Exsanguination (Deliciously Devoted Book 1) by G.R. Loreweaver is a paranormal romance with a twist. This read is funny, spicy and full of action. Ginger is full of life, sassy and has awesome friends. Victor is a vampire and well you just have to meet him. This book was spicy, full of surprises and just a fun/ fabulous read. There are definitely triggers so check the list. I can not wait to read more because I absolutely could not get enough of this one. Great job and I highly recommend this book!

Exsanguination is the first book in the Deliciously Devoted Trilogy by G.R. Loreweaver.

💜 best friends
💜 witches, shifters, vampires, oh my
💜 found family
💜 mysteries
💜 🌶🌶🌶 spicy spice

Ginger can’t wait to make today as special as she feels it’s going to be. You see her boyfriend of six months, Teddy, is going to have the night of his life. You see, they haven’t gotten well acquainted yet. And well, Ginger has decided it’s high time that fact changes. But what happens when your night doesn’t go as planned. Not only that, but it derails so spectacularly from the original plan that it doesn’t resemble anything you originally set out to do.

As per usual, G.R. Loreweaver set out to make a fun quirky paranormal read. This short fun read kept my attention and I didn’t want to stop reading. Ginger is fun and sassy and says what’s exactly on her mind. I caught myself laughing out loud a few times. My only complaint is that I have to wait for the next book to come out. I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Finding out that her boyfriend is a cheating piece of shifter garbage doesn't make Ginger Snap sad, it makes her angry. She also subscribes to the adage that getting over someone is best accomplished by getting under someone new. Ginger and her friend Lexi attend a masked party at a mansion where Ginger meets Victor. They have some really steamy times and both are pretty much convinced that they are mates. But there are complications to happily ever after. There is a cliffhanger and I am SO ready for book 2.

I loved these characters. They are funny, sexy and definitely violent (it's a good outlet, sue me!). It's a fun, quick read and I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind a dark, steamy story!

Little does she know the birthday boy quickly becomes her romper room buddy. Victor, an older vampire, senses something about her that he’s never felt with any other woman. His party becomes something he’ll never forget as Ginger and him have a fabulously fun night. The next morning something is amiss and goes downhill from there…

“Bring on the 🍆 parade!”

I did not know what I was getting into with this book. I went in blind and came out staring straight into the sun. This story was such a comical, magikal and spicy read. I loved the wall breaking……I mean the fourth wall…..or do I ? The whole plot was a crazy paranormal hormonal roller coaster. I had no idea who, what, when, where was cumming next. And why do we have to wait for the next book? I cannot wait!

See you soon,

This is a great fast paced quick read. I adore this author sense of humor. Ginger is fun and sassy. She’s a woman on a mission and she knows what she wants. Victor is the kinda Vampire that gives me more Underworld than Twilight vibes and I’m totally here for it. The two of them together…ugh yes please 😩😩 can’t wait for the next book!

This book is like Twilight and charmed had a baby. It was so freaking epic that I didn't want it to end. I couldn't put this book down cause it was just that good. Ginger and Victor are going to be such a power couple, and I just can't wait to see where this adventure leads us in the next book.

This book was so funny 😭

"I look like a naked and hairless, over-baked demon." I'm sorry but this had me dying laughing 😭😭😭😭

The way the author writes her character like the way they speak/think its so relatable it makes it super easy for me to instantly like them. Ginger from the start proves how much of a badass she. She definitely found her perfect mate in Victor. The are both chaotic in the same way and both enjoy a little foreplay fight with stabbing involved.
They were soooo hot together. Would like for them to get to know each other a bit more in the next book though.

After that ending I NEED the second book pls. I have no idea what just happened just know that I'm very interested whats next for Ginger and Victor, will like to see lexi kick some ass, who is after Ginger and whats going on with her powers.

For such a small book there was a lot happening 😭 i got sucked into the story right away and was definitely enjoying it a lot.

Ps. This book definitely made me feel better after the last book I read by G.R 😭

Exsanguination is book one of the Deliciously Devoted Trilogy by G.R. Loreweaver.

This book was so good I didn't want to put it down, but as a mom to a bossy toddler and a baby who needs me, I had to.

Exsanguination kept me entertained right from the start, and I'm so ready for book two.

Ginger is a snap witch who found out that her bear shifter of a boyfriend has been cheating on her. Lexi, who is a dire wolf shifter and Ginger's best friend, convinces Ginger to go an extravagant party with her. Little to Ginger's knowledge, that the birthday boy, Victor, will become so much more to her. Victor is an older vampire who sensed something in Ginger that he had never felt before with anyone else. They had a great time together that night, and the next morning, things just started to go wrong.

Exsanguination is a definite must-read for any fans of paranormal romances! 5/5 stars and a 4.5/5 peppers on the spice scale! Don't wait. Read it now!!!

Yes, Yes, Yes! That was freaking awesome! One of the best reads of 2024! I mean, damn!!! I cannot believe what I just read! Ginger was a bada$$ FMC. Victor was a fan-freaking-tastic MMC! And Lexi was the most outstanding supporting character EVER!! I cannot even express how magnificent that story was! I did not really know what I was getting into when I started, but once I read that first page, I did NOT put it down until I was done! I loved Ginger’s snark, Victor’s insta-love and Lexi’s attitude! Teddy was a douche!! The characters LEAPT off the page, they seemed so real, the story was EPIC. It was written un-believably mind blowing! But that cliffy…that was BRUTAL! I’m gonna need book 2 ASAP!!! I need to know what in the heck is going on with Ginger’s powers!!!

