Hey, that was quick. Thanks for the RABCK, Ceroc-Monster. I've been reading a lot of paranormal stuff lately.
I couldn't finish this, it is black & foul. Too icky for me.
Back cover blurb:
Born, not bled... Vampires, as they are now - parasites, an ancient disease brought from old Europe to America; keeping themselves private, hiding themselves cleverly, in the modern world... The Pacific north-west - a society dealing with the menace, a place of legislated eradication centres, created to cope with every aspect of this curse... The evolution of the scourge - for vampires are changing. They can now make children. And the children, born, not bled, into being, hide their true nature until well into adulthood - and have a power nothing can match...
Sins of the Blood - the story of vampire-eradicator Cammie - 'I remember my degree, my entire training. Nothing mentioned the children' - and of Ben - 'He was hungry, so hungry. But humans didn't respond like that'... The story of the terror that comes into Cammie's and Ben's lives - and of the horrors that they share...

I agree, cats - black and foul just about covers it. And the end was lame, so you didn't miss much. Such a pity, because the overarching premise - vampirism as a criminal disease brought back from WWI and II, and the power of the hereditary bloodline - could have been so good, but it was all just kind of lame and smutty.
I would normally balk at sending fairy-whispers such a bad book, but well, you asked for it... off as an Oz VBB pick.

Sins of the Blood is a unique take on the vampire legend, but it could have been better. I liked the general premise (that vampirism is a condition of the body, not a condition of the soul) but the book, though technically well-written, lacked a certain something. It just didn't capture me the way it should have. I enjoyed it as far as it went, but I wouldn't read it again.
