Blood Trade by Faith Hunter

3.0

Jane is still tied to Leo after the force feeding, that Bruiser helped with. Even though Jane knows he was under Leo's power, and helpless to resist she can't forget or forgive the betrayal. Ricky is still angry at Jane for accusing him of trying to kill her, and Beast is not happy. Both of the men that Beast sees as her mates, are inaccessible. When Jane gets a job in Mississippi killing the Naturaleza vamps, her, Eli, and the Kid head out to take care of the problem. What she doesn't expect is to find vamps immune to silver, and one of her childhood friends caught up in the trouble.



***Spoilers***
Misha, her daughter Charly, and Bobby another friend from their group home meet up with Jane to discuss the book Misha is writing. What Misha fails to tell Jane is that she is a witch, searching for a vamp to heal her daughter who is dying of cancer. When Misha disappears, leaving Charly and Bobby in her custody, Jane realizes that Bobby (a grown man with the mind of a ten year old) has magical gifts. His prophetic dreams, and magical abilities eventually help Jane to discover where Misha and many other witches are being held captive, powering a very powerful circle the vamps are using to transform other vampires. Ricky and Bruiser are still at each others throats over Jane, even though none of them are together. Eli, Jane and the Kid, are all close as family, and the two end up buying in to Jane's business and becoming partners. In the end, Jane is forced to call in Big Evan, a sorcerer and husband to her ex-best friend Molly, to help them take apart the circle holding the witches captive. They have a heart to heart, which leads me to believe their friendship is still salvageable.
