I enjoyed this second installment in the series, though not as much as book 1. It took me a while to figure out why: I enjoyed the plot, and Dame Grace was an interesting (if often clueless) MC to follow. The side characters were great. Took me a while to realize it's because I didn't like Avia as much as a love interest. (Unlike Tristan in book 1, whom I loved.) The hard-boiled reporter trope has never been my cup of tea, especially as a love interest, so this is very much a me-thing. Still an enjoyable read—especially since Avia loosens up part-way through, and I got to know her as a person instead of just as a reporter.
