I genuinely did not expect to love this so much but Elena and Raphael made me so soft in this?? I love them your honour.

The second book in the GUILD HUNTER series finds vampire hunter Elena Devereux continuing her relationship with Archangel Raphael while grappling with her new abilities as an angel.

Elena and Raphael stayed relatively the same, as did their relationships. There were new characters who were introduced, though I didn't feel that anyone really developed. While Elena did grapple with her past traumas and Raphael understood the consequences of what would come from loving a hunter, their bond didn't seem to have any tension.

There were some action scenes to break up the romance, though I never really felt like Elena and Raphael were in any true danger. The plot still moved at a good pace, with some spicy scenes that were very well written.

For the most part, the prose is solid, though there are a few moments when the characters seem to repeat themselves, whether through dialogue or internal thought, so some sections become far more predictable. There was also a reveal at the end that seemed a little rushed to me, and I'd have liked to see it drawn out for deeper storylines.

That said, this is a good popcorn read for anyone who is looking for a paranormal romance. Each adventure seems to be self-contained so anyone can pick the book up and dive into it.

It took me a while to get back into this world. The book is a little tamer than the first one, but its still a great read. The evolution of the characters is interesting, and it sets things up for the third one.

I’m officially addicted.
