Great second part of the story. But it took to long to tell us who Jolly, Jewel, and Colt were. And then a HUGE cliffhanger....aaarrgghhh. Where's the 3rd part?

I was enthralled with the first book but the second had me addicted. I just have to know what happens next. Does Shane save Rowan? Do they get they're happy ever after? Is justin really kidnapped? I really have to know lol.
It's a must read and would recommend these books to any of my friends.

Shane had learned a big secret from Rowan, Justin was her son. Giving her some much needed space, to her thoughts in order Shane leaves her alone, but he can't stop thinking about her and he decides is time to let her know how he feels about her.
Rowan knows is a matter of time she and Justin have to run again, just as she was loving this new life she had going on, especially since Shane was in it. But she knows better than get used to one place and let her guard down.
A new threat forces Rowan to come clean with Shane and she tells him her horrific past, now not only has she has to think about her and Justin's safety she has to think about Shane, the only man she has ever loved.
Can Shane help Rowan and Justin have their peace they diserve or Will she run away from the man she loves?

I can't wait to learn how this ends!!

*~* I received an ARC in exchange for a honest review *~*
WOW... That was not what I was expecting to be her secret or the back story to it!!!
I love how Rowan is finally opening up to Shane. She is strong and fighting for what she wants. I love how the relationship with her and Shane are developing. I also really like the way her relationship is with Justin as well.
Shane is really good for her. I like that he knows when to giver her space and when to push her. I really like how he is showing her how a real man should be and not what she has known. The way he is with her and Justin is really great. I like that him and his partners have really taken a liking to Justin to show him all of his potential.
Sydney has done an AMAZING job with keeping the pace of the story development and giving you just enough to want to know more. I have to say that I can't wait to see how this all ends.

This is the second book I have read by this author. I thought book one Escape was a roller coaster, book two Escape Two is even more of a ride that brings a shock wave. This book was more intense than book one if that is possible. The story and writing just hits your heart with full force that you just fall totally in love with Shane and Rowan. As I told the author you find your self shouting to the characters, but they don't listen well to you. Thank you Sydney Holmes for another amazing book I am looking forward to reading Escape three.

Although I have not read Escape Part One, I did not feel that I was lost with what was happening so I would call this a stand alone book. Rowan is trying to build a life for herself but the past keeps trying to intrude. Will she have to run again? The ending leaves you wanting to grab Escape Part Three and read it right away.
I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.

Rowan come on now!! I wanted more of her history. How was she trained. How was Justin trained. I wanted more. Shane and Rob and Cody are working hard and was she betrayed by one of them. Maybe, she was seen by Cody or Rob at the end. Another good cliffhanger. Let's see what a happens.

Not much better than book 1, i didnt couldn't get away with it, i felt a bit lost with it all, the past keeps interrupting her current life etc, its predictable. I hate cliffhangers
