This was an excellent follow-up to the first book. I think that despite it covering less ground and having a bit less adventure, I actually liked this one more. I loved seeing the bond between Veronica and  Stoker. Despite their bickering and sexual tension, they make a great investigative team and have a lot of deep trust and respect for each other, which is lovely to see.

Thoroughly enjoyed this second installment of the series! 

I think I liked the plot of the first book more, but i liked that in this second book Veronica and Stoker began opening up to each other. We definitely get more crumbs of Stoker’s past and I ate them up. And I’m dying at the slow burn. I need them to keep flirting and kiss!!!!! 

This series is mysterious and funny and a little silly. It’s a joy to read Veronica and Stoker’s interactions together!
