They’re the new kids at school—and their father wants to suck the life out of the student body—in this thrilling sequel to Bloodlines.
It’s hard enough moving to a new city and a new school when your father is a vampire. Now twins Ari and Paul Montclair feel like they’ll never fit in given their vampiric family history. The worst part is, their bloodthirsty father has no boundaries. Even their friends aren’t off limits . . .
When their classmates start to suspect something sinister is going on, Ari and Paul have to fight off their own unnatural urges, which is getting harder and harder to do. Their here-today-gone-tomorrow father wants to make up for lost time and bring the kids into the fold. Paul and Ari can only depend on each other to keep their chance at a new life from ending up in undeath.
Don’t miss Bloodchoice, the third book in the Vampire Twins series!
“Bloodlust” book 2 of the vampire twins series (nightmare series of the 90s) by Janice Harrell. Dec 23, 2025 to Dec 25, 2025.
I read this book as a teenager, fancied reading the book again. In this book it’s a continuation of book 1. The characters behave older, surprised that they’re 16!
In this book, Paul becomes a vampire, made by Verena (Aunt Gabrielle’s friend). Always remember the scene where he accidentally kills Suzannah, his girlfriend. Ari doesn’t take his change very well. She refuses to become a vampire.
She wants to grow old. 8 children?! With Cos? She needs to grow up a bit! Ari’s character is a bit annoying. She’s a bit judgey.
Cos ex girlfriend Nadia and best friend Jesse, become a couple, they believe in vampires!
Rab is Sybil’s older brother. He has a thing for Ari. I wonder if he’s Ari’s step brother? As Rab’s and Sybil’s mother Mrs Barron, has history with Richard Montclair, the twins father. Richard told her the truth of his vampire life, she abandoned him. In this book he’s rarely around. But was in the book at the beginning.
Vampires scared of fire, scared of cigarettes.
Is this book a four star, for nostalgic reasons, yes.
Now started book three on 25 Dec 2025.

This book finds Paul turned. He is bitten and becomes a vampire. Ami is upset but there is nothing she can do for her brother now. Together they are still trying to piece together their family history and find out more about what is means to have a vampire as a father. While trying to keep friends and others alike from finding out their long buried secrets.
Janice Harrell is an impressive YA author. I liked this book and will continue the series and look for more by her and authors similar.
