Book 2 starts off a few months after the end of Ignite.  Kira and Luke have graduated high school and are now on their way to Sonnyville, where Kira is to be trained.  Kira doesn't know what to expect, but she's excited to be with other conduits, while upset that she'll be away from Tristan for two months (who will use that time to chase after Diana).  But nothing for Kira, since discovering who she really is, has been easy so we know her visit to Sonnyville won't be either.In Sonnyville, Kira finds herself in a position she hasn't been in before.  She's gaulked at by some conduits, while openly shunned by others (her own grandfather included).  Not to mention the open hostility Luke's sister has for her when she accuses Kira of leading him on.  It's a lot for a girl to take in, especially when what she really wants to focus on it discovering if her mother is truly still alive.Kira's powers also develop more, sometimes beyond her control.  With that, comes the need to learn more about who she is and if she is the thing that he grandfather fears or someone who could help mend the rift between the conduits.  I personally think those powers are going to hold a huge key to her life and that of her mother and Tristan's.I enjoyed this addition to the series.  The love triangle between Kira, Tristan and Luke grew, but I don't know if I would truly classify it as a triangle.  It's pretty clear from the beginning that Kira's love for Luke is very different than what she feels for Tristan.  But I think it's the differences in the way she loves them that makes it a triangle.  She deals with situations with each of them differently because of those feelings, and that may be her undoing as we get further along in the series.I loved the turn of events with Tristan's maker, so I will patiently wait for book 3 in the series.  But while I'm waiting, I recommend this series to anyone who enjoys a good YA vampire story with a twist.
