Out for Blood (Drake Chronicles #3) 
(I read this book in Ruling Passion which contains the first three books in the Drake Chronicles series) Number of pages: 292Time it took me to read: 2 daysRating (out of five stars): 5Hello? Give me a little credit. Vampire stealth, remember?Vampire arrogance, you mean.That tooOut for Blood is in the point of view of Hunter and Quinn. I find their story to be really sweet. I also love that there is a lot of action in this book and even a little mystery.Just like the last two books in the
"Tell me about the Drake Brothers. Are they as yummy as everyone says?" "Totally." I didn't even have to think about that one. "It was like being in a room full of Johnny Depps."If those lines alone don't suck in you in, I don't know what else will...The story centers around Hunter Wild (yeah, I know, awesome name), a star vampire hunter in her last year at the Helios-Ra academy and Quinn Drake, pretty boy vampire prince and infamous womanizer. When the Helios-Ra academy is over run by a

My favourite book in the Drake Chronicles,I love Quinn, he is awesomeI liked Hunter a lot, she is really coolI like Chloe, Jenna, Jason and Spenser (OMG, Jenna Jason and Spencer, Pretty Little Liars lol)I cant wait to read the next book in this amazing series :)
I love this series - and it seems to just keep getting better and better.One of the things that really gets me, is that though each story is "kinda" separate it all builds on the book before - though different character's eyes...At first, with the first book - and even a bit with the 2nd, I was thrown off, a bit confused - though thats not even it...not really - it's tough to explain, I felt like I was missing something - which as the series goes on, I guess I was - each step, each book builds
Whats Good About ItIf youve read my review of the previous two installments in this series, youll know that I think they are full of unrealised potential. Its much the same with Out For Blood. Harvey continues with her comfortably successful formula, introducing a new female character to be a love interest for the next Drake in line. Frothy fun ensues with much he was so hot and I couldnt explain why I was so obsessed with her, but not a lot of character development.The pace remains good, and
Still, so much dame fun!!Out for Blood is another great installment in the Drake Chronicles where we learn more about Kieran's best friend/sister, Hunter Wild, who's a vampire hunter trainee, a kick ass fighter and can't help fall for one of the delicious Drake boys; Quinn.I really enjoyed both Hunter and Quinn's POV. Hunter is a very level headed, strong and independent character who isn't one of these damsel in distress kinda gals. Not to say that she isn't vulnerable, but it's awesome to see

Rendition Concering Books Out for Blood (Drake Chronicles #3)
Favourite Quote: "His fangs lengthened, but only a little. I wouldn't even have noticed if I wasn't used to watching for things like that. And it didn't make me nervous for some reason. I wasn't scared, and not just because I had a purse full of small sharp weapons. There was something between us suddenly, and it wasn't merely a secret unraveling." I always have a blast reading The Drake Chronicles and Out for Blood is no exception. There are certain elements that I require for a good vampire tale and this book ticks all the boxes - fast paced plot, action and adventure, witty dialogue and a delicious romance. First of all this is not your average vampire tale. It has such a unique concept with the Helios-Ra, the hounds, the Host, and the Hel-Blar. In this installment Harvey focuses mostly on the Helio-Ra Academy where they train teenagers the skills to kill vampires. While the writing is good and the plot captures your attention (I devoured it in one day), it is a tad bit predictable. Don't get me wrong, there are some little surprises along the way but you know in the end the guy and the girl are going to up end together and of course save the day. But I like it that way. It is nice to have a series that doesn't need to end of a cliffhanger or with a break up. Each installment focuses on a different member of The Drake family (expect book one which had Solange and Nicholas Drake). Out For Blood is Quinn Drake and Hunter Wild's story. And let me tell you I have been waiting for Quinn's tale (I have been drooling over him since book 1). Apart from being delicious, he has an energetic attitude and is a big flirt. While Hunter is strong and fierce but a sweetheart. Not only can she kick some butt but she is the type of girl who you would want to be friends with. Quinn and Hunter relationship is filled with lots of flirting making for sizzling chemistry. It also a lot of fun and it is nice change from all those intense paranormal romances. We also get to visit some of our favourite couples and characters from the previous books. I love getting a glimpse of what is going on in Lucy and Nicholas' lives. I love their snarky but sweet banter toward each other. Overall, Out for Blood won't disappoint fans of this series. Here are some other quotes I enjoyed: "You are actually strutting", Nicholas muttered. "Just a little. It is good for the soul." "Quit studying- we haven't even started classes yet. Tell me about the Drake brothers. Are they as yummy as everyone says?" "Totally." I didn't even have to think about that one. "It was like being in a room full of Johnny Depps. One of them even kind of dressed like a pirate." Note: Book 4 - Bleeding Hearts will have 3 POV's Connor (Quinn's twin) Christabel (Lucy's cousin) and also Lucy! So excited as I love Lucy and wherever Lucy is Nicholas is sure to be! They are my favourite couple.Identify About Books Out for Blood (Drake Chronicles #3)

Hunter comes from a long line of vampire hunters and is one of the star pupils at the Helios-Ra Academy. Her friendship with Kieran has recently brought her into contact with the Drake family and for the first time she is questioning the Helios-Ra ethos that all vampires are evil and should be destroyed. Back at the Academy students are suffering from a mysterious illness and Hel-Blar attacks are on the increase. Hunter is convinced there is something suspicious going on but who can she trust to(I read this book in Ruling Passion which contains the first three books in the Drake Chronicles series) Number of pages: 292Time it took me to read: 2 daysRating (out of five stars): 5Hello?
