Overall rating: 3.5 stars

I absolutely loved Ms. Blayney's first two-story novel, Lover's Kiss/Traitor's Kiss. I had hoped this one would be even better and would have been happy if it had been just as good. Sadly, it was not quite as good. Not bad, mind you. Just not great.

At times, I found the dialogue difficult to follow. Some of that occurred when she relied on characters and plots from her previous stories. Unfortunately, I read them too long ago and no longer remembered the references. For that reason, I might have given this story higher marks if I had just finished the first and would recommend you review those storylines before reading this one to refresh your recall.

That being said, this was not a bad book and provided two days of reading enjoyment. My neutral-leaning-slightly-positive feelings about the book are reflected in my lukewarm rating.
