Lana’s second novel is definitely not as strong as The Nanny. This one offered up some great spicy scenes like her first book but otherwise it fell flat for me. I didn’t feel like Mackenzie and Noah’s connection and bond was much beyond their hormones. I needed to see their emotional connection more fleshed out. The shifter aspect of the book didn’t seem to add much to the story and relationship. I felt like this book couldn’t decide if it wanted to be paranormal or not. Also, the background information wasn’t laid out early enough in the story. I still enjoyed the book but this one was not as exciting as I had hoped.
