What a thrill ride of a read! Madison Rose is back and the tension between her and Mike or Collin is palpable! This plot had me hooked. It also broadened the backstory of a lot of the major characters in the series. Am excited to read the next installment! Can't wait to sink my teeth into it!

Baited Blood was a really good follow up to the first book. It seems every author today has their own spin on the vampire genre. Jaffarian definitely has her own set of rules. First of all you need to have a specific kind of life line in order to become a vampire. Her vampires can be awake during the day, but they don't sparkle and they are oh so civilized. In this book Madison Rose discovers a body in the pool of her "grandparents" the vampires she lives with the Dedhams. More bodies follow and she and the council must solve this mystery. She is helped along by her friends and love interests, Mike Notchey a human police officer. As well as Colin Reddy the second in command on the council and the leader of the council Samuel. Madison works hard to solve the mystery and along the way she finds time to add a little romance to her life.

The Madison Rose series is a pleasant surprise. With all the Vampire and paranormal romance books out right now, it is hard to find books that are not completely formulaic. These books are mysteries rather than romances and have interesting and intriguing characters. Fun, quick reads that have not been dumbed down to accommodate the lowest common denominator. These are much more along the Stephanie Plum or Kinsey Milhome lines, rather than being Twilight-esque redundancies. Already a fan of Jaffarian's Odelia Grey mysteries, I am enjoying this series as well.

I wasn't too sure about this series when I read the first one, but after reading the second one, I have to say I'm liking it quite a bit. The mystery is a good one and the characters are interesting to read about, and care about in some cases. I look forward to a third book.
