Review: Better than book #1!!!!!!
Rating: 5 out of 5

I wasn't that enthusiastic to start this book, not because I didn't absolutely love book #1 but because I've been incredibly disappointed by most of the sequels I've read recently and expected the same from this.  I'm so happy to report that I think this book was BETTER than book #1!!!I was 100% "Team Thomas" in book #1 and so upset with Emily for her final decision at the end of the book.  By about 1/3 of the way through this book I was completely "Team Gabriel" but by the end of the book I was torn.  I want her to choose both of them!As with "The Hidden" this book was written in alternating POV's of Emily and Gabriel with a few by Thomas thrown in at the end.  Gabriel's story is told and he becomes a much more likeable and sympathetic character fairly quickly.  A lot more is explained about the Feeders and Healers as well as what Emily is.  Like book #1, the chemistry between Emily and Gabriel is amazingly hot and their bedroom scenes are off-the-charts sizzling!There was a lot more suspense in this book than in the first.  By about 90% I had to stop reading and give myself a break because it was making my stomach hurt!  I would read a few pages, stop for awhile, then read some more.  I honestly thought I wouldn't be able to take it and would have to quit before finishing the book!Of course this book ended on a huge cliffhanger and I don't see any mention of book #3 on Amazon.  I don't think I can take waiting to find out what happens to Emily, Thomas and Gabriel!!!
