Again this book is written from Leila’s point of view and there is some sexual content in the book however all of that was in context with the actual story.
This book starts where the other left off so nothing is missing, the author does make a point of letting those that haven’t read book 1 know who the characters are and what they do so a nice little recap for those that have waited a while to continue the series.
We start this book with Leila still not being able to use her powers, but she is also untouchable by fire. The problem with this is that in her mind she is not useful to Vlad anymore and when a dinner party turns wrong she breaks up with him and leaves.
Escorted by Maximus she goes home to discover that another girl has got her gig. Determined that she can make it out on her own she hangs around for a bit hoping to sell off some of her things and then tragedy strikes at the carnival with a huge gas explosion. Thinking her best friend Marty has been killed outright she is distraught and heads off to the next safe place with Maximus.
But Maximus has a little plan of his own, he tells Leila that it may have been Vlad that caused the explosion as she left him. This was all a way for Maximus to get closer to Leila, which he wanted to do from day one but Leila was not interested in him, only Vlad.
Meanwhile Leila is having dreams of Vlad, although she doesn’t know it yet her powers are coming back.
While Maximus is trying his best to keep Leila safe in a hotel room, guns start shooting and Leila and Maximus is captured.
It seems someone else is not happy with the Leila/Vlad situation and wants to rectify that situation.
I am not going to spoil it for you though so if you want to know what else happens you should definitely read this.
A lot of changes happen in this book and trust me you will love it especially of you like vampire reads!
Again I was hooked from the start and I lost myself in the book completely.
Another fantastic book from the lovely Jeaniene Frost.
