Contract Bound

Contract Bound is fantastic! I can’t even begin to share the story of Silvia & Keira’s journey. The hunter and vampire are well written. I don’t want to spoil the plot, so trust me the characters of Gil, Cain and others just are remarkably crafted in an intense story of power and freedom.

The Order and the plot twist at the end was something of brilliance. I never saw that plot twist coming the entire book. I highly recommend this book.

Alright how do I start? I guess I should point out first that I adore lesbian paranormal romance and vampires especially make my little lesbian heart jump for joy. I say that to say I had high hopes for this book. And boy oh boy did it not disappoint!
It had everything a vampire novel needs: love, lust, action, danger, humor. It was perfect! It was like if Twilight and Buffy had a lesbian child. It had some of those classic vampire novel tropes but with a great twist as well as Mae added a lot of her own style to this novel.
I honestly can not tell you how much I enjoyed this book. Please do yourself a favor and check this out. You will have a fantastic time with this book and my just find a new favorite bookish crush.

The book "Contract Bound" by Elle Mae is again a sapphic book that plays in one of my favorite corners. When vampires, shapeshifters, ghosts or witches play a role, my anticipation is great, as is the hope not to be disappointed by the story. The book delivers what it promises and provides the reader with a beautiful and compelling vampire story.

In the world of the story, vampires live in co-existence with humans and an organization ensures compliance with the established rules of conduct. In the case of black sheep, the Hunters, as Silvia is one, come into action. Silvia's next assignment is to protect - or rather babysit - Keir, the heir to the throne of her father the vampire Raphael, until the transfer of power.

The story has a good length and the characters therefore have enough time to develop in a believable way. Both main characters were sympathetic and relatable in their own ways and as a reader I sympathized with them. Their affection for each other also developed, in my opinion, at a plausible pace.
All in all, a very well written book. The only drawback were noticeable typos that sometimes interrupted the reading flow a bit.

I received a copy from netgalley in exchange for a an honest review.
