She had the world on her shoulders. Now she has nothing.
Reyna Carpenter was twenty-one when she became a live-in blood escort for the ruthless and brutally handsome vampire Beckham Anderson. She thought this was a small price to pay for feeding her brothers back home.
But nothing went as planned. Not even her tumultuous relationship with Beckham. And now she wonders if anything will ever be the same again.
As she finds herself in the midst of a losing rebellion, she and her trusted friends must flee from a city conquered by the vampire elite. With their plans blown to pieces and everything they knew and loved gone, their future hangs in the balance.
Despite all she has lost, Reyna must rise from the ashes, reclaim the life that was stolen―and complete her mission, once and for all.
The Blood Type series is best enjoyed in order.

4.25 stars!!!
As soon as this book landed on my kindle, I dropped everything to read it! After that crazy cliff-hanger at the end of the second book, I was dying to see how this series would end! I’ve got to say, this book kept me on the edge of my seat just like the first two, and I couldn’t have loved the ending more!
Everything has fallen apart for Reyna Carpenter. She’s doing the best she can, but her life is in shambles. Even though things aren’t good for Reyna, she has so much strength. I loved how strong and independent she was, even when she was at her lowest point.
There is so much I want to say about this story, but gah! I just can’t. I feel like everything I would write about the plot would be a spoiler since things were left so up in the air the last book. All I really need to say is that you NEED to read these books! It’s one of the best PNR series I’ve read in the longest time. An epic hero, an amazingly strong heroine, and a unique story line- I loved all the books! Definitely must reads!

What an amazing conclusion to this series! I loved it so much! There were twist and turns, action, and all sorts of goings on!! This book kept me on edge the whole time! I also love that there was passion, and explosive sex too; but it wasn't at the center of the story. This time the romance wasn't necessarily in the total spotlight. I don't want readers to get the wrong idea though. There was a great romance between vampire Beckham and human, Reyna...they were soul mates...each others total "Blood Match!!"; but there was so much MORE to this story than that! I said it in my review about the first book, and my opinion still stands...this author did an absolute brilliant job of writing this series. The whole concept with the vampires vs humans, and their blood cures/ matches...etc...was not a theory that has been written before, and it really brought a uniqueness to this series that I loved! It is hard to get fresh ideas in any genre lately; but K.A. Linde did a beautiful job of doing just that! I'm so glad that I gave these three books a go!
I highly recommend this series to anyone who loves an exciting and intriguing paranormal romance! You won't be disappointed. I am being vague on what it is all about, because I am a firm believer in going in blind to a story that has mystery and suspense in it!!! This has it all, and then some! A real must read! I can also guarantee, that I am going to check out this author's past works, as she has my attention now! I have to also mention that there were a couple of loose ends at the end of this book. I have my fingers crossed that she will keep going with this series. I think there could be a potential to keep it going. If she does, I will be eagerly awaiting more!!!

MY REVIEW: can also be found on my blog:
➽ KITTY KATS CRAZY ABOUT BOOKS
BLOOD CURE: is the conclusion in K.A. Linde’s ‘Blood Type #3’ series. It picks up where the second Blood Match (Blood Type, #2) book left off.
Twenty-one year old Reyna Carpenter had watched the life flow out of her soul mate and as she fed him with hope that it would revive him she knew there was nothing else she could do to save him.
He was gone..
Vampires drank from specific humans that matched their blood type and it curbed their baser tendencies. It created 'men' like Harrington and Rowland.
All mayhem broke at that point broke loose and it became a race against time to get to their safe house because they knew no matter what Harrington would hunt the ends of the earth for her.
She has to survive to bring down Visage and reveal their feeding camp to the public because they still have humans imprisoned underneath the building with hopes of taking over the world.
I'd lost both of my brothers and my sister in-law. Jodie was missing. Elle was blown up. And the person I cared the most about-my blood match, my soulmate, was dead.
A band of humans and vampires joined forces to rebel against Visage, an ugly war ensues, casualties, death, destruction and mayhem took place whilst she faced her biggest adversary.
I've only just recently stepped into the 'paranormal genre' only a few reads under my belt, this series here has cemented the fact that I need to broaden my reading matter and read more of this type of genre, I've loved this series to date.
Oh wow!! I crazy loved this series!! Going into this and crawling over book 2’s horrendous cliffy due to that ending my heart was broken, but with the few twists and turns thrown our way with this book, I heart was finally overflowing again. I loved these characters, I’m just sad that this trilogy has come to an end!! A perfect ending to a perfect series! Can’t wait to see what this author is going to produce next!!

