BETRAYED is book #3 in the #1 Bestselling series THE VAMPIRE JOURNALS, which begins with TURNED (Book #1)!

 

In BETRAYED (Book #3 in the Vampire Journals), Caitlin Paine awakes from a deep coma to discover she has been turned. Now a true, full-bred vampire, she marvels at her new powers, including her ability to fly, and her superhuman strength. She finds that her true love, Caleb, is still by her side, waiting patiently for her to recover. She has everything she could dream of.

 

Until it all, suddenly, goes terribly wrong.

 

Caitlin is horrified to discover Caleb with his ex-wife, Sera, and before Caleb has a chance to explain, Caitlin tells him to leave. Heartbroken, confused, Caitlin wants to curl up and die, her only consolation being in her wolf-pup Rose.

 

Caitlin also finds consolation in her new surroundings. She finds she has been placed on a hidden island in the Hudson River—Pollepel—amidst an elite coven of teenage vampires, boys and girls alike, 24 in all, including her. She learns that this is a place for outcasts, just like her, and as she meets her new best friend, Polly, and begins her training in elite vampire combat, she realizes that she might finally have a place to call home.

 

But a major vampire war is looming, and her brother Sam is still out there, kidnapped by Samantha. The evil Kyle, too, now wielding the mythical Sword, is still on the warpath, and he will stop at nothing to wipe out New York. Caitlin, despite her new home, and despite her finding a new love interest in the elusive vampire Blake, knows that she can only stay on this island for so long before her destiny calls. After all, she is still the One, and all eyes still look to her to find her father and the other weapon that might save them all.

 

Torn between her new friends and her lingering feelings for Caleb, she must come to decide where her true loyalties lie, and whether she is willing to risk it all to try to find Caleb and have him in her life once again….

Ratings and reviews

I really like the book but it made me angry as well! Yes I know they are fiction but Caitlin pissed me off by not giving Caleb a chance to speak after everything he did for her. Then the ending! OMG, I knew that was going to happen, I won't spoil anything though! Also, why change narrative? The other person was better in my opinion. Sam and Samantha, how does she start off being a strong don't give a f*** vampire to some whiny love sick girl over Sam? That was unnecessary, good book tho.

I LOVE Morgan Rice and all her books. The only problem I have is how it repeats a LOT and contradicts even more. It would be refreshing to have different phrases and words. Thank you Morgan for sharing your worlds! ♥️

Listened to first three books, quite enjoyed the story line but the narrator is absolutely terrible, worst I have ever heard. This accounts for low score.
