I was looking forward to this book hoping to find what was missing from the first book in this one. Sadly, I didn't. It reads more like a report from an aloof 3rd party perspective. The only character that really has any depth is Luc. Melena is so forgettable that I just had to go back and check for her name because I blanked on writing it. She is annoying. She has this tough she-man attitude because she was "in the army". Who cares? Who are you now?When I read books where the woman is always like, Don't call me sweetheart. I can do it all by myself, when in the end they have to ask for help, drives me nuts. If you want to act tough, be sure your actions follow through. You don't have to verbally put a man in place. So he calls you sweetheart. SHOW him by actions what you're capable of, not all that huff and puff. To have someone act tough, only to be the weakest link that everyone caters to because they are so fragile is eyerolling.What I see her as is an immature, cold, aloof, weak, poser, who is really a very forgettable nothing, that is supposed to have this great power to be the end all for all. Those kind of plots tick me off. Oh, and the wanting to solve all problems with a gun just to seem tough knowing damn well most of them can't be killed that way. Ugh. Be open minded. Learn to fight with the weapons that will ensure success. Duh.Anyway, I'm rambling because I'm just disappointed. There were a few scenes in here that were really great and the sex scenes were hot. The series has so much potential, but there really is no depth to the characters and how they relate to one another be it main or secondary characters. It just comes across cold, aloof, with a hot spot here and there to tease. It really sucks because I really wanted to like this series.
