Spoiler free review!
So yes, that ending has me in a choke hold that I'm not sure I'll be free from until the next book is released. However, before that I felt like this book was meh, especially compared to how intense the first in the series was. Things were constantly happening and developing but nothing really grabbed or shook me enough to really get me excited about what was happening. I love how much more of Ruhn we got in this book as I think he's a really interesting character. There was a few too many sex scenes for me but I know many others reading this will enjoy it so I'm not going to criticise that too much.
Overall, I don't know if I liked this book, it probably would have been a 2.5 but that ending convinced me to bump it up a bit just cause of how much it has dominated my thoughts since I finished reading, even if I'm not actually sure I like it. Can't wait for the next one!
