MUCH better than the first. Smoother flow, more "romance", better character development. Vlad & Leila burn up these pages faster than a moth to a flame!
Fast pace and so good. Ends in a cliffhanger so I need to pick up the next book, immediately!!!

Leila and Vlad’s relationship is far from perfect. In fact, the book starts out with quite a row and Leila walking away - with Maximus on her heals for protection. She returns to the carnival circuit to find her old friend and partner, Marty. But what she thought was a return to her old life, is no such thing. Marty appears to have moved on with a new partner, and she flounders trying to figure out what to do next.
Unfortunately, that seems to be Leila running for her life with Maximus at her side. This makes things a little uncomfortable since he has a crush on Leila, and she never seems sure of what his motives really are. How much would he be willing to say and do just to turn her away from the idea of returning to Vlad?
In the long run, Vlad and Leila find themselves up against a new enemy and will need to rely on each other to get things taken care of. But if Vlad wants to get Leila back, he’s going to have to make some major changes, both emotionally and in the location of his bathroom.
This book did hit a little bit of the book 2 hump that seems to plague so many second-in-series. It felt a lot more like a transition between book one and book three than a complete story unto itself. The cliffhanger ending really added to that impression as well. Getting ready for book 3 was an exciting trip though, and it looks like there’s only more excitement to come.

It pains me to give Jeaniene 2 stars, but I have no choice. It was well written, as always, but it lacked content and was a little to cheese for my taste. Aside from all the girly romance there is not much left. I am sorry, but I KNOW she is better than that.
The evolution of Leila and Vlad’s relationship takes more of a turn in this book.
I love how Leila is herself even in the face of this strong-willed vampire.
The suspense and action in this book will keep you on your toes and will make you not want to stop listening.
I think seeing who is your enemy and who is your true friend after so many years can be daunting and I wonder how Vlad isn’t more messed up.
There was some angst in this book usually I am not a fan but it works.
Again loved the narration!