"They would weather this as they had done everything else...together."
Blood Cure is the third and final book in the Blood Type Series. This series must be read in order. Reyna and Beckham have been through so much and finally, it is time for them to take down their enemies and lead the rebellion to victory. The stakes are high for them both to survive.
Told in dual POV, Blood Cure is action-packed. The plot is complex and through each book, in the series, my adoration for this couple has only grown stronger. This was my first K.A. Linde read and I will definitely be on the lookout for more from this author.
Overall, I highly recommend Blood Cure and the entire Blood Type Series to paranormal romance fans. Beckham and Reyna are a perfect match and you will enjoy every second of them together.

These books were so good! I devoured all of them one after the other because I just couldn't put them down until I got all of my answers. I loved the mysterious Beckham and trying to learn all the ins and outs of his world. It was one crazy ride that all of his secrets took me on and I don't think I even have words to describe the emotional roller coaster it felt like. And then we have Reyna who has to be one of my all time favorite heroine's ever. Throughout these books there was just so much her character was going though but there was a lot of growth in her also and I thought it was amazing.
From the start of the first book to the end of this one it was like a never ending suspense that had me holding my breath waiting to see what else could possibly happen. I really enjoyed how on edge the story had me and every time I thought things would be okay I was slapped in the face with another secret.
Overall this series gets a huge recommend from me and I'm jealous of anyone that's going into these books for the first time because it's an experience I would love to have again. I hope that we'll see this world from Ms. Linde again since there is definitely a character I need to know more about.

This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life in Books.
I enjoyed this book and am very happy about how the series wrapped up. This is the third book in the Blood Type series which really does need to be read in order. All three books in the series come together to tell a single story with cliffhangers at the end of the first and second books. Since all three books are currently available, I would say that this would be the perfect trilogy to read back to back. I know that once I had my hands on a copy of this book, I couldn't wait to get started with it.
This is the kind of book that is really best approached as blindly as possible. It is also a very difficult book to review because almost anything that I say about the actual story would be a spoiler. I am going to do my best to be as spoiler free as possible in this review.
The second book ends with a huge cliffhanger and things are not looking so good for Reyna. She has so much to overcome in this installment and the way she dealt with everything shows a lot of character growth since the start of the series. This book had a whole lot of ups and downs and I spent a whole lot of time worried about how things would work out for Reyna and everyone else. The characters in this book go through a wide range of emotions that really pulled me into the story. There was plenty of action and a whole lot of excitement that really kept me turning the pages as quickly as I could.
I would recommend this series to others. I thought that this was a really well done trilogy with a very satisfying ending. I am really quite amazed by how pleased I am about how everything came together at the end of this book. I cannot wait to read more from K.A. Linde in the future.

Initial Thoughts
I am really happy with how this story wrapped up. These characters have been through a lot during the series and have all grown quite a bit. There were some pretty exciting developments and a lot of unexpected turns.

OH my gah
OH MY gah
OH MY GAH
I want to see this as a movie!! The finale is the best!! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
“Beckham Anderson had stolen her heart, he owned her body, and as they came together, their souls touched.”
This quote perfectly sums up my thoughts!! An amazing character and entertaining read!
The end of book 2 left me sobbing and rocking in a corner, but I trust this author. I knew she’d make it all better eventually. And that’s exactly what she did!!!
Holy hell, the return of my sexy vampire Lord was one of the best damn scenes she’s ever written! I was shouting and clapping like a crazy person. My heart!!
So.......after things get somewhat back on track, we see the fight for justice resume. What I’ve loved all along about this series is the fact that it touches on current political and social issues we face in this country. Don’t get me wrong...it’s not overtly political or propagandist. However, there are threads of social justice issues that translate to everyday life. Very witty, I must say, of the author to construct the novel in this manner.
Ultimately, what I adored most, are the characters! I’ve been head over tits in love with Beckham since Book 1, but in this 3rd installment, we witness Reyna’s strength and resolve. She really comes into her own. Her progression has been the greatest and I love the woman she becomes. The plot is phenomenal and the pace really picks up in this book. It’s exciting, emotional, suspenseful, and was an absolute joy to read.
I highly recommend the series!

Perfect ending! I was actually just about to open another book before I realized I had this waiting on me. I imagine i looked like a cartoon character waiting for Blood Cure to download. (If you read the last book you know I have my reasons.)
K.A. Linde killed it. Not only did she come up with a unique storyline but the ending to this book melted my heart.
She created a world with vampires like no other. At first I was curious, then the second book came and I was intrigued. When the third released, well I already told you what happened.
This is NOT a cookie cutter vampire book. Linde created a one of a kind world and her skills as a writer to illuminates it further.
Expect the unexpected. Buy the book and get ready for a wild ride.

