I greatly enjoyed watching Daniel come into his own. For a 300 year old vampire, he wasn't very sure in himself, in spite of how he looked on the outside, and after the fight a few months ago, he was even more unsure of himself.
Ryu had been in love with Daniel for so long, he had long given up hope of that love one day being returned, but suddenly Daniel is looking at him differently, in the way Ryu had always wanted to see.
I also enjoyed having the story with Isaac and Troy reach it's end, although did it really? I have a feeling we will be seeing more of Troy, hopefully with the newly introduced Niven. There seemed a bit of sequel bait there.
My only niggle is one I have with a lot of SJ Frost's work- the guys seemed a bit overly sappy in their love, the things they say to each other. I tried to tell myself it was their age, but I just don't know if anyone, male or female, really talks that way, no matter their age.

3.5 stars - I really enjoyed the second instalment of the Instincts series. The first book was fabulous, so I was very pleased to see that Daniel and Ryu got their own story! I absolutely adored Daniel; he came across as a bit of a dick in the first book, but once we got to know a bit more about him, it became clear that he really was a lovely guy with a traumatic past, and that he really was rather vulnerable (emotionally, at least). I really just wanted to give him a big hug. His relationship with Ryu was beautiful. Learning of Ryu's past was an emotional roller-coaster too that really made you pray that he got his happy ending, so it was wonderful to read about these two finding love and forever with each other.

3.5 stars. The story was good, but the editing was poor. I don't remember her prior books having as many errors slip through.

S.J Frost's characters always manage to speak to me. There's something about them that I simply love and this book is no different.
I enjoyed Daniel and Ryu in the first book. Thought they were interesting guys and I was really glad they had a book of their own. And it sure didn't disappoint! Strong characters, hot smexing and an interesting bit of action going on as well...what more do you want?
