When the gate was opened and the curse lifted, everyone thought that life would be back to normal, but it’s too early to celebrate yet. Vienna decided not to wait for Rownan and set out to find a different entrance to Earth. Yara and Treygan won’t allow Rownan to travel through Harte alone. The three of them set out on a dangerous journey. Traveling through Harte won’t be easy, and no one returns from Hell the same.
I felt like this book was much better than the first. The plot was far more entertaining and the flow was much nicer. Unlike Tangled Tides, the story was harder to predict and the manner of Harte was random and, in ways, terrifying. I found Harte to be a much more interesting place than anything we have seen so far.

I spotted better development with the characters but also, all of the mannerisms that annoyed me with the first book were toned down a bunch. The focus was also on Yara far less, which I enjoyed. It was nice to see the other characters get more attention. My favorites still weren’t seen much, but it was better than nothing. I was still not a fan of the characters.

This book certainly improves the series, but it’s hard to like a story when you can’t like the characters. So while I look forward to the next installment to see where the story goes, I’m not looking forward to dealing with Yara and Treygan again. If they were better characters and their romance more believable, I would be more fond of this series.
