Review: Another Mysterious Installment
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is the second installment in the Master of the Opera six part Series of Novellas.Christy's past is still unknown for readers; but, she still remains a highly likable, if not a little immature, heroine. The Master still remains an enigma to her and the emotions she has towards him, confound her on so many levels. Of course, the thought that he could be the murderer have entered her mind; but, she never truly believes that. Despite him being cloaked in secrecy, she trusts him. Then there is Ramon, he seriously creeps me out. I don't care how rich or hot you are, if you order me around like I'm a possession, I will kick you. Their relationship......is odd for lack of a better word. It progresses some in this installment; but, I really hope it doesn't go anywhere just for the fact that he views her more as a possession, a business deal of sorts.Now onto the "who done it" portion. There are so many suspects at this point in the story that it's a little astounding. There Carla and Charlie whom would be the most likely since they have access to the Opera House 24/7 and it seems that Carla has it in for Christy. You definitely get the feel that Charlie knows more than he's letting on to Christy and us (the readers). Roman makes me think of the mob; he's smooth and way too charismatic. A little too.....perfect shall I say? Just the way he acts towards Christy makes me think he could very well get rid of someone, if it benefited himself. Then there is the Phantom "Master", he is absolutely one of my favorite characters in these books so far. While we, the readers, know next to nothing about him, that is what keeps us intrigued. Even though he could very well make anyone disappear in the catacombs to protect his precious "Christine", I doubt that it's him. You don't get the feel of, serial killer off of him at any point. Could he make someone disappear to protect Christy? Yes. Would he possibly kill someone to protect Christy? Yes. I think anyone would do almost anything in their power to protect those closest to them. I mean, I really hope it's not him; but, at this point, we really have absolutely no idea.While the first installment had absolutely no sexuality at all, this one definitely has an undercurrent of eroticism that will keep you on edge, waiting to see what happens. Master is where every sexual thought is centered, he's mysterious and knows precisely what he wants. The tension between the two is palpable throughout the story that will have readers wondering, "What will happen next?"Kennedy delivers another wonderful installment, it builds excess tension and sexuality that will have you wanting to read on. The Master is the unknown in this series and I can't wait to find out what Kennedy has in store for us as this story progresses. At this point, I am completely hooked and can't wait to read more.
