Taste Of Grief
Posted by solitaireparke
Wow, I swear it was just yesterday that I wrote my last blog post! If only this Arizona Summer would pass as quickly as this last week! 🙂 Anyway, I just recently finished reading the third book in the Just One Bite Series, “Taste Of Grief”, and wanted to give a shout out to my friend and extremely talented indie author, Kay Glass!
TASTE OF GRIEF by Kay Glass (Just One Bite Series – Book #3)
Here’s the description:
Diandra and Lizbeth are back, and this time things are very different. Cocaine overdose victims are turning up in Bethany Beach and Lizbeth and Alexar are busy trying to clean it up. But when a surprising twist turns the case upside down, Lizbeth may have to compromise all she holds dear to make things right.
District Attorney Giles Carson has plans for Lizbeth, as well. He’s not done with her, and he’s not forgiven her for ruining his clandestine efforts. Now a death threat hangs over her head and Diandra won’t just stand aside and let someone come between her and the woman she loves.
The more things change, the more they stay the same- until they change again with just another bite.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Taste of Grief (Just one Bite, #3) by Kay Glass is the third installment in this series
and closes the original saga which incorporated Love Bite and Bitten By Regret. Each of the main characters are delved into more fully (I love really getting into the story’s primary people) and the plots and sub plots are finally exposed.
There’s a couple of spoilers so I won’t go into detail about the ending, but I will tell you this; This trilogy rocked! The books just kept getting better, and I can’t wait to see what Kay does next! If you’re into vampires, you’ve got to read “Just One Bite.”

Hello Everyone! I hope you are all having a great weekend! I apologize for going on hiatus for the last two weeks…I won’t trouble you with specifics, but let’s just say that I was caught up in some family drama. But I am back and raring to go!!
