From a story perspective, the second installment of Quinn and friends is probably worth a rating of 3.5 or even 4. And, wow, does it end on a cliff-hanger. I'm really glad that I have book three sitting on my bookshelf already.
The lower rating is because I found the sudden changes in pace a little disconcerting a lot of the time. There were chapters where something undramatic was happening - a conversation, perhaps - and then suddenly in the very next sentence of that same chapter the same character was suddenly running through a forest or a street on some suddenly urgent mission. The same thing seemed to happen whenever any star-crossed lovers were in proximity to each other: there is a lot of angst when it comes to relationships in this story.
So some good parts and some not-as-good parts, but nonetheless, I'll be continuing with the series. And I look forward to doing so :)

Les choses s’accélèrent pour les gardiens et pas dans le bon sens. Chaque clan protégé par la cité est en danger et un traître à donné la clé de leur emplacement à la plus cruelles des vampires. Quinn a découvert la vérité sur la mort de sa sœur et cela bouleverse tout l’ordre établi. Ses convictions ancrées en elle depuis l’enfance l’ont empêchée de répondre aux sentiments de Drake qui bascule du côté sombre.
La fin de ce tome nous laisse sur un sacré cliffhanger avec une question…la cité va-t-elle tomber ?

This is the second hook out of 4 and is actually all just part of one big book. I appreciate though the smaller books. The story continues of Summerfield and Guinn embracing her true guardianship. She is split in her love of 2 men and what the implications are of her choice...

Honestly I think I gulped this book down. It was INCREDIBLE !!!! Melissa Delport is an absolute master. The story grips you and just doesn't let go.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in this series and couldn't wait to read book two.
Following on from the previous book we find Quinn seemingly settling for the life she has as a Guardian, and attempting to move on following the events which began with her sisters' death. Her niece and nephew are happy in their new lives, and they still have contact with both Quinn and their father, Tristan.
But life doesn't always go the way you want, and Quinn soon finds herself stuck between a rock and a hard place, so to speak. The decisions she makes will determine not only her future happiness, but the futures of others.
There are new people to meet, more background stories to discover, and a cliffhanger ending which had me moving immediately to book three.
I can't wait to read the next part.

A wonderful series this is, a 4.75 stars out of 5 stars. Loved the second book. Loved reading how Quinn would be survive and struggle to save all that she loves, and finding out who or what is betraying them. Can't wait to carry on with the series. Hopefully I'll love it till the end.
I love the writing style and the fact that Melissa Delport doesn't tell me which character's head we're in, I love the fact that with her writing I can tell and be able to stay along with the story. The best part I found about the story, is the world. I love everything about the world she has created, and can't wait to dive deeper into the world with her amazing characters!!

Holy cliff hanger. I have no words to explain just how much I enjoyed the read.
Although the Drake and Quinn happenings suck, but given that there are more books in the series I can hang onto some hope. Not surprised at knowing more about Isiah, but he's backstory person...now that was unexpected. I know I should be team Q and T, but no...it's just wrong.
Can't wait to read the next one. Hopefully we'll learn some more about the other Guardian's, the traitor is found...and the Drake and Quinn story works out the way I want it too.

This, the second book in the series, was jam-packed with action right from the first chapter up until the cliffhanger of an ending.
The characters are superbly written, the storyline moves at a breakneck speed and I honestly stayed up into the early hours of the morning because I simply could not put it down!

As the series continues, I'm being drawn further into this fascinating, mythical world that Quinn calls home. I love the fantasy genre & Melissa has written a superb second book. As the story unfolds it just keeps getting better & better & I'm sure book three will be brilliant with many twists & turns. I can't wait to read the next one..........

Oh, it ends on such a cliffhanger! Got to start the next soon! I have so many questions but will read the next to see if they are then answered. There are so many plot turns and kicks that it flies by so quickly and you don't believe you have finished already.Thank you Melissa for a wonderful story. I hope the good "guys" (even if they are "bad good guys") win.
