"5 Angels!...Miss DeRouge kept me spellbound from the first sentence to the last. I loved everything about this book, so it is pretty hard for me to decide what I liked about this story the best. Miss DeRouge was so descriptive in her erotic language that it had me swooning along with Fantine. I would say that if you pass up the chance to read Blood Fire then you are missing not only a highly torrid novel, but a love that does not know the word fail.”—Debbie, Fallen Angels Reviews
"4 Cups!...This is an exciting vampire romance. A tormented vampire with a curse and a beautiful female vampire not wanting to let go. Plenty of hot and steamy sex surrounds these two characters as they fight for time. Darkly sensual and wonderfully romantic, vampire lovers will not want to let this book slip by.”—Wateena, Coffee Time Romance
"4 Stars!...I loved Valeray in all his blond and golden strength with his blazing blue eyes. He is the absolute tough and distant guy that brings about a challenge for us women. Fantine was the epitome of all that is soft, beautiful and lovingly innocent with her red hair and jade green eyes...they...[had] an absolutely naughty side to them that pulls you into the story. The sex is this book was a spiced mixed of sensual with a dab of naughty rough love added to it. I really thought the plot was very entrancing and enjoyable...I would love to read more books from this author about that wonderful vampire world that she managed so artfully to create.”—Joyce Mikesell, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
"5 Hearts!...A story that grasps the reader from the start...The smooth flow of the writing carries the reader into the story and mesmerizes as if Valeray is standing right in front of the book with his intense eye contact. His charm is so charismatic all throughout the story. I could almost feel his pain with the plagued curse. Fantine spins some delightful excitement as she rushes against time to aid the man who has captured her heart. Miss DeRouge has created a great read that just is truly remarkable. The way she pens her words, even makes the reader sway with the characters in this fantastic vampire story that is truly awesome! I look forward to more of her fabulous works."--Linda L., The Romance Studio
...Valeray caught his breath at the sight of Fantine. Writhing beneath him, she was pure vampiric beauty. Marble skin kissed hard muscle and bone; sensuous curves adorned rounded hips and lithe thighs. A tiny waist accentuated the petite form of a tiny dynamo.
She opened her legs to him. “Please,” she begged.
Valeray swept a finger between her legs, dipped into her juices.
Fantine exploded at the touch. Fangs flashed as she jerked upright, her cries accompanying the depths of her climax.
He inserted two fingers and smiled as her orgasmic rush sent out pulsing waves that pulled on his digits. Rhythmic and strong, her nerve endings fought to capture him, suck him into their dance of euphoria.
“Fuck me.” Her snarling words wrapped around her need.
Valeray shed his clothes in economical movements and settled between her legs, bracing his arms on either side of her face.
Raising her head, Fantine sank fangs into an arm he braced by her side.
The sharp pain gave way to exquisite pleasure as she drew blood from him in heated gulps. Again, he felt the burgeoning tension of ejaculation.
A howl rumbled from his gut and shredded the air as he prepared to enter her. His heated length slipped through her juices, parting her tender tissue to plunge into her core.
Sharp nails raked his buttocks as Fantine urged him still deeper. She raised her legs and settled them on his shoulders, then lifted her hips and ground them onto his penis.
Valeray withdrew to her threshold, taking the moment to regain control as he teased her. She moaned and attempted with straining fingers to push him back inside her.
Grinning, he rotated his straining cleft tip around her opening. “Patience, sweet. Patience.”
“Damn you and your patience.”
