I still don't have an answer to who killed Gareth. But I have to say, this second book is definitely better than the first one. I found the humour from Little Leonidas pretty entertaining. It's hilarious how he can't do anything on his own and relies on his Mindys all the time.
However, there's one character I'm really not a fan of Gabriel. He's always being an ass and constantly going on about his visions. Seriously, dude, give it a rest! It's super annoying.
Overall, I haven't seen much progress in the storyline yet. The main takeaway from both books so far seems to be sexual tension and s*x. I get that it's a theme, but the male main characters always have their minds in the gutter, and it's a bit too much sometimes.
But hey, I'm still hooked and curious to see where this goes. On to the next one!

Is this book even steamier than the first? YES.
I love Peckham & Valenti's vivid imagination and worldbuilding, as well as their uncanny sense of humor. It's so refreshing when a fantasy book can have me laughing out loud by myself reading. I also love that I'm learning a lil' Italian thanks to Dante. Usually with RH is that there's always one guy I'm not very wild about, but honestly, I love all four of these guys - I don't blame Elise for not being able to choose. Well, that and I guess one of them did very likely kill her brother. Guess I better go get book 3 to figure out who!