Warning: This one does have a few trigger/content warnings that should be read.

This story is so deliciously fun. Ginger is a fun snap witch, who wants what we all want. Love, friends, and to just live life. Well she sure has the friend, the best bestie anyone could ask for.

Now love, well…. That one might be harder. You never know when you’re going to find it and with who it going to be with. In the paranormal world, nothing is normal, but it sure is fun!

Cliffhanger of epic proportions. Hot scenes, blood will flow, but at the end of the day, Ginger Snaps is a girl you have to love.

Side note: how about this cover???? Beautiful!!!

Ginger is our FMC and she is a snap witch and a powerful one at that. When she discover her boyfriend cheating, she does what any good witch would and lets her bestie convince to go to the party to forget her trouble. It turns out to be Victor birthday party. Little does either know that they are going to be having a special celebration of their own but everything is definitely in the morning. This is a quick and steamy read but will you be looking forward to seeing her journey through this series.

This is the first book I have read in this series. For the first 20-30 pages I had no idea what was going on. There is allot of spicy but not allot of plot building. I am assuming with what I read I know what's going on but honestly I have no clue. The main FMC has found her dated mate this has been established, I am guessing she is discovering who or what she is. Buy why are people trying to sell revenge physically and mentally. Because of those reason I want to read book two to see if there are some answers.

When Ginger Snaps, she snaps!! Exsanguination is a paranormal, spicy romance with dual POV. It is fast moving, very well written book, that doesn’t miss a beat! It will have you rooting for revenge, whilst anxiously waiting for the real love story to evolve. It is hot, it is explicit, very open door, with a trigger list that you should read. But wow, it packs a punch and leaves you hanging! Hanging off a cliff!!!! I NEED book 2!!!

Five stars for this witchy story!!

Snaps for the win

I loved this book! From the snarky and funny inner dialog that the characters have to the scorching seggy scenes between Ginger and Victor, this book has it going on.
It starts with Ginger wanting to impress her boyfriend Teddy of six months only to find he's had a secret. Her hot best friend Lexie gets her into a para party, which goes on from there.
I loved this story and am so looking forward to the next, especially after how we left off with this one.

Ginger is very excited to meet up with her boyfriend of 6 months....except things do not go how she has planned and oh boy does life take a drastic turn.

G.R. Loreweaver is a master at creating a funny, spicy and utterly enjoyable book. Could not put this book down and am desperately waiting for the next book. Cannot recommend this book enough!

Filled with a sassy, strong FMC, kickass bestie and something dark and delicious, this is a must read for anyone looking for a good time.

Let me start off by saying holy cow! I read the synopsis and totally got blown away by the story that G. R. wrote, I'm still flabbergasted. The synopsis doesn't give much away. I love Exsanguination and the characters. This was such a wonderful masterpiece of storytelling showing us how to weave a story that delivers shock, surprise, and then WHAT!!!!!! Sorry, not spoiling the story. Join the bandwagon and read such deliciousness of a story!

I really enjoyed this. I loved the banter in this book and that between Ginger and Victor. They have such great chemistry too. Who doesn’t love a devoted vampire.

Ginger and Lexi’s friendship is great too. With such really funny moments.

Plenty of really good spice in this. Plus great world building as is always the case with GR Loreweaver.

I can’t wait to see what comes next. I’m left wanting more!

Exsanguination is an amazing short story written by G.R. Loreweaver. You are sucked right into the book as soon as you begin to read it. There are shifters, witches, and vampires. The characters are amazing and they each have their own personality. The chemistry between Ginger Snap and Victor is off the charts. This book is perfect for you, if you're looking for action, spice, and laughter. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series.

I haven’t laughed so hard in ages!

I love dirty filthy talking FMC’s and I love even more when they slap the mess out of an idiot; but when I read this I was hooked. Before the third page I was rolling!
I absolutely cannot wait for more!
Not so family friendly but funny as all get out and yes, the language is strong and graphic. Even R rated I would suggest parental guidance! Haha. 30+.

This book was not what I expected and I loved it. Ginger, a feisty witch, unexpectedly finds her mate at a party. Victor is a vampire celebrating his hundredth birthday and never expected to find his mate today. The humor and intense spice were amazing. The plot twists, danger, and steam all blend together beautifully.

Ginger Snaps is a fiesty. This book leaves you with lots of questions. G.R. loves to keep you guessing and wanting more and more. The book does end in a cliffhanger that will have you asking why oh why and I need to know what happens. I guess you will have to wait to read the rest of the triology to find out everything about Ginger Snaps.

G.R. Loreweaver is the Queen of Dark Romance with a wicked sense of humor. Exsanganuination is the first book in the Deliciously Devoted Trilogy, and has all the feels. Ginger and Victor's story makes you bust out laughing, sobbing into a tissue, and throwing stuff due to anger.
Finding out her boyfriend of 6 months is a cheating shifter leads Ginger to attend a celebration for Victor with her bff, and their lives are changed forever by just one sniff.
Be forewarned that Exsanganuination does end on a major cliffhanger, but book 2 will be coming our way soon. Be sure to read the trigger warnings to be sure this book is for you.

Fantastic.

This is the first book in a new trilogy and it's off to a great start. The world building and characters are fantastic. G..R. Loreweaver gives us a hot vampire/witch romance that had me hooked from the start. Ginger and Victor spice up the pages. Fingers best friend Alexis is awesome too I can't wait to find out what happens next in book two.
