For the Love of a Vampire (Blood Like Poison #1) by M. Leighton

 So I am late in posting my Indie Author of the week but that doesn't make this week's (or rather last weeks) choice any less spactacular, in fact it just might be the opposite. I had so much fun reading this book. M. Leighton is a very talented author and I look forward to reading the next book in the series. She made a fan out of me!


Title: For the Love of a Vampire (Blood Like Poison #1)
Author: M Leighton
Published By: Self Published (April 20, 2011)
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
My Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Goodreads Description: 
Like most seventeen year olds, Ridley Heller thought she had her future all planned out. What she wanted most in life was to get out of small town Harker. Her only goal was to keep her mouth shut and her grades high so she could win a cheerleading scholarship to Stanford. But that was before she met Bo.

In Ridley's wildest dreams, she could never have planned for someone like Bo, for a love so intense it left her breathless. No human girl could.

A haunting stranger that watched her from afar, Bo stole Ridley's heart from the moment she laid eyes on him. But he has secrets. Bo's a vampire. Both his past and his present are a danger to Ridley, but the biggest threat is not her blood; it's her heart. He's feeding a thirst for revenge that will cost him his life, and it may already be too late.

The more darkness Ridley uncovers, the more she realizes that her life will never be the same-with or without Bo. Can she sacrifice her future and her heart for someone who has a death wish? 


My Review:
This book was amazing. By far one of the most creative vampire stories out there. Not only were the characters real but they had my attention from the get go. I found myself completely wrapped up in their lives and wanting to know more about them, even the bad guys.
I can't wait to read the sequel and just hope that I won't have to wait too long for the last book to come out. I can already tell that I will be waiting on pins and needles to see what happens next.
Leighton is a truly talented author that has a way with words that just flow right off the pages and into your heart.
