Blue Bloods (Blue Bloods #1)

by Melissa de la Cruz (Goodreads Author)

When the Mayflower set sail in 1620, it carried on board the men and women who would shape America: Miles Standish; John Alden; Constance Hopkins. But some among the Pilgrims were not pure of heart; they were not escaping religious persecution. Indeed, they were not even human. They were vampires.The vampires assimilated quickly into the New World. Rising to levels of enormous power, wealth, and influence, they were the celebrated blue bloods of American society.

The Blue Bloods vowed that their immortal status would remain a closely guarded secret. And they kept that secret for centuries. But now, in New York City, the secret is seeping out.

Being the unobservant teen that I was, I didn’t notice the obvious bite marks as part of the cover art. The vampiric theme, therefore, was a pleasant surprise to me as the story developed. This is an interesting new take on a familiar supernatural being. Fun and thrilling at the same time.
