I read this in an evening. I was that into it.

Poor Alice! I think 75% of the book it seemed like everyone was trying to get rid of her. After being the greatest thing ever that would feel horrible. I'm on pins and needles waiting to see who she ends up with and how the other one gets out of the picture. I wonder if Jack ends up finding the one made for him and she ends up with Peter.

I'm pleasantly surprised as Book 2 is much improved over Book 1. As I see occur a good bit, the author finally gets their stride and their writing grows up with the story.
Fate sees Alice struggle with the events that occur and put a wrench in her plans. She also has to deal with her feelings for both Jack and Peter. Some things happen which I can't say, because spoilers. These things lead to a dangerous mission to bring Peter home and leaves many people stressed, jealous, and trying to deal with all the rule set upon them because of their lifestyle.
I really, really like the "leading man" in this series. He's just so normal. He's of course ridiculously handsome, but he just behaves like a regular guy with regular emotions. He's not overly romantic (maybe a bit more than normal guys, but not typical paranormal romance level) and he's just really great.
I'm also not one to dislike insta-love (I'm here for the fantasy people) however, I like the slow burn of this one. It's nice that it's progressing fairly normally and the forced distance is always good for brewing a love story. Of course, I'm also really happy with the heroine of the story actually picking the right guy, for now. I'm not totally convinced she won't switch allegiance, but for now she's at least on the right path and I'm not actively screaming at my book wishing she wasn't so stupid.
The characters are starting to come into their own in the series and I'm starting to really enjoy it. I'm glad I stuck with it because I've been happy with the story and I can't wait to read the rest!

The story continues and takes some crazy twists. Almost immediately I was shocked by the twist that was early on and I loved the book more because of it. I was a little sad at first but things worked out wonderfully for Alice. I have even decided to not hate Peter. My heart broke for the guy at the end of this book. I can't wait to start the next one that's out and then I will have to wait until August for the next.
There were still a fw grammatical errors more so than I find in other books. So I wish her editor or whoever would be more thorough. Still the story was great and worth the read.

I liked this one much better than the first. The characters and their relationships were developed more and a definite plot was established (which I didn't really find in the first book). Milo was a big part of this installment, which was awesome! Very curious where Ms. Hocking is going with respect to Alice, Jack, and Peter. I am hoping its not just a love triangle. Already downloaded book 3.
