Nightfall (Blood Magic, #1)

Nightfall is the first book in the Blood Magic series, a series already published a few years ago but recently rewritten. I didn't read the original series so I went on this adventure ready to be surprised and dazzled.
Tegan, our heroine, is a courageous young woman, ready to accumulate two jobs to pay her bills. She lives in Tribane, survives the suicide of her boyfriend and is the protective friend of a young neighbor. Her life will take an unexpected turn when she meets the beautiful and mysterious Ethan. Tribane is home to warlocks, witches, vampires, slayers, and other creatures she never imagined real.
The strong point of this novel is the sensitive and gentle writing of LH Cosway. If you know the author you will not be surprised to find her trademark: light, moving intelligent and on edge words, but also touching characters, well anchored in reality even if here we are in a paranormal romance . Tegan is ordinary ... or rather, that's what she thinks. It's easy to see yourself in her. Ethan has a dark side to him since he is a vampire after all, but he is also intense, protective and seductive. The secondary characters are also endearing, such as Rita and Gabriel, as well as Florence.
The romance aspect is only touched on and we know little about the characters. It's a bit frustrating but I keep in mind that this is only the first book, the author only presents us with the context of her story and her characters and I hope that the 3 other books will have fascinating twists in store for us.
To be continued...
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
