The Blue Bloods are back…more fanged and fabulous than ever.

After defeating Lucifer and sacrificing the love of her life, Jack, Schuyler wakes up back in New York safe and sound. Only it’s not quite the New York she knows, and she’s not in her regular body. She looks different and feels different and so does everyone else. Schuyler soon discovers that in this world, her best friend has a different last name, her parents are both alive and well and one of them is an entirely different person, and the love of her life? Not so dead after all. The catch? Jack has no idea who she is.

As it turns out, Schuyler is not in her New York. She’s not even in her universe. This is an alternate reality. One where Lucifer is alive and well and acting as mayor of New York, Blue Bloods are luring humans to clinics to drain their blood, and Jack is Lucifer’s right hand man. Just when she thinks all is lost, Schuyler is contacted by a familiar friend―the Silver Blood, Kingsley. The Kingsley from her world. He actually remembers the Schuyler she used to be! But he also has a theory, and it’s one she doesn’t like. That Schuyler was sent here to defeat Lucifer. Again. And that she’s the only person in this universe or any universe that can defeat him.

Review

I had forgotten how much I love Melissa de la Cruz’s series! It’s been a while since I’ve revisited her world, but oh what a ride! There’s so much to enjoy, even after all of these years. Schuyler wakes up in a completely different year, with a new name, a new mother and her old memories are co-exisiting in her mind. A parallel existence. Oliver is the same lovable librarian and familiar, but Jack…he has no idea who she is. Readers get a chance to see the two meet all over again. The only chance Jack has is if Schuyler’s light can outshine his darkness and overcome the forces seeking power and dominance in another time and place.

De la Cruz is brilliant with her mixture of paranormal elements, Hollywood culture and the evils of politics. There is a pandemic of global proportions going, which readers will relate to since we just exited one. Told form two points of view, we get insight to both Schuyler and Max’s minds as a well as a small third glimpse at Oliver’s mindset at the end. Action packed, rich with character. I am so happy to see the series continuing on! Thanks so much to Disney Hyperion and Rockstar tours for the complimentary copy for review. If you’ve never read the Blue Bloods books, it’s time to pick them up!
