Okay, so full disclosure, I didn't really like Lux in the first book, and I wasn't looking forward to reading her story.  That being said, the girl did grow on me.  She was still immature, but I could understand her motivations a bit better after this book.  She also showed a quiet strength that we didn't get to see in the first book of the series.  On the other hand, I absolutely loved Slate.  He's the grumpy (hot) bad-boy with a chip on his shoulder, who's been dealt a pretty tough hand in life.  I felt super bad for him getting caught in Lux's revenge crosshairs, but he stood his own.  I loved how dedicated he was to his sister and how willing he was to do anything for her.  I did enjoy seeing Lux and Slate growing together.  I think they both rubbed off on one another and brought out the best in one another.  Their chemistry was absolutely electric.  The story was intriguing, but a bit difficult to mention without any spoilers.  I will say that I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in Book 3.