*Contains Some Spoilers....readers Be Aware*
Blood Cure is the final installment in the trilogy that we have here. I would like to point out that there may be some spoilers for those that suffered from the cliffhanger, although if you have read Linde, you know she won't leave you with a ending such as that. So without further ado....lets talk about this beautiful conclusion.
This is a story that really wraps up this world so nicely, and we see SO Much growth in the characters but most especially in Beckham and Reyna. I just love seeing how much these two really come together in this one.
It starts off with a hard road for both of them. Harrington has broken Beckham's neck, and Reyna is heartbroken thinking the love of her life is gone forever and that she wasn't able to get justice. We see Reyna try to keep it together, and we see how losing her Becks gives her a new purpose in life, and she becomes stronger, she becomes a leader for those left to fight. We see her working with her close circle of friends, to find a safe house, discover the safe houses left and rescue the survivors but unfortunately they learn that Harrington has murdered some in the safe houses. But some they were able to save, including her brother and sister in law. But then what happens is that all that Reyna knew changes and tilts her axis, because while outside checking the perimeter she stumbles into Beckham...who is ALIVE and well and their reunion is as sweet and joyous as I was hoping it would be.
Beckham and his people join forces with those left with the ELLE resistence, they still have their scientist who is working on a cure and doing research into Reyna and Becks blood mating connection. We see them continue on the search for Judie's childhood friend that disappeared when she was kidnapped. We see them continue the fight against Harrington, and we discover what happened to Brian and the tough road he has to recovery after being captured and tortured by Harrington.
The romance between Reyna and Beckham only become more vital and stronger than ever in this final installment we see them face some tough challenges, but we also see how much stronger they are together and what a great team they make. And boy do they kick ass here. What I really liked was that even though Becks worries about the safety of Reyna, he also knows he trusts her compltely and they have a stronger bond than any couple they know. They can feel each other and share each other's emotion and even power and abilities. Their bond has become forged through fire and in Blood Cure, we see that bond tested and how they rise above the ashes and overcome the evil that threatens to destroy the human race.
Overall I found Blood Cure to be a thrilling and edgy paced romance that kept me on edge full of anticipating and heart thumping intensity....a tale of love and fighting for what you believe in, in what is right no matter the cost and that love does CONQUER all!!

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review (thanks NetGalley!)
This book is the final in the Blood Type trilogy. To be honest, I really enjoyed the first book of the trilogy, but I found the second book to be just meh... Partway through the second book I actually wasn't even sure I would move on to the third book, but then I reached that CRAY-CRAY ending and I just HAD to know what happened. I have to say, I'm happy I chose to finish out the trilogy because I really enjoyed Blood Cure.
Blood Cure picks up right where the second book finished off, following up on that insane cliffhanger. I found the pacing in the first half of the book to be a bit slow, but once I reached around the 50% mark things really picked up and I found myself unable to put my e-reader down.
I think where this book succeeded compared to the second book, is that the author went back to what worked with the first book: the relationship between Reyna and Beckham. Sure there is LOTS of extra stuff going on in the world around them. Wars and plots and enemies and all that fun stuff. But the center of the story is focused back on them, which for me, is why it worked.
I can't really say anything else about the what/how/when/why since I want to avoid spoilers, but I will say I was happy with how things turned out in the end.
Ultimately, this was a good trilogy and while things got dragged down a little in the second book, Blood Cure finished things off beautifully!

I love this series and the world K.A. Linde created.I liked how things developed in this one!
The story line was captivating and there wasn't a moment I got bored.It was fast paced and it has everything I want in my stories.The romance between Reyna and Beckham is heavier and stronger in this book and I can't even express how much I loved them!
"Say you want this lifetime with me,” he whispered against her lips. "
“I want everything with you.”
I'm looking forward for more paranormal books from K.A. Linde.

Blood Cure is the last installment in the Blood Type series. After that devastating cliff hanger in book two, I was eager to see where Linde was planning to take this story. Well, she worked it out superbly and left me satisfied with how the series ended.
Blood Cure picked up precisely where Blood Match ended. A lot of changes have taken place, and it forces Reyna to adapt. She has come a long way. She no longer portrayed the naive and mouthy female that readers were used to in the previous books. The chaos, mayhem and the loss she suffered did not break her, instead it brought out her leadership skills. I admired her ability to rally everyone in fighting for the equality of humans and vampires.
I will not go into much detail as I do not wish to spoil the story for those who have not read it as yet. However, what I will say is that this was a well-written series with interesting characters. I loved how everything was resolved, and everyone got what they rightly deserved.
Another thing I will share is that there were several upheavals in this book. There were moments when I feared for the characters, especially Reyna. Each character had their own share of turmoil.
Caitlin Elizabeth continues to narrate, and she did a splendid job. I enjoyed every moment listening to this series. She brought life to the story and the characters.
Conclusion/Recommendation
All in all, Blood Cure was an exciting conclusion to a series I thought was unique and edgy. It demonstrates love’s ability to conquer its enemies and that it pays to stand up and fight for what you believe. Fans of paranormal romance and urban fantasy would love this series.

