This book was better than the first . I tolerate Creighton more than Killian.

The shooting drama and the kidnapping to the island, was very chaotic. Made me question everything.

I have mixed feelings on this book. On one hand I loved Creighton and Annika, they're amazing. But I also really di n't like Creighton a good portion of the time as well. 

I love that they ended up together though. I think they're good for each other. They bring out parts of each other that wouldn't otherwise have been brought out of they didn't have each other. 

I really enjoyed this book overall. I just thought it was a bit slow and it didn't keep my attention hooked the entire way through. Out of the two books I've read so far from this series, this one isn't my favorite. I preferred the first book. But I would still recommend this book as well.

I liked this one. I loved seeing the side characters. There were some points in the story where I didn't think they could possibly come back from what had happened, the angst is strong in this one.
