Like most seventeen year olds, Ridley Heller thought she had her future all planned out. What she wanted most in life was to get out of small town Harker. Her only goal was to keep her mouth shut and her grades high so she could win a cheerleading scholarship to Stanford. But that was before she met Bo.
In Ridley's wildest dreams, she could never have planned for someone like Bo, for a love so intense it left her breathless. No human girl could.
A haunting stranger that watched her from afar, Bo stole Ridley's heart from the moment she laid eyes on him. But he has secrets. Bo's a vampire. Both his past and his present are a danger to Ridley, but the biggest threat is not her blood; it's her heart. He's feeding a thirst for revenge that will cost him his life, and it may already be too late.
The more darkness Ridley uncovers, the more she realizes that her life will never be the same-with or without Bo. Can she sacrifice her future and her heart for someone who has a death wish?

Blood Like Poison is a trilogy series that centers the around Ridley, a oridinary seventeen year old girl. She puts up with a horny boyfriend, bitchy cheerleader "friends", and trying to figure out the new mysterious creepy stalker guy, Bo. When Bo finally decides to open up, Ridley learns some secrets that just may be life-altering! Bo, is in fact a vampire! Yikes! (In a good way!)
M. Leighton really wowed me and made me wish I was Ridley over and over again! I mean come on! Bo is to DIE for. ;) Bo was a well put together character, even though fictional, he was believable! Ridley was as well, even though a little whinney at times, I understood why she was like that. (I would have lay down and died if I went through what she went through! And to see how she found out about Bo being a vampire and all was just like WHAT! RUN! No, wait, stay. NO! RUN! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! Wait, this is hot Bo we are talking about. It was quite comical how I was feeling about Bo in this scene and what was running through me silly little mind.
Overall this was an amazing read and I loved the adventure the amazing M. Leighton took me on! She as an eceptional writer and after reading this whole series in a couple of sittings (I had to catch up on laundry, House, Glee, and FOOD!) I cannot wait to see what she has in store for us next! I very much consider you picking up this book and devouring it much like I had! It will not dissapoing you! :)
