This second instalment of the series is better than the first. The original twist develops more, the mystery is slowly being uncovered and there is greater character development. In fact the new characters are great and the sense of evil spreads.
This is an enjoyable read with enough fantasy, magic and mystery for me not to mind the romance. I am not a big fan of budding romance but many enjoy this in novels.
I am glad I bought the second in the series and now I will get book three to find out what happens.
Gabriel, Embry and Lucy have been on the run from Donavan. They escaped to Embry's villa to give Lucy a chance to practice and learn to control her magic. Charlie is a good friend of Ember and Gabriel and his grandson Eric is home from college. Eric likes Lucy but also realized that she will never be his. Gabe and Embry have it out finally and the air is cleared.
Wonderfully easy book to read. Action packed, the story line constantly moving from the first to the last page. It’s within this book that we start finding out a lot more about the main character and what makes her so unique. The main character deals with some complicated internal emotions based on decisions that she and others made together and the consequences that happened.
This series is great!! I got the first book for free and thought it was good enough to buy the 2nd. Needless to say, I'm buying the 3rd. I love the story, the characters are very relatable. I do hope that Gabriel finally gets his happily ever after.
Lucy, Embry, and Gabriel stay in a safe enough place while they know Donovan won’t go after them. There’s less than enough time for Lucy to study the books given her, socialize, and train before the major fight occurs.
