Blog Tour: Innocence Reclaimed by Helen Johnston

Blurb:

Delve deeper into the journey ...

Siobhan remains in the clutches of Monique, trapped in her French chateau; her body drawn into a world of sensual and sexual awakening. Torn from Blake's arms, will she ever see him again?

Jarryd, sworn to protect Siobhan for the Elder Blake, continues to feel overwhelming emotions that he thought were long dead. The passion and desire, his love for her, he knows is futile. A happily ever after with her would be the signing of his own death warrant.

Will Monique's plans for Siobhan reach fruition as the Elders' party draws closer, gathering them together once a century? Will hell on earth reign supreme? Or will Blake, one of the most powerful and charismatic Elders, be able to hold his restraint until the perfect time to rescue his love?

Rating: ☆☆☆☆

"Innocence Reclaimed" is the second in this series that follows Siobhan's story. Siobhan is in love with the Vampire Blake but has been captured by the evil Monique who is determined to turn her as part of a massive plot to get revenge against Blake. In the meantime Monique is holding her hostage as part of some BDSM club and she is being used in whatever way they say. Protected by two of Blake's closest allies and magic while Blake puts his plan into action, Siobhan explores her sexuality and sensuality as she experiences a range of acts.

Siobhan is a woman conflicted and torn between her love and loyalty to Blake and the feelings she has developed for her protector Jarryd. It is Jarryd, through his protection, that is helping her to explore and experience her sexuality. It is Jarryd that is there all the time for her and she is in a constant panic that this may turn Blake away from her.

Blake is a vampire of determination and incredible patience, waiting until the absolute best time to rescue Siobhan but making sure that she always protected until he can get to her. The torment he must have gone through, only seeing her on the DVDs sent to him by Monique must have been soul destroying. But this just stokes his desire for revenge even more.

So this was a story about awakening and rescuing the damsel in distress from the evil Queen. Let me say this, there were certainly lots of really hawt scenes in the Club. However, and I can't believe I'm going to say this, there were too many and they sometimes detracted from the story. The plot would be moving along but would be constantly interrupted with these scenes that seemed to go on for a long time. I loved Siobhan's strength, courage and how she came to better understand herself. I loved Blake's determination and carefully thought out plan to get Siobhan back. I loved the way that Jarryd looked out for Siobhan and I felt sorry for the fact that he probably wasn’t going to end up the lucky one. It was a great read and a great story.

Journey of Innocence,a set of three books, Innocence Lost, Innocence Reclaimed and Innocence Reborn.

It's basically a love story, the corny saying "love can conquer all." You are taken on a journey with twists in it. There are characters to fall in love with, to hate, and everything in between.

Vampires that have fangs, and do bite, but not necessarily on the neck... Plenty of hot steamy sex that will tease your senses and leave you craving more...

A little about me!

I grew up in my family's home in the County of Hampshire, England. My childhood dreams were filled with the desire to become a dancer. An only child, but I was never alone, my years were spent entertained with my vivid imagination. I met and married my husband not long after leaving school and soon after our son was born. My family is made complete with my two cats that are spoiled rotten, which results in them often thinking they rule the home.

My life consisted of home life and a few jobs in the retail industry and my vivid imagination refused to stay quiet. So combined with my love of erotica and all things vampire I decided to try my hand at writing and has never looked back.
