Blood Bond Saga #12
Blood Bond: 12
Clues are everywhere, but they don’t seem to add up, especially when a contact at the fingerprint lab gives Erin Hamilton and Dante Gabriel news that can’t possibly be accurate. Another visitor arrives with more information…and an unexpected family tie. In the midst of everything, Erin does what she can to comfort Dante, who is changing before her eyes.
After an ominous visit with Bea, the voodoo priestess, Dante knows what he must do, and he must do it alone. First, though, he will make Erin truly his and take the sustenance he needs to get him through his next battle. But will his love for her be enough to save him when his nemesis is finally unmasked?

Things are heating up in more ways than one. More clues coming to light with just as many questions. Sometimes it feels like we will never get to the root of everything happening. More delicious darkness and more different characters being entwined in this journey.
Re-reading and loving it again.

Oh my goodness this book. I couldn't stop reading. I knew things were getting ready to hit the fan and man did they! I don't know how I am going to wait for the next book to come out in may when I need answers now!
This book is so full of suspense I find myself thinking of the book well after I have finished it, even while reading another book I keep thinking of this one.
My heart goes out to Dante. I want to help him so bad, but we all know it is only Erin who has his heart, so I'm out of the running. All the characters go through a ton this book and I know they will be going through alot more as the next book comes out. This author has mastered getting you sucked into the characters and story but making sure you won't be able to guess what is going to happen along the way. She gives you clues that allow you to guess slightly but the way it all comes together becomes way more than you could ever imagine.
The suspense in this book comes to an all time high. There are also so many emotions that swirl throughout you as you turn each page. You are taken on a crazy ride that you don't want to get off of. If you are looking for a night with no sleep, and a story that will make you not able to function until its over, go ahead and hop on and buckle your seatbelt for a wild ride. You won't forgive it.

Part 12 in the amazing Blood Bond saga. I love Dante and Erin. The Blood Bond saga is romantic and very compelling! Can't wait for the next parts!!
January 12, 2019
In Part 12: Dante is struggling bad, he can’t seem to get a grip on this all consuming darkness that’s taken over his life, but he will continue to fight it.
Erin is doing everything she can to try and keep him safe, to try and help him in any way she possibly can. But when more and more twists and turns are thrown into this instalment, the struggle heightens, more questions start to pop up, new information emerges and come into the picture, which only adds to those burning questions I want answers for.
As the plot thickens and Helen pulls me even more into the story, everything only intensifies (if that was even possible)
The author does what she does best. She pulls you in deep and holds you there, totally at her mercy and you can’t help but flip the page frantically. Ms. Hardt is the queen at delivering a main hero that is wounded yet strong and fights for what he wants, needs and loves.
The love shared between Dante and Erin is firework and the chemistry between the two is off the damn charts.
Yet again, she leaves me with a massive book hang over and one hell of a cliffhanger. I expected nothing less from this incredible author.
I highly recommend this series, but you must read from Volume one.

Unmasked( Blood Bond Saga #10-12) by Helen Hardt. I was glad to read the next volume in this saga. This volume did not disappoint. Saga 10 picks right back where 9 left off. Dante now realizes the darkness he has felt it a part of him and he is concerned about how Erin will handle the news. He also is embracing his newfound powers. As memories keep coming back to Dante he becomes more worried about who he is and what really happened while in captivity. Erin is falling more in love with Dante. We also learn more regarding Erin and her brother's vampire heritage. Each saga revealed more about the book's history as well as the vampire's history. As each saga ended and more was revealed I was hooked once again and couldn't wait to start the next one. As more bread crumbs were dropped I was on pins and needles. Once saga 12 began I was in fiend mode wanting to know more. And when I got to the end of the book at the very last page at the very last word my head almost exploded. I am so looking forward to the next saga or volume. It does not make a difference. I just need more. I need to know how all this will end. I have enjoyed these sagas to the utmost. 5 total stars. Bring it on!!!!!

The queen of cliffhangers has done it again! Helen Hardt blew me away with this continuation. Hardt definitely shows how she is an award winning author with this series!
In this continuation Dante continues to struggle with learning to control the darkness. Erin fights the best she can to help her one and only. New information is thrown there way but only causes further questions. And new surprise visitors bring new information as well. When Dante and Erin visit Bea, the voodoo priest, she provides information that convinces Dante of what he must do. And soon. And alone. But will Erin allow her mate, her lover to put himself in danger when it could mean both their lives?
Not sure how she does it but Helen Hardt has created another sit on the edge of your seat, bite your nails page turner! One that will have your anxiety up there and you screaming for it not to end! This continuation may just be the most suspenseful yet! It will definitely have you screaming for more! Bravo Helen, no one could have done it better! Wow!

Dante Gabriel and Erin Hamilton
OMG, Helen has done it again. In the 12th book of the Blood Bond Saga, there is more questions asked, to go with all the other questions put forth before.
Another surprising visitor comes calling on, Dante and Erin. What could this person bring to the table, that could help in the search for, Emilia, Lucy, Braedon and the others?
Erin and Dante go once again to visit, Bea, the voodoo priestess, and this time, Dante realizes what he had to do, and that it needs to be done soon and alone.
WOW, what a cliffhanger!!! This has got to be the wildest one yet...
Now, to wait for the rest of the story. Is it May yet?
Nothing less than 5 large stars awarded for this masterpiece.

