Wow, I just finished the book and I'm stunned. So many twists and turns, you really don't know what's going to happen, who's a bad guy or who isn't.... amazing writing.

World-building is great, scenes and environments are well described, very detailed and diverse. Moving back to familiar haunts from the first book, building up our view of the world and the people and species living there.

Character development is excellent. We follow our main heroine Riley throughout different ordeals, throughout tough decisions and here thoughts and feelings concerning her life, work and her lovers.
The rest of our cast have a lot to say, layers of lies, deceit, feelings, love, honour,... all mixed up making a very rich and entertaining story.

Pacing and flow were great, a hell of a lot action, just enough downtime to catch your breath and be bewildered about the last turn of events.

The book in itself was well written, no major errors found, the small ones (while sometimes a tad annoying) didn't pull me out of the story. And yes, there is sex described in this book... a lot of is, though not over the top.

All in all, a hell of a book, loving this series!!! Very much looking forward to the next instalment. ( )

So Riley's 2 mates were using her.. there's a crazy plan afoot to get her.
Quinn's back and he's totally a judgemental jerk- not listening to her.. it's not cool.
Kade seems to be the only one taking care of her.
Kellen is a fun new wolf for her to play with.

She's slowly coming to grips with her vampire side.

There's a *lot* of non-con going on in this series. It's somewhat made up for - at least for me, where non-con gets my hackles up - by having a pretty darn decent world build. ( )

This story opens with the 'oh-so-familiar-it-hurts-scene-of' the protagonist waking up in a strange place with no idea how they got there. There were foreshadowings of it in the previous book so it wasn't too forced and it did work quite well to get the action moving pretty much immediately.

Riley's hormones are running wild again and we meet a hot new partner for her. I don't actually have a problem with her sexual escapades as Keri Arthur's set it up so it makes sense in context.. it also helps lead to some really yummy tension between Riley & Quinn (yes he's still around) and as I've read some of the Dark Angels series which is set later in time I'm aware of the shape of her life at that time so it's interesting indeed to 'watch' the seeds.

This particular book is mainly set in and around Melbourne again (despite commencing waaay out of town) but things are being set up nicely for another 'excursion' in the next book. Yeah... I liked this. ( )

ok I liked this book better than the first, however I'm still nit sure on the whole sex bit but I guess that I should be good with after reading Anita Blake. I'm curious on what direction this series is going because on one hand she gas Quinn and now she's seeking the alpha wolf, whom I do not trust one bit. then I'm curious to see what she becomes with her altered DNA. should be interesting.
