Have you ever started a series that you just can't wait for the next book to hit? That was me with Shapeshifter: Scorpion. I ordered the book to come on release day and stayed up all night to read it and for me it was totally worth it. I couldn't put it down and all I could say at the end was WOW! If you have not started the Desires of Blood series I highly recommend it. It's not your typical Paranormal Vampire Series. The characters are fun, sexy, love to "play" and are loyal to a fault. (BTW when I say play, I mean erotically HOT and Sensuous playtime 18+ for sure )...

Shapeshifter Scorpion definitely has the Funny, Suspenseful, and HOT storyline. This is Magenta and Hugo's story. The pair have an instant connection when their eyes meet at a Bull Fight. Both are in relationships that they hate but getting out of them could prove deadly. Do Magenta and Hugo find a way to be together or do their current partners tare them apart? If you've kept up with the series you know you just don't Mess with Royce or what it his and Magenta is most definitely his. 2 Thumbs up for a great paranormal, suspenseful erotic love story. This reader is looking forward to book 5 to see what happens next and I repeat, if you haven't started the series, it's an erotic paranormal MUST!

I love rock stars, bikers, fighters, cowboys, soldiers, mafiosi and so on, but what I’m truly fond of above all is creatures from another world. Always had. Always will.
Vampires, demons, witches, shape shifters, and other freaks of nature and renegades that live in the shadow of mankind.
When I first heard about Ethan Radcliff’s Desires Of Blood series, I couldn’t help myself. I immediately downloaded the three books on my Kindle and started to read.
Royce Bellamy is a 1,000 year-old vampire. His very own 3 prodigies are also his 3 dirty little secrets: a witch (Lucinda), a fallen angel (Dalhia) and a seer (Magenta), all 3 of them turned vampires.
Vampire is book 1, Warlock is book 2 and Lucinda's story, Jackal is book 3 and Dalhia's story.
Scorpion (book 4) is about Magenta and time travel. Hugo Mendez is Spain’s most renowned matador in mid nineteenth century Madrid, one with a dark foreboding secret…
Erotic, voluptuous, suspenseful, I loved it. I cannot wait for book 5 (Simone's story, Royce's mother) to be released.
Bravo.

Received a copy. Shapeshifter is the fourth book in the Desires of Blood series. Ethan Radcliff continues to bring the erotic heat, mystery and "oh my" factor. Hugo and Magenta are two characters that you enjoy reading and you love taking the journey with them. What are Hugo and Magenta to do when others become involved? My thought is to take the path of these two to find out. This is one hot and exciting read by Ethan Radcliff. I believe Ethan Radcliff can bring the erotic heat to each piece of work he brings to us.

Another excellent book in this paranormal series!

Author Ethan Radcliff never disappoints! This book introduces us to Hugo and Magenta...characters that come alive with passion, desire and the need for more in their lives! They find each other and that's just the beginning of their journey. This story is filled with sexual heat, mystery, and the unexpected. A perfect combination in a series you don't want to miss!

“Shapeshifter is book 4 in the paranormal Desire of Blood Series. This book chronicles Magenta and Hugo’s story. Magenta is a witch/vampire and she figured out how to go back in time. So she went back to Spain 1846. She was running from Grayson whom happens to be a hybrid (vampire/werewolf.) Hugo was a matador whom got himself involved with a very powerful witch by the name of Darita. In order to get Hugo from straying or leaving her—she put an unbreakable spell on him where he shifts into his biggest fear which happens to be a scorpion.
Grayson and Darita work together in order to split up Hugo and Magenta whom are in love. Hugo stays in Spain with Darita and Magenta gets on a ship with Grayson until Royce (Magenta’s maker) gets her distress signal telepathically whom is still in the 21st century. But the biggest surprise for Royce was the reemergence of Simone—his maker. So Royce’s nest as well as Simone go back in time to rescue Hugo and Magenta, take care of Darita and Grayson, and hopefully travel back to the 21st century all safe and sound. “
