Excellent read! Highly recommended.
Both one and two of this story was riveting. Sometimes the second installment in a story is disappointing . This one kept you captivated thru both . I liked it has some dry humor. All the characters were believable. Can't wait for book 3.

I've loved the first two books, I need to know what happens to Val and Alex. I'll keep a lookout for the next book.
