In Another Life 2: A Dark Secrets Novel

Dark Secrets #7.2

by Angela M. Hudson

Rule #1: Don't Break Vampire Laws "I couldn't fathom the damage that had been done to the world because he was no longer in it. Not right now. All I could understand was how deeply sad I was to have lost him. To have taken his life." They did everything they could to prevent this life. With Jase in jail and with Ara's royal identity now exposed, she is taken away to a fifteenth-century manor and forced to marry a medieval stranger. In an effort to find happiness in the misery, Ara vows to invest herself completely in this marriage and in the pursuit of becoming Queen, biding her time until Jase can be freed. Getting to know the London Set leader isn't a challenge, though, and the young new Lilithian finds herself strangely attracted to his knightly valour. But there are disturbing forces working against them all. A calculating insider seeks to destroy what Ara protects, and unwittingly sets off a chain of events that will have eternally damning consequences. Among vampires and harping old politicians, Ara never imagined a simple witch would be such a threat. The darker side of romance rears its devilishly handsome head in this gripping book, playfully capering around a happy ending while bearing the fangs of uncertainty in each gut-wrenching turn of events.

About the author

After 17 wonderful years with these stories, I’ve made the heartbreaking decision to unpublish all of my books.

This has been a long time coming. In the past few years, my father passed away, my son was diagnosed with a chronic condition, and I’ve been struggling with major health issues of my own. These challenges have taken a heavy toll, and I no longer have the energy or capacity to continue writing and publishing.

To every reader who has supported the series, left kind reviews, and joined me on this journey... thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your love for these characters and this world has meant more to me than I can ever properly express. I’m so deeply grateful for every single one of you.
I may find my way back to writing one day, but right now it feels very unlikely. For the foreseeable future, I need to step away and focus on my family and my health.

Thank you again for all the joy and support you’ve given me over the years. It has truly been an honour.

With love and gratitude,
Angie

I enjoyed this different direction the series has taken compared to the beginning. Despite all the death and heartbreak—which honestly had me repeatedly thinking, "No freaking way!"—the story feels like it is progressing smoothly and tying together many long-running threads. At the same time, I constantly feel as though another major twist is waiting around the corner, especially after this ending. I also appreciate that these installments are somewhat shorter, making them easier to move through quickly. The new characters are excellent, the dynamics between them are engaging, and the plot twists—particularly the revelations near the end—continue to be some of the strongest parts of the series.

😵😵

What the what? I just... I don’t... I guess I don’t know what to think. This took a different direction than I both wanted or hoped. I both intrigued and disappointed. Ara’s a little slutty too.
