Great Addition to the series But Left Too Many Open Wounds Liked it, had some issuesDaemon,the hotter than hot sizzling sexy alien is blazing a trail to get to Kat. He blusters how he would burn the world to get her back but when he moves into position to get her back he kind of gets himself in the pickle jar. Yep, he's pickled, pricked, pestered, and prodded by the government goon squad. Hey he's with her so that was worth it to him. For me, not so much. I was thinking about much information he was handing over to these killers. I know he loves her, but what about his family, his people ? His devotion was precious but the potential cost made it crazy for me. The love between the two was sweet. I wish they would have moved beyond the simple touches and giggles more but this is YA. It does ramp up a bit towards the end with a 'Swoon Worthy' in the last 20 %. Still I thought it was too tame. The story left many things hanging. "It" hits the fan big time and nothing will ever be the same or maybe not even sane again. Discoveries made in the lab are just kind of faded away. I know they are coming back, but I'm chewing my nails wanting to know what happened. Friends die, family dies, overs unite, stuff blows up and the world changes. There you go. Now I wait for the next installment in the series.
