So I pretty much lost it at the end. Just a warning for you - when you get the end of this book, you will be pissed that the fifth one isn't done yet. I have the author's assurances from her facebook fan page that it is in progress.I love the Kanes and the Morning Stars, and am so glad that ALL the characters participate in ALL the books. I like to read a series that continues the characters, and doesn't just love 'em and dump 'em once "their" book is over. This one focuses on Buck, and the mysterious Delilah, the young woman that Kid rescues and sends back to the ranch back in book #2. Jason Kane, who was fairly absent during books one and two, plays a big role in this book, also. Buck feels like he is competing with Jason for Delilah's attention, which prompts some fun conflicts between the two. (I dislike Jason, believe it or not, so I enjoyed it when Buck clocked him in the face.)Despite Delilah's terrifying ability, she and Buck manage to grow close and end up together. Enter me losing my mind with the appearance of Wyatt. If you've read this far into the series, you know that Wyatt does NOT leave the Morning Star home without a damned good reason. I don't think I breathed for several pages.Also, this book broke my heart for Kid. I have loved him since the first book. His anguish, his torment, and his desire to only want to help every person around him while he suffers in silence. Part of the reason I lost it at the end is because of what happens with Kid when he finally snaps. I can NOT wait for Raising Kane to come out to read Kid's story. The poor thing deserves to be happy and learn to control his ability.If you've made it to this book and haven't done so already, join Heather's facebook group called Fevered Fanatics for those of us obsessed with this series. :)
