RC provided by Fire Flower Publishing, LLC for a fair and honest reviewThis is book number 2 of the Reveler Series, Maisie, younger sister of Jordan and Steve Coll, who is Malcolm boss and mentor.  Steve is a full time recruiter for Chimera, a group that monitors and polices the Dreamwaters against people that would use it for corrupt, illegal and dangerous means.  As a recruiter they are also always on the lookout for new people that have the ability to become part of their organization.  Those people they try to recruit before the bad guys get their hooks into them.In book 1, Maisie is caught red handed just before she makes a delivery.  She sees too much of a dreamscape that is so scary that even she doesn’t want to ever venture back into it.  These areas are call the Dark and few can walk the Dark Areas safely – those few that are talented enough services are a very hot commodity that are either snapped up by the highest bidder or recruited by Chimera.Now, I had a real problem with Maisie thru the entire first book and really my opinion of her didn’t change much thru the second book.  She acted like a spoiled brat, who only had her own self-interest at heart.  What really bothered me is that she was making money hand over fist doing these illegal deliveries and keeping the money. Her sister, Jordan, had been working her butt to make money for all those years, since their parents had died, just to make ends meet and make sure that Maisie wasn’t thrown into foster care.  To me that was really selfish.  Toward the end of the book, Maisie did start to redeem herself, but still – taking advantage of her sister like that….it really ticked me off.Now Steve Coll, he turns out to be quite a surprise.  He seems like your average guy, not a lot of surprises out of him.  But don’t let those Clark Kent glasses fool you.  (he doesn’t wear glasses – I’m just kidding about that).  The sexual chemistry between them ramps up pretty quickly, which I thought was a little odd, but you know, whatever.  They end up traveling to Vegas, land in the lap of luxury – so I guess, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas (I can say that since I live here, hehe)This was a pretty quick read, very enjoyable, flowed very well and the subject matter was something new and interesting that kept my attention and made me want to keep reading to see what would happen next.  I know there is a third book out and will be reading it as soon as I get a chance.
