Absolutely loved book 2! Edin is, so far, my favorite monster. He’s so funny and lovable, but also hot as hell and so Dominant. The sex scenes are some of the best I’ve ever read, with the perfect mix of sweet moments and erotic descriptions. Hunter is also a very lovable guy, so loyal and brave. I loved getting to see his inner conflicts throughout the book. I also love the representation of Hunter being an amputee. I’m not an expert but it seems like the author did her research about prosthetics, and amputees in general. I really hope Hunter and Edin pop back up in other books because so far they’re my favorite couple!

I really enjoy the writing of this author and the world building of this series. 

It was fun seeing a hardass asshole have to deal with a laid back kind guy. I think the story did begin to drag a bit after the big climax because there was a lot of repetition of story beats. But overall the book was nice to get through and I looked forward to the next in the series.

gahhhh i didn't expect to like this as much as i did but it was so gooddd!! i honestly loved hunter a lot, i just clicked with him. i loved their relationship overall, and the quotes in this book HIT. especially the near-emotional ones with all the feels.

the way edin just wandered for YEARS to finally have someone to be with him 😭 "Truly?” he asked, his deep voice tinged with tentative hope. “You want to stay with me?".

URGH I LOVED HIM. THEM. individually. together. 
the nicknames? amazing. the storyline? couldn't tear my eyes away! wyndanny featured in it? AHHH. 
the amount of quotes i could've featured in this..

"I am glad I know you, Hunter. So glad."
"I'm glad I know you too,

scratch

."

What a journey! I loved the evolution of hunter. He’s such a fiercely loyal guy and while he was so mistrusting at the start he couldn’t help but fall for edin once he started getting the feels. You can tell he’s a seasoned soldier and the difference between how he and Danny were written was very clear which was interesting. There was parts were I thought my heart would burst from the adrenaline and the worry from the tense situations but so glad I hung in there. Such an amazing second book to this series
