The Vampires’ Birthright Review
***I received a copy of this book in exchange for my unbiased review and all opinions stated are solely my own and no one else’s. ***
The Vampire’s Birthright by Aiden James is book 2 in the “Lifeblood Legacy” series. In this book we are quickly thrust into motion as we join Txema and her vampire guardians who are working to protect her from Ralu the Chupacabra vampire. Txema is pregnant with child from the ceremony she performed with her former boyfriend so that she would be able to continue her sacred bloodline because she is the last. Now she must survive, give birth to her daughter and stay a step ahead of this vicious creature who would love nothing more than to destroy her. But the road will be hard and full of danger.
This is the first book in this series that I have read and so there were moments of where I was a bit confused as to what was going on and what had led to that point but overall this was a pretty good book. Txema is an interesting character and we get things from the first person perspective as she tells this story. There are moments of where she is irritating because of her disregard for those who are trying to protect her and keep her and her unborn child safe but those moments are brief overall.
This book is really interesting and overall I enjoyed reading it. I intend to go back and read the first book in this series so that I can better understand all of the dynamics concerning what is going on. This book definitely leaves you a cliffhanger wanting to know what happens next and I have to say that I cannot wait for the next book in this series. I fully intend to check out other books by this author. I give this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.

The earth’s most privileged undead believe they deserve a stake in Txema’s blood, and there is power and prestige for whoever controls her ancient bloodline. However, the vampire demon, Ralu, and his burgeoning Chupacabra army crave the same lofty status. Unlike his brother Gustav—ruler of the elite European vampires—Ralu desires the death of Txema, and with it the end of Gustav’s two thousand-year reign. This is the 2nd book of the series. I didn't read the first book and I don't plan on reading the rest of the series. I was bored a few times and I don't trust any of the vampires in this book. I didn't see any compassion or closeness. I read it but I didn't feel it. I received this from netGalley for a review.