I will not go into much detail as I do not wish to spoil the story for those who have not read it as yet. However, what I will say is that this was a well-written series with interesting characters. I loved how everything was resolved, and everyone got what they rightly deserved.
Another thing I will share is that there were several upheavals in this book. There were moments when I feared for the characters, especially Reyna. Each character had their own share of turmoil.
Caitlin Elizabeth continues to narrate, and she did a splendid job. I enjoyed every moment listening to this series. She brought life to the story and the characters.
Conclusion/Recommendation
All in all, Blood Cure was an exciting conclusion to a series I thought was unique and edgy. It demonstrates love’s ability to conquer its enemies and that it pays to stand up and fight for what you believe. Fans of paranormal romance and urban fantasy would love this series.

Recensione per il blog Valentina Abbr
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?stor...
Reyna, come abbiamo visto nei precedenti volumi della serie, aveva fatto di tutto per cambiare la sua vita e quella dei suoi fratelli. Mai avrebbe pensato di imbattersi in un affascinante Vampiro come Beckam, alto, tenebroso, impenetrabile, con occhi scuri come la notte, che bisbigliavano pericolo ed echeggiavano di passione. In breve tempo Becks aveva fatto crollare le sue paure e le incertezze sui vampiri.
La connessione tra loro era potente, andava oltre l'amore e la passione: erano anime gemelle.
«Posso percepire il tuo sangue, posso percepirlo in questo momento. Tutto di te, il tuo odore e il tuo sapore.
Poi era arrivato il dolore e Reyna era stata costretta a prendere in mano la sua vita, da brava guerriera. Si sentiva sull’orlo di un precipizio perché la sua intera esistenza era cambiata. Non si trovava più ai margini della propria vita, ora ne era alla guida, ed era a capo di Elle. Sentiva di dover salvare tutte quelle persone che si trovavano in pericolo per colpa di Harrington, voleva restituire loro le vite che meritavano e non quelle che la Visage gli aveva imposto attraverso povertà e disperazione.
"La Cura" era un’opportunità, una nuova avventura. Non solo per i vampiri che erano stati trasformati contro la loro volontà, ma anche per quelli che erano entrati volontariamente nell’oscurità.
Alcuni vampiri erano predisposti ad avere funzionalità cognitive più alte, come ad esempio Harrington che, insieme ai tre vampiri Lord che lui stesso aveva reclutato, Cassandra, Rowland e Beckham, aveva architettato la recessione con lo scopo di dare vita alla Visage, per controllare il pianeta intero.
All'inizio la Visage era apparsa al resto del mondo come una società benefica che aveva portato la salvezza nel corso di una grande crisi. I vampiri erano spuntati dall’oscurità con l’invenzione della "cura per gruppo sanguigno" , che non era per nulla una cura ma piuttosto un cerotto. I vampiri bevevano da umani con il loro stesso gruppo sanguigno e questo teneva a freno i loro istinti più bassi.
Ma le cose stavano diversamente.
La serie Blood type si svolge in un mondo paranormal di vampiri, un'incredibile trilogia distopica dove, soprattutto in questo terzo volume, troviamo tanta azione, adrenalina e colpi di scena inaspettati.
I protagonisti sono legati da una fremente bramosia, un' unione intensa che va oltre i limiti:
«Una copia perfetta della composizione del sangue è qualcosa di speciale, che va oltre il gruppo sanguigno stesso, fino a raggiungere le sue fondamenta.

I've always been a huge fan of Kyla, and I'm so happy she went ahead with the Blood Type Series. It was so different and that's always something I look forward to when I'm looking for my next read! This was a great ending for the series. I was hooked from the first page and loved every second!
September 19, 2018
Blood Cure conclusion left me sad that it’s ended but happy that Reyna and Beckham finally can be at peace but their journey their chemistry their friends and allies bring so much to the ending and it’ll leave you wondering what will happen next. It’s so good that every time you know or think will happen surprises you but also will leave you teary yes the moments that you least expect will happen happen but I feel like there might be more, who knows.

