lectorliber04 's review for:
Bayou Moon
by Ilona Andrews
The first book in the series was very good, this one was amazing! I found the story darker. Maybe because this part of The Edge is a swamp and the villain, Spider, didn't hold back, he was mean as mean can be. The main couple are attracted to each other as soon as they meet, however, unlike in the first book when 'I love yous' where exchanged so fast I had no idea what had happened, here all those feelings took a back seat as Spider wreck havoc.
There's absolutely everything in this book, lots of action, betrayals, hurt, sorrow, a bit of humour, love of family, revenge and more action. There wasn't a moment's peace for Cerise and William until almost the very end. The thing about Ilona Andrew's alpha heroes is that they don't baby their very strong-willed love interests. They try but learn very quickly 'their women' are their own person. At the same time these heroes have moments of such tenderness you go 'Oh, oh, that was so sweet!' Cerise is grieving, she admits to William she needs her mum. He doesn't make false promises, doesn't humour her, he just stays with her, saying few words validating her feelings and encouraging her to keep on going. I loved how their last row was resolved, neither giving in but meeting half way. And now I want Lark to have her own story because the kid needs to purge some of her demons and get her happy ending.
