I am so excited to participate in this blog tour. I love Alexia and her books are amazing. So let's get started and get to know Alexia and learn more about her books.
Alexia currently lives in Las Vegas ,
Nevada –Sin City

Book 1:
"Never tease anything that wants to eat you.
My name is April Tate and my blood is the new gold. Vampires and hybrids have
overrun my world, once vibrant with life, but now a graveyard of death shrouded
in shadows. I fight to survive; I fight for my mother and brother. The journey
is full of turns that I am quite unprepared for. And I'm just hoping to make it
to the next Vegas sunrise..."
In a post-apocalyptic world, a viral
epidemic has wiped out most of the earth’s population, leaving behind few humans
but untold numbers of mutated vampires. April is a seventeen-year-old girl who
lives in the remains of Las Vegas one year after the outbreak. She has become a
ferocious vampire killer and after her family is abducted, she goes searching
for them. What she finds is a new breed of vampire, unlike any she has seen
before. Unsure of whom she can trust, she discovers that her view of the world
is not as black and white as she once thought, and she's willing to bend the
rules to rescue her family. But in trying to save them, she may only succeed in
bringing her fragile world crashing down around her.
My Review:
Wow what a ride. In a genre filled with zombie apocalypse
having a book about a vampire apocalypse is so refreshing. I got sucked in from
the first line. “Never tease anything that wants to eat you.” If that doesn’t
draw you in I don’t know what will.
April, her mom, and her six year old brother are all that is
left of the human race living everyday not knowing if it’s their last in the
fight with the wildlings. While out one day to get more supplies her mom and
brother go missing. April goes crazy trying to find them and in her quest to
take out as many wildling vampires she meets a new breed of vampire a hybrid.
April doesn’t know if she can trust Miranda but if she wants her family back
than she has to go against everything she believes and trust a hive of hybrid
vampires. In doing so she learns so much more about wildlings, hybrids, and
herself. For April and her family are not entirely human themselves. April also
meets Rye
I loved every second of this action packed ride Alexia took
me on. I found myself admiring April for all her strengths and even her faults.
I found myself forgetting at times that she is only seventeen and has seen more
death and destruction than most people will ever see. I don’t know how I would
react if I was in April’s place having to fight everyday to survive. April is
so well written that I could feel all her pain and confusion through out the
whole book. The side characters are written just as well. We get to know them
just as well. One in particular named Rye Rye
If you are looking for a new apocalyptic book then
this book is for you. Alexia is defiantly an author to watch out for. She is on
my must buy list and she should be on yours. 5/5 Bloody Fangs

Book 2:
The world has changed. One must adapt to
survive or hold on to the crumbling shards of humanity.
April continues
to hold her fragile world together, but the ties that hold her family together
are quickly unraveling. Rumors of a massive human underground settlement draw
her to the shadows of the city once more in search of other survivors more like
her, even with the hybrid vampires opposing her every move.
The darkness
hides secrets along with the continued threat the Feral Vampires create, but a
greater evil hides within the city. Something tells April that the humans will
be less than welcoming of her, and that's if she can find them before the
Vampires do. Joining sides with the enemy might be the only choice she has left.
Excerpt 1:
In the distance, the
snarls and moans of the feral vampires filled the air as they descended from
their daylight tombs. It sent a different kind of shiver down my spine as I
concentrated on breathing deeply, attempting to slow my frantic heartbeat down.
It was unnerving, sleeping in the middle of the city, surrounded by fangs and
death. I hated this and doubted I would get much sleep tonight, if any. I’d
just have to do without.
“Going to be a long
night, try to sleep some.” Rye
“Okay.”
Excerpt 2:
The woman, or girl—he
wasn’t quite sure for he hadn’t asked her what her age was, though it seemed
pretty certain that she was in her late teens, maybe early twenties—made her
way in easily. She slipped quietly into the rear of one of the main
greenhouses. It was lit up in there like twilight all night long with the full
spectrum of light slowly growing as daybreak came. It was sufficient to see a
lot of the floor, though the foliage and abundance of greenery would be
sufficient to hide her for a while. Elijah knew she had figured this out and
was now weaving her way through jagged rows of saplings, fruit and eucalyptus trees.
Her black clothing hid her enough that no one noticed the svelte woman dodging
people, sticking to the shadows and snapping quick, concise pictures of
everything she saw.
She’s studying us.
Elijah shook his head,
amused by this revelation. Of all things, this human was studying other humans!
Ha! But what for? What did she want to do with those pictures? Why didn’t she
just waltz right up to the door and introduce herself? She was definitely human
and might have been welcomed.
Or maybe not. He frowned.
Katrina was volatile and could decide she was a threat to the city instead. And
what if she was a hybrid human? Could she be?
My Review:
Once again Alexia has sucked me into her world and had me
forgetting everything around me until the very last page and then left me heart
broken and begging her for book three.
Disarming picks up right where Reign of Blood left off. With
April still confused about her feelings for Rye Rye
I loved this book from the first page to the last. We get to
see so much more of April and the way she thinks and feels but at times I
wanted to just smack her for the way she treats Rye Rye Rye
If your looking for a heart pounding, emotion pulling, heart
breaking book that will leave you begging for more then read Disarming. I
promise you won’t be disappointed. 5/5 Bloody Fangs
