Publisher's summary

My secrets are infested with infatuation. His cravings are dripping in blood. Is it love? Or is it something much darker . . . An obsession. Death found me as a young girl. Latching onto the core of my soul. No one knows what that horrid night did to me. What kind of monster it flourished inside me. I'd become a ghost, hiding from the world so that people would never find out about the morbid desire I harbor. Until he noticed me. Thatcher Alexander Pierson: Cunning. Sharp. Beautiful. A man bred from the seed of a serial killer. Stitched together with old money and Dolce & Gabbana clothing. He is my strongest fixation. My sweetest, darkest addiction. And I'm his phantom. I have haunted him my entire life and now? He sees me for exactly what I am. A killer. I sicken him. But he has always mesmerized me.

When a copycat murderer prowls among the trees of Ponderosa Springs, our loyalty is tested. It had been foolish of us to believe our revenge would go unpunished. That the town wouldn't retaliate after what we did. With our lives hanging in the balance, Thatcher and I have no choice but to coexist. In the twilight of musty cabins and haunted library towers, my somber secrets are exposed, and his cravings are revealed. So the question is . . . What is love without obsession?

Contains mature themes.

Love this series!

Lucy and Grayson really do a great job with Lyra and Thatcher. I am so excited to listen to the next book! I love the story and Ponderosa Springs.

I didn’t think I was into blood until…

Although I’m bummed to realize this story is split into 2 books (the second of which is not yet available in audio, and this first ends on a cliffhanger), Thatch & Lyra’s story is by far my favorite in this series! Their characters are so complex - my heart ached for them.

Grayson Owens narration of Thatcher makes him leap out of the story and grab hold of you from start to finish. Lucy Rivers brings a level of excitement to the adorable bug girl, that is Lyra.

I only wish this was duet narration - I’m not a fan of Lucy’s male voices, but great story nonetheless. Will be purchasing the 2nd part in paperback!

OMGGG THE PLOT

This book was SO GOOD. I’m obsessed with the plot line through Thatcher & Lyra’s story. I can’t wait to start part 2.

🖤🖤🖤

The Blood We Crave is the 3rd book in The Hollow Boys interconnected series. Highly recommend you reading the two prior as the plot continues in this book but now we get an inside look of Lyra and Thatcher. After meeting each other one devastating night their path is forever tethered to each other. While most people are afraid of Thatcher, Lyra is obsessed and enchanted by him. But Thatcher has conflicting feelings and an urge to both kill and possessed Lyra. The suspense, mystery and angst was so good, but that cliffhanger was very unexpected. Luckily part two should be coming out shortly after the release of part one.

Cliff hanger so bloody good

What can I say? I’m blood thirsty and this book has quenched my thirst. So deliciously good! I’m obsessed with Hollow Boys! I’ve read and listened to these books in record time.