I received this book from NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.
This is book 3 of 3 in a series and you most definitely should read all of the books in order to know what is going on. This is a quick read, the action fast-paced and well-written. You'll be glued to Kindle because there is no way you'll be able to step away from it... The story absolutely sucks you in... Gripping and addictive. That epilogue though? The end, are we sure??? 4 stars.

HOLY WOW!!! WOW!!!! I’m reeling from one of the most EPIC series endings EVER!!! What a rush! What a read!!! My racing heart! I nearly had a heart attack while reading!!! K.A. Linde has SLAYED this series so hard and turned me into a bloodthirsty vampire book-loving freak. Never did I—a non-paranormal reader—fathom reading another vampire series after Twilightand loving it so much. All the YES!!!
”I’ve waited a lifetime for you.”
K.A. Linde’s Blood Type ‘vampire crack’ books—so brilliantly and beautifully written with bold characters and a pulse-pounding plot—will render you beguiled, breathless and bleeding for more. The merging of humans and vampires in a unique world that K.A. Linde flawlessly brings to life is unequivocally addicting. The strong vampire fighting for justice and the woman who rises to be his brave equal is unstoppable.
Chess was a game of strategy. You were meant to outmaneuver your opponent. Force them to make sacrifices and then go on for the kill.
My new vampire hero and holder of my heart is Beckham Anderson now. Beckham, this beautiful and broody, vampire gets better and better! I can’t love this blood-sucking and big-hearted alpha of a vampire hero enough! I’m still stunned that non-paranormal lover me is lusting after a vampire and SO OWNED by K.A. Linde’s Blood Type world. Becks is the perfect hero in every way.
”You fear me?”
“Never.”
As much as I loved and lusted after Becks, his human is pretty incredible too, Reyna. Reyna rises with each book, and it was absolutely mesmerizing to witness her transformation from meek mouse to powerful lioness. Reyna roars with even more strength that is admirable. A warrior queen and sheer commanding force who’s unstoppable. Together, Reyna and Becks are fated soul mates with a connection felt so deep that it’s as if they were created for each other.
”In war, there are no rules.”
If words were bombs, then this story was war. An epic war of vampires, humans, heart, and soul—so tenacious, tender, and thrilling—that annihilates all the emotions. Daring. Dangerous. Delectable. A roller coaster with ups and downs, twists and turns, and toe-curling moments. A brilliant book and series with a BOLD BEATING HEART. A written gem—garnet of course. Pure genius. PURE PULSE-POUNDING PERFECTION.
”I’d die a thousand deaths for her.”
These Blood Type books were my UNDOING—one of the most epic paranormal series ever! Blood Cure and the entire Blood Type series hooked its claws or fangs into me so hard that I never wanted to be released. I never wanted to let this sensational story and series go. So sensual. So smart. So swoony. So spine-tingling. So superior. So bloody EPIC and so EVERYTHING. The perfect match. MY PERFECT MATCH. I’m bleeding for more.
”We are connected by more than our blood. We are united through our souls.”
A TOP 2018 & LIFETIME SERIES!!!
💋💋💋💋💋💋 beautiful and brilliant bloody kisses

4.5 Say you want this lifetime with me Stars
The ending of a trilogy. This series brought angst, love, death, violence and hope to its readers and the characters within it.
This story is about the rebellion between Elle and Visage. The battle for equality between vampires and humans. The fight to get out of starvation, death and destruction. But with a battle comes many deaths… and those that lose their life take a piece out of the readers heart every time.
This book prepares everyone for the faceoff between Reyna and Harrington that we have all waited for three books for. I loved the power Reyna exuded in her face off… but I don’t think my heart will stop hurting for a long time.
I hurt for the book ending, I hurt for the lives lost, and I hurt for the damage of all the characters in the book.
This was a great series and I am so glad I discovered it.. it has been a long time since I picked up a K.A. Linde book which may spur me to reread her avoiding series ( the only one I have read from her) .. and finally start all her other books which I purchased at each ones release.

