I was given this book and the first in the series as a R2R and you can read my review for the first book here - [...] I give this book a 4 1/2 stars - almost perfect!I must admit I was a little annoyed at the beginning to see Anna still wavering between brothers but I decided to set aside my irritation and continue on with the book with an open mind. I tell yeah it actually took some convincing to push my brain into continuing with this book and not hopping to another - I sometimes read more than one book at a time. Anyways, I promised the author (and myself) an honest review so I decided to "Nut up" and keep going. hehe And of course I am glad I did and you will be too. Promise - and I don't use that word often.I enjoyed this book more than the first book mostly because the author was able to really settle into her characters and her story in this book. In the first book, due to the setup and style of writing she was using, a lot of questions concerning her characters, their behavior and their futures were left open to interpretation. In her second book in this series the author has provides us some what should be answers to these questions and has allowed her characters to become who they were meant to be.Anna finally and completely comes into her Queen self in this book and settles the questions of who she belongs to, who her family truly is and where her loyalties lie. As she truly embraces her inner Queen we see her strength, her humor, her loyatly and her faults. She becomes a true Heroine and this book is as much about her learning to accept herself as it is keeping the "normal" world safe from and unaware of the supernatural world that exists along side it.The author also promises a third book in the series this fall and I really hope that I will be given the opportunity to read and review that book as well. I truly enjoy the time I spend with Anna, even if she does drive me nuts sometimes. But isn't that what friends do?
