Blue Bloods: Revelations

Melissa de la Cruz
2008

Schuyler Van Alen's blood legacy has just been called into question: is the young vampire in fact a Blue Blood, or is it the sinister Silver Blood that runs through her veins? As controversy swirls, Schuyler is left stranded in the Force household, trapped under the same roof as her cunning nemesis, Mimi Force, and her forbidden crush, Jack Force.

When an ancient place of power is threatened in Rio de Janeiro, however, the Blue Bloods will need Schuyler on their side. The stakes are high; the battle is bloody; and through it all Schuyler is torn between duty and passion, love and freedom.

Romance, glamour, and vampire lore collide in the highly anticipated third book in best-selling author Melissa de la Cruz’s Blue Bloods saga.

Number one lovely character of this series: Oliver. If Schuyler doesn’t love him, I will. How can I not like him? He is so dedicated to her, cared and loved her without to much thinking. Bad Schuyler.

Almost half of the book consist of Schuyler-Jack-Mimi things. I waited for the war between Blue Bloods and Silver Bloods (Thank God, there is a little war in the end of the book). Readers can only guess of what happened next, who killed the Blue Bloods, why Dylan lost his memories, blah blah blah. But I can’t change the book I’m reading. I wanna know the triangle (or square if I count Oliver) loves’ fate. So tempting with Melissa de la Cruz’s own style: confusing and making readers blind of where they’re taking to. 

I realized in this book, Cruz used “Audio Recording Archieve” part as the timeline while in book 1, she used diary of Cordelia Van Alen’s former shell. I can’t remember what she used in book 2. I think there are no such things, right? *creased my forehead to think hard* AH! I remember now. Book 2 used news from old papers about the missing Maggie Stanford.
