Quincie P. Morris, teen restaurateuse and neophyte vampire, is in the fight of her life — or undeath. Even as she adjusts to her new appetites, she must clear her best friend and true love, the hybrid werewolf Kieren, of murder charges; thwart the apocalyptic ambitions of Bradley Sanguini, the seductive vampire-chef who "blessed" her; and keep her dead parents’ restaurant up and running. She hires a more homespun chef and adds the preternaturally beautiful Zachary to her wait staff. But with hundreds of new vampires on the rise and Bradley off assuming the powers of Dracula Prime, Zachary soon reveals his true nature — and a flaming sword — and they hit the road to staunch the bloodshed before it’s too late. Even if they save the world, will there be time left to salvage Quincie’s soul? (

Blessed is the culmination of the Tantalize books so far, the ultimate showdown with Bradley. The book unites Quincie and Zachary as they try to stop Bradley from taking over and find a way to cure the unsuspecting diners from their oncoming vampirism.
I liked seeing the books come together, especially some of the side characters like Nora and Clyde meeting up. Quincie is a cute and strong character, being the only vampire to resist killing on her first feed. We also saw Quincie and Kieran reunited which made me happy and her friendship with Zachary was sweet. I feel like this book wrapped up a lot so it will be interesting to see what happens in book 4. The audiobook for this was good, I liked the different narrators for Quincie and Zachary and they both did accents well.
Short, but great series! (

I probably should have reread the rest of the series before starting this. They give a lot of catchup but not remembering much of anything I still felt kind of lost. There were parts of the book that annoyed me; some super awkward transitions that literally had me rereading sections but overall it was definitely interesting. (