Salve lettrici,
Oggi vi parlo dell’ultimo capitolo della serie Blood Type di K. A. Linde, “Blood Game”.
Nei volumi precedenti abbiamo visto maturare Reyna e diventare il nuovo volto di Elle, pronta per la ribellione contro la Visage che, come ben sappiamo, voleva comandare il mondo intero con la sua squadra di vampiri.
Il finale del secondo romanzo ci aveva lasciate con l’amare in bocca e con la sensazione che forse non sarebbe andato tutto a buon fine.
Questo romanzo però rimette in carreggiata le nostre speranze, ma non faccio spoiler.
Posso dirvi però che questo romanzo conclude perfettamente la serie, arricchendola ancora di azione e mistero e regalandoci tanti momenti di vera dolcezza, romanticismo e amore tra due anime gemelle, tra due esseri compatibili nel sangue.
Nel corso dei primi due volumi abbiamo visto la loro storia d’amore evolversi e abbiamo visto la Elle mettere a punto i loro piani per sconfiggere la Visage.
In questo volume arriva la vera battaglia finale che non si svolge con le armi, ma solo con la furbizia e con la grande sorpresa che è diventata Reyna.
Reyna che, nel secondo volume, era già maturata molto, qui si rivela il cuore di Elle e il suo punto di forza.
Reyna prende in mano la Elle e combatte finalmente per il suo sogno e per il sogno di tutti quelli che credono che vampiri e umani possano convivere in questo mondo.
Ma questo lo avevamo già previsto, quello che ci sorprende è la forza e l’intensità che si va a creare tra i compatibili di sangue.
Il legame tra Reyna e Becks è davvero forte in questo volume, intenso e molto umano. Ricco anche di emozioni che i vampiri non dovrebbero provare, come la gelosia, e che fanno di Becks un personaggio davvero speciale.
Ho adorato Becks in tutto e per tutto: il suo fascino, il suo essere di poche parole, e la sua anima, violenta come quella di ogni assassino, ma generosa come quella di ogni innamorato.
Ho adorato inoltre, nel corso di tutta la serie, le ambientazioni, che sono state sempre descritte con molta cura, rendendo davvero facile al lettore immaginare di questo mondo governato dai vampiri.
Insomma, è stato davvero bello leggere questa storia.
Si è rivelata piacevole, molto bella e davvero ben scritta.
Ricca non solo di azione ma anche di scene passionali, romantiche e momenti di vita vera.
D’altronde questa è la storia di Reyna, e una bella storia va raccontata in tutto e per tutto.
Buona lettura!

It wasn't that good but not bad either. I'm glad the last book of the trilogy focusing more on their actions to get the world to be better and some sexual and romance happen between our main characters. I don't mind, but am just glad. I find that the romance are much more cuter than the first and second book. I have no idea why I suddenly feels like, Becks, our main main male character, are too cute! Maybe something isn't right with my brain.
However, the lacking part was when I suddenly feels like the story are in a cliff hanging position where there were two unanswered questions floating in my brain.
1. What happen to Rowland? Did they ever catch him? Where is he? If he's still around, it could only mean danger.
2. What happen after Becks last decision? Will he survive or will he miss the old days? Will Rowland suddenly comes back after knowing what happen?
Get that? Too frustrating to think. I need the answers. 🤦🏻

My stomach was in knots. My palms were sweating. My mind was gone. My heart beating so hard with anticipation. With gusto. With pain. With love. I was scared. I was itching. I was completely overcome with chills deep in my bones. Because of Blood Cure. Let me tell you, Blood Match left me so emotional. I could not recover at all. I was so terrified to start Blood Match because emotionally ruined me. I decided to go in because I loved the series so far and I had to know the ending. K.A. Linde, you are amazing. I bow at your feet. Blood Cure PIERCED my soul. My heart was heavy joy. My skin was ablaze. Blood Cure COMPLETED me. Actually, Blood Cure cured me. Cured my heart. Cured my soul. So perfect. So alluring. So intense. I felt every single sentence. I felt every single magic coming from a riveting paranormal romance. Blood Cure was my UNDOING. Blood Cure was my RECKONING. Blood Cure was my REMEDY. K.A. Linde delivered an exhilarating conclusion. ROCKED me. TANTALIZED me. OVERTOOK my waking thoughts. HAUNTED my dreams.
Blood Cure is the anticipated conclusion to this rich and exciting series. This is the book I have been waiting for. A book that completes a series. A book that ties all the loose ends together. Blood Cure split my heart into two. Blood Cure severed my soul in half. Every page was blinding hot. Every page echoed. Every page was dripping in honey and sin. Every page just offered a delicious snack. I had my fill of it. I took a bite and enjoyed a spectacular romance with a gripping plot. Explosive. Heart Twisting. Heart Stopping. Show Stopping. Incredible. Blood Cure is a sensational paranormal romance with twists and turns, paralyzing drama and hot action. Blood Cure was chaos. Blood Cure was mayhem. Blood Cure was mind bending goodness that filled my bloodstream. I was shaken to the core. I was turned inside and out. K.A. Linde is like a painting. Vivid. Descriptive. Touching. Her writing just holds you till you think only of her words. Blood Cure takes you on a journey of survival, action, battle of good vs evil and love neatly tied in a magnetic paranormal adventure. It is not just a simple vampire story but it is a paranormal escape.
Beckham and Reyna faced so much adversity, loss, obstacles, love and pain. I rooted for them. I adored them. I freaking fell in love with them. With their emotions. With their chemistry. With their love. They faced evil forces to come back stronger. Beckham and Reyna are totally one of my favourite paranormal characters because they exude so much affection and true love. They are the epitome of soul mates destined to be together. They definitely brought so much energy into the story, I am definitely enchanted.
I am not ready to let go. I read this series because it opened my eyes to a mesmerizing journey of a book that assaulted everything inside of me. Thank K.A. Linde for the perfect paranormal romance that touched my heart.

