Make sure your kindle has a sturdy cover…
Because the cliffhanger here will have you throwing it against the wall!
I was worried that this second novel in the series was going to fall short of the first. I had nothing to worry about. La Veuve Noire and Jax Jones are back, continuing their quest to solve the mysteries that surround them. The past is murky and the tangled truth is not easy to decipher with block upon block placed in their path. They continue to fight their attraction for each other even as they band together to care for The Kid and keep him safe amidst the chaos created by their investigation. Veuve remains strong but her vulnerability rises to the surface as the nightmares she has never been able to shake return. Seeing her affection and protectiveness of the Kid reveals what is hiding behind her dominant personality. Jax again is the strong alpha not afraid to show his feelings as the answers he seek become tantalizingly within reach. Seeing his relationship with the Kid grow, and his feelings for Veuve intensify, made my heart just quiver.

The story moves forward as questions are answered and more are asked. This is a complex plot with equally complex characters brought together with a fresh voice that I could listen to forever. This anything but light-hearted read peels away the civilized façade of man to showcase the evil that exists. At the same time, we are heartened by the heroes that still live among us. Put it all together and you have a read that you will not want to put down! A stunning cliffhanger has me stalking the shelves for the next in the series! How could she leave it like this? How? Bring on book three stat!