High Stakes Decision
Dante and Erin are inundated with more questions as to their Blood Bond to each other and how to find the missing women. A new stranger in introduced into their midst that drops even more mystery to the riddles that Dante and Erin are trying to find answers for. Dante is frustrated and impatient to learn or wait for these answers. He comes to a conclusion that he needs to take matters into his own hand. He realizes that there could be dire results, but he has to risk it.
The suspense spiraling toward the end of this instalment of the story had me pulling at my hair. Helen drives this heartstopper to the ultimate of cliffhangers thus far.

Once again I find myself saying the same thing ..... this 12th installment of The Blood Bond is an amazingly mysterious and frustratingly awesome story.
Dante, Erin and the gang find themselves in the middle of a very hairy situation.
With many of the questions answered there are now even more questions that are popping up.
Who is and what does the man who came to visit Dante and Erin want?
What will happen to make the book open?
Who is actually the Queen??
What the heck was Bea saying?? ( I can never understand her twisting of the truth) l
And OMG ... that ending was heartbreaking fir Dante and Erin....
Is it May yet??? As much as I cannot wait till the conclusion I will be sad that this series will be ending.

I did not see this coming!! The end is a cliff hanger and I am really hoping the last three parts get released before May!!! I am not sure how I feel about the ending a part of me is screaming in anger hoe he could allow this to happen!!! The other part of me is telling me to breathe Helen knows what she is doing and Erin his love and light will save him!!! I am still trying to catch my breath from this amazing series!!!
January 17, 2019
Wow! Part 12 kept me riveted and screaming for more! Dante continues to fight the darkness and the search for the missing women continues. Clues are found and a surprise guest pays a visit to Dante and Erin. Bea provides some clues and cryptic answers, but there are still so many unanswered questions! Dante decides he needs to embark on a dangerous mission and the ending.......a major cliff hanger !! Leaves you screaming for more!
January 23, 2019
Dante and Erin are preparing for the biggest battle yet. Dante knows that this is something he has to do alone. Erin is willing to put herself in harms way in order to save Dante.
Loving every installment of Blood Bond and can't wait to read the next book. Helen Hardt does an amazing job of answering questions as she asks more. I know that she will wrap up the who mystery in the end but can't wait. Grab your copy of Blood Bond and start reading.

Lots of surprises in these books but I can say I haven’t been as shocked as I was at the end of this book! No spoilers here! But I did think the vampire abductor was obvious due to all the foreshadowing throughout the series and that’s OK, it seems like there is much more to her story than we know. What I am shocked about is Dante’s apparent complete transformation upon re-entering his previous home of captivity. I can’t wait for the next book to be released!
January 16, 2019
Nooooooooo!! We are so close to the answers and it’s a cliff! OMG! This is probably the best part out of all the parts written so far! I need to know what happens! Does the book open? Does Dante come out of the spell that he seems to be under? Do they find the woman? Omg. I am super stoked for the next parts of this amazing series!
January 19, 2019
Part 12, Bea the voodoo priestess has given Dante the info of what is going to be required of him and he must go it alone. He will have to do what he never thought he would do. OH HOW LONG UNTIL THE NEXT INSTALLMENT?!?! This story has an insane cliffhanger!
January 29, 2019
Another cliffhanger from Helen Hardt!! I think I have more questions now then I did before I started this installment. Who is this person that just shows up out of the blue?? What do they have to do to get the book to open? and How is Erin and Jay's Mom handling everything that they have told her? I dont think I can wait until the next installment to find out my answers. I REALLY WANT THEM NOW!!!
January 30, 2019
Dante struggles with the darkness. He is more determined than ever to find out exactly what happened to him and to rescue the women and his uncle. He goes alone to where he remembers escaping. He forbids Erin from joining him. But her, River, and Jay follow anyway. I absolutely can't wait for the next installment to find out what happens.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

Oh wow! What a pickle?!
Mysteries keep multiplying and new characters come into play. We get to meet Lucian Crowne. Our heroes use their instinct to locate the missing women and Uncle Brae. We find out who the queen is. And Dante may meet his downfall. But we are left with angst and oh crap! What will happen next?!?!

Back into the hell that was his life for a decade.

Interesting story
I’ve been reading this “books” because I found the story interesting, however the author repeats the same stuff over and over, she is just filling pages to sell more, in fact each booklet’s content its minimal, all the repetitive frases and all of he descriptions of sex take most of the contents

Clues, clues, and more clues. Blood Bond 12 is leading us up to an epic conclusion, and as is her style, Helen Hardt delivers a heart stopping page turner. Oh, and one hell of a cliffhanger! Amazing. I loved it.
January 31, 2019
I love the vampire journey. Keep you on the edge of your seat .
What I don't like is waiting 3 months for the next installment.
They are so short, why do you split the up like that. Make them at least 300 and up pages.

Blood bond or not I'm hooked!
I read the series in less than a week I'm sure! Couldn't put it down. After I finished one, I began the next! Compelling, intoxicating and had me wishing for more. I can't believe I have 3 months until the next one ! Damn!

these books kept me up all night reading. i love it because I can escape and go to a totally different place just by reading these books. i was sad that the last 3 weren't available yet. but excited when I realized that they come out on my birthday. I've already pre-ordered the last books.
June 24, 2019
I really love this series. I love supernatural stories and this just keeps adding in more and more elements with all its twists. Each book does end on a great cliff. I probably would really like it if they were all together in one larger story.

“I have returned..”
Wow..finally we are getting to the meat of the story...everything we have been waiting on is coming out. I wish this was one book but it does leave a little mystery every time you finish one and go to the other.