Linde's Blood Type series is definitely one of my favorite PNR reads to date. Blood Cure is the finale to this series and all books MUST be read in order.
Linde ended this series perfectly. After we received that soul shattering cliff hanger in book two, I was not sure where this story would take us. And I won't tell you anything that happens either - one tiny detail would be like giving too much away.
Reyna and Beckham truly grow in this book. Not just together, but individually. Reyna shows her true calling and steps up when she is needed most. But the relationship between Beckham and Reyna is truly remarkable - individually they are tough and strong, but together, they are indestructible.
"He was the king of his people and she was the queen of hers."
I loved all the aspects of this book - the romance, the suspense and the whole take on paranormal. Linde definitely stands out with this series. Each book is great and she wraps is up perfectly with Blood Cure.

After that heart-stopping cliffhanger ending in Blood Match, I was absolutely DESPERATE to get my hands on this book!
It haunted my thoughts and I agonized for WEEKS over every possible conclusion before finally getting my greedy little hands on this book.
Needless to say, I was both terrified and excited when this landed on my kindle.
In Blood Cure, Reyna finally finds the strength within herself to be the leader she was always meant to be.
We meet some very interesting characters, especially one very mysterious man I very much hope gets his own story told in the near future.
This book picked up where it left off in Blood Match, but quickly became a story full of plot twists, heartbreak, and mystery.
It was hard to predict which way the story would turn and just when you think you might have a good guess, something you least expect happens leaving you reeling and anxiously swiping to the next page.
We got to learn more about Beckham and his past, and the details of just how strongly bonded Reyna and Beckham were to each other.
Blood Cure was a fantastic conclusion to the Blood Type series. but because a certain villain was let go, the ending, in my opinion, just felt a bit unfinished.
Overall, this was an excellent and exciting read and I highly recommend it!

As they were moving, her heel fell off and onto the patio floor. Just like Cinderella. Except instead of her going to the ball to find Prince Charming, her Prince Charming died at the ball.I don't think I will be getting over this series any time soon. The last time I was this anxious to get my hands on an instalment of a series was The Royals by Erin Watt and it is also safe to say that Linde delivered Erin Watt level of cliffhangers which resulted in hanging mouths, internal screaming and screeching.
Picking up right where Blood Match left off, we are immediately thrust into the world of betrayal, vampire-human politics, love and the ultimate fight of survival.
I've already said this but K.A. Linde has created such a unique and original world where vampires and human reside and she has done a fantastic job with it.
After the shocking ending of Blood Match and then the revelation after that ending had me squealing and screaming in happiness while rolling on the bed.
Say you want this lifetime with me,” he whispered against her lips. “I want everything with you.”
Every character in this series, even the negative ones go through so much growth as individuals and as a group and I couldn't get enough of Beckham and Reyna and the progression of their relationship.
Beckham and Reyna coming together as a team was such a joy to read. Their developing connection, their powers, the understanding they shared between each other.
It was so much seeing Reyna coming into her own skin and developing and becoming the leader that the people needed and the subsequent relationship dynamics changing between everybody, especially Beckham and Reyna. He was allowing Reyna the space to soar while he was standing behind her, having her back.
Beckham relinquishing control was truly a major move on his part and for the first time, a vampire and human were equals.
The twists and turns and ups and downs and all the secrets finally coming out, Blood Cure had me on the edge of my seat, pages flipping like mad and random shouts of approval and disappointment, it was the perfect conclusion to this series! The ending was exactly what Beckham and Reyna needed.
4 Stars!

