Warning: This is the second book in a series and this review may contain slight spoilers of the first book. After the tragic events at the end of Dark Eyes, Wally is now emancipated, living on her own and working for the Ursula Society — an organization that helps people find missing loved ones. Though Wally is only allowed to work on updating the files, she can’t help herself when Kyle, a troubled and obviously abused young man, comes into the center. She is drawn to him, and since her search for her brother, Tiger, has turned up no new leads, she needs a distraction. But there are people after Kyle — dangerous people — and by agreeing to help him, Wally’s opened herself up to even more danger, and this time, she may not get out alive. I loved Wally in the first book. She’s strong, determined, and even though her curiosity leads her into danger, I loved her impulsiveness. That Wally is still here, but there were things that happened in this book that left me scratching my head a bit. Red flags popped up early in the book, and she seemed oblivious to them. I couldn’t help but wonder why, after everything she went through in the first book, these dangers weren’t blatantly obvious to her. I also wanted more Tiger. It was nice to learn more about him, but I felt like he wasn’t in the book as much as I would have liked. I mean the book is named Tiger after all. I thought it would primarily be his story. The action is just as fast-paced as in the first book, and despite my character expectations, the story was great. I read this in a day — I couldn’t put it down. My only complaint was the abrupt cliffhanger ending. The first book ended so nicely with a hint of hope, but this one is like a hit and run. Despite a few minor flaws, I really enjoyed this book. This series is a nice change of pace for someone looking for an action-packed story that will leave you breathless. no reviews | add a review

Good title for those who like intense action, which is not in short supply, as is the violence and profanity. Feels like you're watching a Hollywood action film; after all, the author has worked as a screenwriter. I was glad I read Dark Eyes first; I definitely got more out of it as far as the background. Teens will like Wally's tough-as-nails demeanor as well a cliffhanger ending, which has me thinking another sequel is coming soon! ( )
