    REVIEW: The Vampire’s Club 4 by X. Aratare

    49290030. sx318 sy475

    Lucas Daniels is in danger!

    Not from his mysterious new job, but from someone in his own house: his stepfather. Just when he thought Garrett’s intentions were all in his head, his stepfather’s actions send him running to Dyavol and Konstantin for protection.

    Count Konstantin “the Wolf” Volk will do anything to protect Lucas, and not only because Lucas’ blood may be curing him. When he finds Lucas under threat from every corner, he’ll do things he never thought possible in order to keep the young man safe. Cutting deals with ancient dangerous vampires, testing the bounds of his curse, even opening up the heart of his vampire Sanctuary itself to a mere mortal. Nothing is off limits.

    But while Konstantin is focused on keeping Lucas safe, could the real person in danger be Konstantin himself?


    For me, the hardest books to review are the rare 5-star books. There is the very real temptation to simply fill the page with incoherent squees and emojis bursting with heart eyes and stars and exclamation marks. So excuse me just a sec.

    The Wolf is claimed!!!!!! ♡☆*:.。.o(≧▽≦)o.。.:*☆♡ !!!!!!!

    And holy mother that elevator scene!!! (❤ω❤) !!!!!!!

    “Anything? Everything?” ヽ(>∀<☆)ノ。o○♡ !!!!!!!

    Now that’s out of the way…

    Book 4 of The Vampire’s Club finally has the evil stepfather making his move on Lucas (TW: sexual harrassment). The Volk family, the awesome Lizzie and the paranoid (and vocal) Xavier in particular, rallied to Lucas’ aid. They attempted their powers of seduction on Lucas’ mother to make her see the truth regarding the incident. However, they were met with the strongest mental barrier they have ever encountered. The evil stepfather has a mental wall as well…

    I could understand the spell on Lucas’ mom but the evil stepfather too? Hmm…

    On a happier note, we are getting a LOT of Lucas and Konstantin! Hence the explosion of emotions above. The plot thickens some more as two arch-enemies meet face to face. I am on tenterhooks!

    What exactly is Gaia’s plans for the vampires? Are witches and vampires truly enemies? Is Lucas the Trojan Horse the Nomad suspects he is? Will Lucas realize what Konstantin really is? Will Konstantin ever tell him?

    TELL HIM DAMMIT!!! Make him your fledgling!!!

    The Vampire’s Club continues to work it magic. I am completely enthralled. Let it seduce you too.

    P.S.

    The serial should be read in order. TVC books here
