I was provided an ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Catori’s adventures with the faeries and hunters continue. People are still dying, shit is still going down. (Yep, that’s my summary.)
The world was still interesting and well built, we actually got more details about it, but the plot was so very boring. I started being entertained at like 70%, that’s when the story actually picked up…
I have really mixed feelings about most of the main characters… Like I can’t decide whether I like them or not…
All in all, the ending made up for the rest of the story but only partly; for most of the book, I simply didn’t care. About any of it.

I received a free audiobook from the author and the review group Audiobx in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
I HAVE A NEW SHIP.
Catori is torn between her Hunter side and her Faerie side. In the centuries long conflict between the two, she hasn't decided if one side is right, or even if either side is. After losing her mother and best friend, Catori is sick of death. When someone she thought was a friend, steals her book from her, she doesn't know where to turn to or who to trust. But it seems like her heart has.
I enjoyed the first book, but this was a step above it! I felt more invested in the Hunter vs Fae conflict, plus we find out a lot more about the universe of Fae in this. I loved getting to know more about Cat's family ties to both sides of this conflict, and more about the Fae land in general. Plus, I have found that Ace Wood might not be the pompous asshole I thought he was at first.
This book certainly ended on a twist and I can't wait to find out more.

How long until the next one comes out?
This was a great sequel... while the first half was slow and I worried it might have a bit of the middle book syndrome I got sucked into Catori's story more...
I will be back with a more detailed review...
*** Thank you to the author for an early copy for review - all opinions are my own.... and please considering checking out my full review and discussion on Marissa Writes ***
Story Overview
This second book of the Lost Clan series starts right where Rose Petal Graves left off... and at full speed. So please consider reading these in order. Granted Olivia Wildenstein does a great job of filling in the major details, as well as providing extras to help with the different languages and a large list of characters that are part of the story.
Catori Price is focused first on keeping her father safe now that faeries and hunters are becoming more and more of a daily nuisance for her. She cannot decide which half of her blood line she will pick. As a result, both groups are showing up and trying to convince her to act for them.
Kajika is struggling to find his way in this familiar yet different world and the memories that Blake left with him only make the process more complicated. As he tries to find his way, he often clashes with Catori over how to proceed, and that only complicates her opinions on which blood line to follow.
Ace & Cruz show up again and again with only minor bits of information to assist Catori - leaving her more and more confused about how the fae world even works.
More than anything, Catori knows that a war is beginning and if she doesn't pick a side there is no guarantee her friends and family will survive it.
