Amazing - Start to finish!

Thorn has done it again and swallowed me whole in a daring feat of adventure, chaos, magic, and sexy time! I fell in love with these characters in the first book and the second doesn’t disappoint! Now, the only question I’m left with… when is the next one coming out?!

the problem of this book was that every other romantic story line was more interesting than the main one between silas&izabelle. theirs was very bland, i didn’t feel the chemistry and excitement.

before reading, i hoped this book would be about dante&leo. their story started in the first book. i wasn’t a fan of fillers from their povs in others’ books. silas&izabella could’ve waited a book longer.

i already missed athena&kon, their story was more stimulating.
“Kon looked at Athena with heat in his eyes. "You were going to curse me, güzelim?"
"I thought about it when you were being a jerk," she replied, taking out a knife to flick between her fingers.”

“I'm Athena Edgeworth. This is Kon, and if you don't start talking, I'm going to use this nifty little knife to start skinning pieces off you," she replied cheerily.
Kon grinned. "You are so very good at it, my love. I kind of hope he doesn't talk.”

“When I'm an old lady, I'm going to have a dagger cane," Athena piped up.
Kon kissed her temple. "Why wait until you're old?”


honestly i waited the whole book for this line.

“I suppose there's only one question left for me to ask," Athena said. Her eyes went wide and innocent. "Are you my Mommy now?”


it’s the second time in the series when they lost each other and didn’t notice when the person got snatched. some mercenaries they were.

Well I love Alessa Thorn. This was so exciting. The formula is a little predictable, but the ride is so very fun. The characters come alive with love and laughter and relationships that seem so real and evoke so much emotion.

I cannot wait for the next one.

Yes please! I didn't think that it could get better after book 1 but I was wrong! Absolutely delicious and 100% enjoyable.
The main characters in this one (Silas and Izzy) have my heart in a chokehold and I loved their development.

I love reading about these misfit mercenaries and their sexcapades

Now Kon has had his revenge, it's Athena's time to shine. Finding out more about her past and taking revenge.

Meanwhile blossoming love between our favourite murder daddy and silver hacker, with a side of military brute and mafia boy banter. What more could you want?

We also delve more into the magic Kon and Iz have discovered they have and the magic of this world.

Hello Edgeworths!

I’ll say that I adored my first encounter with the Edgeworth gang, however the second encounter, even better! Magic, cool destinations, a five year slow burn that ignites, sign me up. I already loved Athena and Kon and Iz but add a little Daddy Silas in and it’s golden. Just like last time Alessa had me turning pages so fast I was caught off guard when the story ended…now to recover from this book hangover and await the next edition of Vacationing with the Edgeworths!
