I never know what to expect with book 2 in a series or duology, but this did not disappoint.   Every part felt vital to the story, the characters didn't suddenly morph into somebody different, and the dark subject matter was once again handled beautifully. 

And honestly, can Mrs. K be the MVP of this story?  She is such a wonderful character and I love the humor she provides. 

Reading the conclusion of these two was so satisfying.  The highs and lows we all so well written.

And Johnny is seriously now one of my favorite MMCs ever.

Such a great conclusion, fantastic writing, a plot that never gets dull, and I do so love a HEA.

This book could be so much shorter. There are so many repeats in words/scenes, but nope 800 pages. Also I think the writers has a kink where you get caught mid act.
