Wow! This is a sequel that really delivers. It's a superbly-written follow-up to a fantastic first book in the series, throwing new conflict at our favourite characters and taking us to deeper depths of emotion, frustration and mystery. Hargrave has incredible skill in giving us close-up character-driven emotion, genuine external stakes that keep us gripped, AND extremely well-written erotica that adds even more depth to the story. The characters are so real it hurts - especially when they're doing things that frustrate us! - and the wider story of battling against the oppressive purity regime feels incredibly important, never falling too far into the background. I am addicted and can't wait for the next book!
