Title: The Vampire of the Prophecy
Author: Victoria Jayne
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Book Blurb:
A choice was made. Now it’s time to reap the rewards…or suffer the consequences…
It was all happening according to plan. Rori chose power over love, and as a result, put himself in the running to be the next emperor of all vampires. Then someone threatened to expose his witch (along with all other paranormal creatures) to humans…unless he gave up his claim to the throne, that is. That’s when everything fell apart. The Council has no idea what Rori did to keep Divina safe, and if they find out, the consequences will be deadly. It’ll take all his power, connections, and the help of his loyal guard to protect everyone and everything he holds dear. But with time running out and enemies circling, can Rori survive long enough to complete the prophecy and maybe—just maybe—get a second chance at true love while he’s at it?
My Review:
It all comes down to this, the prophecy. Vampire Rori is one of the few in the running to be the next emperor. Everything is falling into place, that is until he swipes right and views a video sent to him. Werewolf Aric will do anything to protect his mate, Divina. Witch Divina, once past lovers with Rori, chose Aric and the simple life he offered but all that changes when a video surfaces of her doing magic. If the video is released to the world and humans watch it, the supernatural world crashes down. The sole purpose of the Council is to prevent such crimes through vicious punishment and death. Rori and Aric both vow to protect her, no matter the consequences. But if the prophecy is true, then these three will have to trust each other in order to restore peace to the supernatural world. But as enemies surround them, it will take everything in Rori’s arsenal to fulfill the prophecy and save those he loves.
Wow, what an incredible book! I’m a huge paranormal romance reader and I was riveted to the story from the very first page. The main question of the prophecy and what it means propelled the plot beautifully. The vampire, werewolf, and witch world-building is traditional yet Victoria Jayne puts a new spin on it. The characters were so well-written, they leaped off the page. The three main characters deal with plenty of conflict and sizzling tension. Yes, there is a love triangle, but it’s told in a different light. My heart went out to Rori and I kept rooting for him. The suspense kept up the tension and it wasn’t until the very end that I felt I could exhale. The Vampire of the Prophecy is book three in this magnificent series, but it can be read on its own. The author explains in intricate detail what has taken place before so no reader will be lost. If you’re like me and looking for a paranormal romance to sink your teeth into, pick up The Vampire of the Prophecy. Highly recommend!