6 “little one” stars!!!!
You know when you start a series and the first book blows you out of the water, the second one is equally good and sometimes the third one misses the mark a bit?
Well thats not the case here!!
Holy mother effing..... this series completely blew my expectations clear out of the water. Again and again and again. I started this series enjoying the first book, then the second one i was like “wha.... this is a 5 star read”. And then book 3?! 6+++ stars all the live long day! This book was completely unputdownable. As if this is even possible... but i fell in love with Rayna and Beckham even more. Their love is so pure and true and their connection is so deep you can feel every single emotion that passes between these 2 characters. And i loved how Rayna changed and developed and grew from the first book. She went from being allright in my books to one of my most favourite kick ass heroines ive ever read about.
Ive enjoyed PNR books in the past but they havent been on my radar in a while. This series has so many great reviews and is pushed as a must read even for the non PNR lovers so now that its all out, i had to give it a shot.
Ive never been happier i did.
I can totally see now how this doesn’t need to be enjoyed by only those who enjoy PNR. This series is smart, it has romance, it has action, it has angst, it has heart pounding, edge of your seat, i need a drink, crazy ass moments that carry on throughout the entire series. The first book leads you up to what this series is truly about and the ride... THE RIDE! Of reading this epic series was so so worth it!!
This is solidly in my top fav of 2018.
And the massive book hangover i am suffering right now was so so worth it. And to be honest the one ray of light though my hangover is that there are a LOT of loose ends in the end of this series. You still get your HEA that’s satisfying but there is TONS of room to expand into a 4th book and i really fucking hope she does.
Hear me K.A. Linde?!! We need a 4th!
**i wanna add in to this review that this series reads like an epic movie and i really REALLY hope that this gets picked up for it cause if twilight and the maze runner and divergent and so on can get called up to the silver screen than this one needs to be as well!!”

You know when you start a series and the first book blows you out of the water, the second one is equally good and sometimes the third one misses the mark a bit?
Well thats not the case here!!
Holy mother effing..... this series completely blew my expectations clear out of the water. Again and again and again. I started this series enjoying the first book, then the second one i was like “wha.... this is a 5 star read”. And then book 3?! 6+++ stars all the live long day! This book was completely unputdownable. As if this is even possible... but i fell in love with Rayna and Beckham even more. Their love is so pure and true and their connection is so deep you can feel every single emotion that passes between these 2 characters. And i loved how Rayna changed and developed and grew from the first book. She went from being allright in my books to one of my most favourite kick ass heroines ive ever read about.
Ive enjoyed PNR books in the past but they havent been on my radar in a while. This series has so many great reviews and is pushed as a must read even for the non PNR lovers so now that its all out, i had to give it a shot.
Ive never been happier i did.
I can totally see now how this doesn’t need to be enjoyed by only those who enjoy PNR. This series is smart, it has romance, it has action, it has angst, it has heart pounding, edge of your seat, i need a drink, crazy ass moments that carry on throughout the entire series. The first book leads you up to what this series is truly about and the ride... THE RIDE! Of reading this epic series was so so worth it!!
This is solidly in my top fav of 2018.
And the massive book hangover i am suffering right now was so so worth it. And to be honest the one ray of light though my hangover is that there are a LOT of loose ends in the end of this series. You still get your HEA that’s satisfying but there is TONS of room to expand into a 4th book and i really fucking hope she does.
Hear me K.A. Linde?!! We need a 4th!

“They would weather this as they had done everything else… Together.”
I cannot believe this is the end to a wonderfully written story! K.A. Linde has completely outdone herself with her new paranormal romance trilogy and it didn’t disappoint at all. As mentioned before Blood Cure is the final installment in the Blood Type Trilogy. It follows the journey of Reyna Carpenter (a human) and Beckham Anderson (a vampire) as they go through all sort of obstacles to be together.
Without spoiling too much, lets go back to the beginning. In Blood Type we were introduced to a modern world where vampires co-exist with humans and Visage (a vamp corporation) is ready to create blood matches based on blood types that would benefit the vampire and the human. After discovering that Reyna has been matched with non other than the VP of Visage things start to get complicated. Then in Blood Match we discover that Reyna’s blood is a lot more precious than everything thinks and she gets targeted by the leader of Visage and hunted for it. That is until she finds out about Elle, a rebellion group that wants to end Visage once and for all. But their plan may not have ended the way they planned and she finds herself at risk in the end.
After the shocking cliffhanger in the second book, Blood Cure starts right where we left off and we are back to the last scene. Reyna sees what happens with Beckham and it devastates her. She doesn’t know what do without him and that’s when she starts to realize that their cause is bigger than her and she has to fight back no matter what. We get to see Reyna grow stronger and she starts to trust in herself enough to become a good leader. There are all sort of twists and turns that you will not see coming and that’s what made the story a true success. The romance was hotter than ever and totally swoon worthy! I liked the fact that we were introduced to new characters and got to see what happened to the previous characters as well. Beckham’s character developed as well and we get to see the man behind the vampire and get to see how emotional he can be. I really liked seeing him more relaxed around Reyna and with a cute sense of humor. The ending had me at the edge of my seat and it was everything and more. I was not expecting it and for that I would highly recommend reading the entire trilogy. You will not regret it!
