampires and human reside and she has done a fantastic job with it.

After the shocking ending of Blood Match and then the revelation after that ending had me squealing and screaming in happiness while rolling on the bed.


"Say you want this lifetime with me,” he whispered against her lips.
“I want everything with you.”

Every character in this series, even the negative ones go through so much growth as individuals and as a group and I couldn't get enough of Beckham and Reyna and the progression of their relationship.
Beckham and Reyna coming together as a team was such a joy to read. Their developing connection, their powers, the understanding they shared with each other.

It was so much seeing Reyna coming into her own skin and developing and becoming the leader that the people needed and the subsequent relationship dynamics changing between everybody, especially Beckham and Reyna. He was allowing Reyna the space to soar while he was standing behind her, having her back.
Beckham relinquishing control was truly a major move on his part and for the first time, a vampire and human were equals.

The twists and turns and ups and downs and all the secrets finally coming out, Blood Cure had me on the edge of my seat, pages flipping like mad and random shouts of approval and disappointment, it was the perfect conclusion to this series! The ending was exactly what Beckham and Reyna needed.

4 Stars!

Overall - 4.5 stars

A wonderful conclusion to a brilliant series. Blood Cure is the final book in the Blood Type series by K.A. Linde and I really loved it. The plot hooks you in and throughout the series, you kept wanting to know what will happen next. It's a rush to say the least. The story flows, the characters are memorable, and the emotional roller coaster is exhausting, but it all makes it worth the read.
If you've been waiting for the conclusion like I have, you need to one click this book today and read it for yourself. You won't be disappointed. 4.5 stars!

Wow! What a freaking ride! This was probably most anticipated book release in quite some time. I would give it a huge 5 stars and highly recommend to others! I was so nervous reading this story and hoping for a miracle when book 2 ended... yeah if you have read the 2nd book you know what im talking about.. I will not spoil this by giving away in details in the final book but I will say is there are some many twist and turns you will never be prepared for what your about to read... so get comfy because you will not be able to put this story down you will want to devour it just like I did all in one day!
The answer to all of your questions will be answered, there is still heartbreak... but so much more as well!
Can Reyna move on without Beckham? You will have to just get to one clicking to see what happens... I PROMISE you will not be disappointed!
I have to say if all paranormal with this intriguing and powerful yet sexy I would totally read more!
_______
Finally, the long awaited final book in this trilogy. Seriously, this couldn't come fast enough.

With renewed vigor she is determined to take them down. No matter the cost. Now she needs to plan and succeed.
Want to know this conclusion? Definitely one-click now.

Blood Cure….. Captivating…Intriguing…Amazing

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ❤️ this series…. Blood type series started out wary for me. I connected with Beckham but I did not connect with Reyna. 

The second book in this series left me in awe. I was on pins and needles waiting for Blood Cure. 

Blood Cure did not disappoint. 

I love how the story developed and the characters developed with each series. I actually began to like Reyna more and more. By book 3 she is my super human. She is not as naïve as before. She had learnt different lessons along the way by the silly mistakes that she made and was able to use that to her advantage. 

What Happened to Beckham!!!! What Happened to Beckham!!! Sorry I can’t say, I feel that will spoil the story. IT’S SO GOOD THOUGH 😍

Overall well written series. I can come addicting so anyone that haven’t read it, I am happy that all three books are out so you don’t have to play the waiting game like I did. You will love the storyline.   MUST, MUST, MUST, READ.

I don't want to spoil anything since this is the last book in a trilogy. I'll just say that this was a great conclusion to the trilogy. Thank you to Net Galley for sending me a copy of this book to review.

To be fair, I came into book #3 without reading the other 2 books. I definitely need to go read the other 2. Reyna and her crew are reeling from multiple losses. It's fascinating that they are trying to make vampires and humans equal and able to live together in the same community. There's war between vampires and anti-vampires, and Reyna helps lead this rebellion. Intriguing read.

I don’t want to ruin this for others, so I won’t put a ton in my review, but this series and this final book were all AMAZING. I loved this series, and I was not disappointed in its finale.

4.5 stars!

Intense, exciting, and unputdownable, Blood Cure is a fantastic conclusion to the Blood Type Trilogy. Picking up immediately from the ending of Blood Match, we are thrust into the gut-wrenching, heart-breaking reality that Reyna is forced to face. Beckham is gone and Reyna is heartbroken but she can’t give up. There is still a mission and she is ready to fight.

Fantasy and paranormal romances are some of my favorite types of books and this trilogy has everything I love. The storyline is well developed, original, suspenseful and action-packed. The characters are multi-dimensional, strong, selfless, and endearing. And the romance is emotional, intense, passionate, and unending. I couldn’t have asked for more!

I won’t go into too much detail because I don’t want to spoil the story but the first two books made sure I was fully invested in Reyna and Beckham’s lives so I was crushed at the end of the second book. Now, things are different than before but it is no less exciting, intense, or fast paced. Everyone is stronger and more aware of what must be done, and we are thrown into the action I love.

Reyna is awesome! True to her character, she remains strong, brave, feisty, and kickass. She finds herself in a position she never thought possible but she must move on and move forward. Stepping up her game, she is confident and determined as she faces obstacles head on. She will not fail. She is smart, powerful, and rises to meet the challenges placed in front of her.

Beckham and Reyna are amazing together in this trilogy as a human and a vampire fighting for the same cause and experiencing a love that is all consuming.

“I have waited a lifetime for you.”

They share a connection that is unique and unable to be severed even when they are hit with the unthinkable. They are passionate and intense, “an unlikely match – and yet somehow perfect in every way,” with a love that is completely believable. I was rooting for them throughout the entire trilogy and their love story didn’t disappoint.

Like the other books, this one is full of shocking twists. Just when I thought I knew where the story was going, it would take a hard turn and lead us to a jaw-dropping situations. Taking the villains to a whole other level, there is a lot of death and destruction that broke my heart; however, not all hope is lost when you have the amazing group of characters willing to go all in and fight for what is right.

Overall, Blood Cure was the perfect finale to the trilogy. I loved the way things played out and I wouldn’t change a thing. It was fresh and original, and I couldn’t keep the love from bubbling over.

“Say you want this lifetime with me,” he whispered against her lips.
“I want everything with you.”
