The first book in this series (Specter) was one of my favorite reads from last year. So you can imagine how excited I was to get my hands on book two. I was even more excited when I realized it was an M/M romance featuring my favorite secondary character of book one...Ace. Throw in the fact that his love interest was going to be Sage's (heroine from Specter) brother; I knew I was in for another fantastic story.
So did it live up to my expectations? Hell ya, it did! I loved these two together. They made my heart all squishy. I also loved that this one had a little heat to it. Not erotica level smut, but a nice little dash of spice to tantalize us readers. Of course, the writing remains top notch. It was well paced. The plot was engaging. I maybe would have liked a bit more development in regards to the "mystery" storyline. Or at least a little more explanation on "why" the baddie was doing what he was doing, but that didn't really take away from my enjoyment of the story. I wouldn't say this one was very angsty. There wasn't any OW or OM drama. Neither were virgins. It was great to see so much of Wren and Sage again (the couple from book one), and I cannot WAIT to get my hands on Cruz's book. I am figuratively salivating for it! (lol) Last, it was all wrapped up in a super sweet happy for now ending.
Nothing much left to say. I LOVED it. I love this series. Bring on book three...
