I am really enjoying this series and true rating would be 4.5 stars.

This series puts a spin on the immortal story by creating the world of the Revenants. This book picks up shortly after the first one ended and continues to revolve around Vincent and Kate. The Numa are still around but have been quiet so it focuses more on the fact that now that they have decided they want to be together, how will it happen. They are trying to find something that will help Vincent fight the urge to die saving someone. Vincent is still the strong, protective guy but Kate won't let him sacrifice everything without her also making an effort to find a solution.

I really like both main characters and even all of the supporting characters make the story more interesting.

There are some underlying things going on in the book that I really want to understand better - namely Jules' interactions with Kate. I feel like there is something going on there. Also, I would love a POV from Vincent on his situation. We see the changes to him and impact of what is going on through Kate's eyes which is great but it would be an interesting view point.

One thing I would state here is that if you don't appreciate cliffhangers, hold out until the next book comes out as this one ends with a pretty good one. I myself will wait (impatiently) for the next installment but recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good story that includes romance, mystery and some action.

This book was tough for me to finish. About a quarter of the way through I just found myself not liking a number of things but wanted to complete it. I thought the plot line was interesting and when I read the initial blurb I was very interested. Overall I felt there was a lot of potential with this story line but I couldn't get past some of the issues noted below.

The characters just didn't grab me. Neither Addie or Cael really grabbed me and had me interested in them and the things they were doing. I found the interactions between the two somewhat uninteresting and the dialogue between the two felt off. All of the secondary characters were even less engaging...I don't know that there was one character that really stood out as a favorite and normally that isn't the case for me.

I typically don't mind switching point of views but I was confused as to why there needed to be a POV from Darcy...it didn't fit and I didn't see the purpose.

Lastly, after knowing each other for the span of (at most) 2 weeks why do they have to get married? I am a sucker for the HEA but it just seemed so forced.

This was a quick read and overall I thought this was an interesting story.

I think that the length of the story made it tough to really get invested in the characters. That isn't to say I didn't care for them, I think I just wanted more. The relationship between Jaime and Sophie was nice but I felt like other than the fact that she liked how he smelled and the fact that there was an electricity when they touched, there wasn't much else as a draw. We did get little glimpses into their character (Jaime talking about his friend or a bit about his family) but not enough.

I did get a sense of how separate the Matthews family was and felt from humans. It came across very clear. I was curious to learn more about their background as it is clear their lineage plays a big part in any continuation of this story line.

The way the book ended did capture my interest and would push me to rate this a 2.5 as I am interested to see how Sophie adjusts to her new role and also what was in the letter.
