This book continues where Move the Sun left off. Lilli finds that things she'd never considered are now available to her, she's spent so much time alone with no real place to call home that she's understandably struggling to come to terms with her new life. Isaac while over the moon he has Lilli in his life is struggling to keep his town alive and at times he doubts he's the right man for the job. The love between Lilli and Isaac is so strong that it can conquer most things but can it save them and the town. Lawrence Ellis is breathing down their necks determined to get Signal Bend, he has power and wealth behind him and is prepared to do whatever is necessary to get what he wants. This is another exciting gritty book and like the first it has violence and sex in large quantities, Susan Fanetti has done what a lot of female authors fail to do and that's to write a strong female character, Lilli remains strong throughout both books and what she endures is amazing. This book again is filled with great real characters with faults and all, yet another strength of this book and reading becomes addictive, Show is one of my favourites and I'm assuming the next book is his, either way I can't wait.Since I liked this book so much why 4 stars and not 5 like I gave the first book, in the first book someone got the jump on Lilli, ok I thought could happen so I let that slide but there was a situation in this book, which is difficult to explain without giving anything away but Lilli and everyone in the town is on high alert, everyone is vigilant and yet instead of having her gun on her, maybe shoved in the back of her jeans covered by a jacket it's well I can't say anymore but you'll know when you read it. Now maybe I'm being too picky but I'd expect more from a normal citizen under these circumstances let alone someone with years of military training, it just spoilt it a bit for me and seemed silly under the circumstances but maybe it's just me.Apart from that it's a fantastic book and I can't wait for the next one.
