Review: Chastely Bitten - Lexi C. Foss

Chastely Bitten by Lexi C. Foss
My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars

Chastely Bitten is book one in the ‘Blood Alliance’ series by Lexi C. Foss. The book tells the story of Juliet and Darius. Juliet is a blood virgin. Put into slavery because she is human, she is paid for by Darius to be his blood donor and much more. Darius is a vampire and part of the upper echelon when it comes to vampire politics. There isn’t anything he won’t do in order to have Juliet and when he does get her, he must break her as not only is her blood special, but she is special and going to help him get what he wants…ultimate power.

The story has a lot of build up between Juliet and Darius. Juliet is one of those characters that comes across as weak but ultimately isn’t, she has just been trained to not think and do whatever a vampire has told her to do. It is only from reconditioning from Darius that we see her starting to change into the weapon that he needs her to be.

We also get to see through Darius’s eyes and why he is doing what he is doing, although Juliet is his property and he wants to own her, mind, body and soul there is still a deep connection that he feels for her. At the beginning of the story he comes across as quite arrogant and you see him develop the more the story goes along and understand why he has drawn certain lines in the sand when it comes to him and Juliet.

This was a strong paranormal romance, with plenty of sexy scenes and a story line which can only get better as the series goes along. It will also be interesting to see the development of Juliet and if she becomes stronger and more independent as she is pulled into a web of paranormal politics.
