Review: Stellar sequel!
Rating: 4 out of 5

While this book didn't quite compare, it was still a stellar sequel. It started off a little slow, I think mostly because the story was now split between both Ellie's and Camden's POV. I would just get into one half of the story, then be dragged away to the other half. I loved hearing Camden's inner voice, and especially enjoyed following his story, but the whole while, I was dying for their characters to reunite! I missed their chemistry!Speaking of chemistry, we are now reintroduced to Javier. If you haven't already read it, be sure to read On Every Street before starting this book. I wouldn't have otherwise understood the past between Javier and Ellie, and seen the draw that already exists between them. It left me feeling uncomfortable. Sign of a good book? You bet! Be prepared to be emotionally conflicted!Ellie has, right from the beginning, been a character who walks a fine line. I'm never sure which side of that line she's going to fall on. Every time I feel her growing into something more, she gets pulled back into the shadows and shades of gray. There is still so much distance for her to cover before she can redeem herself. Camden has also been dipping deeper into the darkness, and I'm curious to see how far down he will fall, and if he will be able to pull himself out once again.I am desperately looking forward to the conclusion!A copy of this book was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
