"In BETRAYED (Book #3 in the Vampire Journals), Caitlin Paine awakes from a deep coma to discover she has been turned. Now a true, full-bred vampire, she marvels at her new powers, including her ability to fly, and her superhuman strength. She finds that her true love, Caleb, is still by her side, waiting patiently for her to recover. She has everything she could dream of. Until it all, suddenly, goes terribly wrong. Caitlin is horrified to discover Caleb with his ex-wife, Sera, and before Caleb has a chance to explain, Caitlin tells him to leave. Heartbroken, confused, Caitlin wants to curl up and die, her only consolation being in her wolf-pup Rose. Caitlin also finds consolation in her new surroundings. She finds she has been placed on a hidden island in the Hudson River—Pollepel—amidst an elite coven of teenage vampires, boys and girls alike, 24 in all, including her. She learns that this is a place for outcasts, just like her, and as she meets her new best friend, Polly, and begins her training in elite vampire combat, she realizes that she might finally have a place to call home. But a major vampire war is looming, and her brother Sam is still out there, kidnapped by Samantha. The evil Kyle, too, now wielding the mythical Sword, is still on the warpath, and he will stop at nothing to wipe out New York. Caitlin, despite her new home, and despite her finding a new love interest in the elusive vampire Blake, knows that she can only stay on this island for so long before her destiny calls. After all, she is still the One, and all eyes still look to her to find her father and the other weapon that might save them all. Torn between her new friends and her lingering feelings for Caleb, she must come to decide where her true loyalties lie, and whether she is willing to risk it all to try to find Caleb and have him in her life once again…. BETRAYED is Book #3 in the Vampire Journals (following TURNED and LOVED), and yet it also stands alone as a self-contained novel. BETRAYED is over 60,000 words."

My Blurb:
Caitlin awakens to find herself a full fledged Vampire, turned by her love Caleb, and on a island not so far from home. The one person she did not expect to awaken to is Sera, Caleb's wife, and is shocked to find them back together again.
Heartbroken Caitlin vows to never see Caleb again as Caleb professes his love for her and only her before flying off into a Vampire War that may end the lives of everyone, human and Vampire.
Caitlin's journey has just begun as she finds new friends, starts training and receives a letter that changes everything.
Lets Talk About It:
This book had so many twists and turns to it that kept me on the edge of my seat!
I immensely enjoyed the different characters that were brought to light. Polly, Aiden, Blake, I even ended up enjoying Sera. It felt like Caitlin really found a home with the Pollepel Coven and the time she spent there was enjoyable to read.
The ending of this book had me in tears. So much death. So much grief. Such heartache. And what a fantastic cliff hanger ending. I am SO happy I had book 4 on my hands to start reading immediately after otherwise it probably would have driven me mad having to wait to find out what happens next.
I'm a huge fan now of Morgan Rice and hope that The Vampire Journal series continues to churn out many more books.
Where to Buy:
After receiving Turned for review I bought the rest of the series. So this review is on me!
