Into the Fire by Jeaniene Frost
4.0
I have to admit, I'm kinda glad the main arc with Vlad and Leila is done with this book. There really hasn't been much of an arc with these characters. Vlad's still the ridiculously jealous and overprotective guy he always was and if anything associating with him has made Leila more vicious instead of her softening his edges. Their issues are still the same, she wants to help Vlad wants to wrap her in bubble wrap. Vlad's on the edge of exploding in rage and Leila steps in and somehow pulls him off of the precipice. I find I'm more curious about Mircea at this point, especially with the way this book ended.
There's a lot of action in this one. They're on the hunt from page one. We see a bunch of Ian and Mencheres in this one as Vlad and Leila need help in tracking down Mircea before the curse that binds him and Leila together can be used to kill her. I'm also curious about Leila's many times great grandmother as I feel like we've only gotten a taste of who and what she is. Her background is interesting and I don't feel like we really learned much at all about Leila's ancestry and what that means to have been a true descendant of the Cherokee people that she comes from.
For all that this was the expected last book in this arc, there felt like there was a lot of sort of loose ends remaining. I am looking forward to Ian's story though. He's always been entertaining and now he's gotten himself in quite a bind.
