Blood Lust — Britney S. Lewis

After the Blood Moon rose, the world as Mira knew it shattered. Her family history, her powers, and the legends she once dismissed as fairy tales are now terrifyingly real. And being the only known Dhampir—a rare half-human, half-vampire hybrid—has made her a target.Confined and kept under watch by friends and family, Mira grapples with her burgeoning hunger for blood. This new “normal” is confusing and conflicting—not to mention the strange Julian-related dreams she has every night. When the people she loves are taken by a new, dangerous enemy, Mira has no choice but to brave a deadly world of vampire royalty and violent trials. Julian is at her side, but trusting him is another matter entirely. The war is coming. The time for hiding is over. To survive, Mira will have to tap into the monstrous side of her that she fears—or risk losing everything.
