Rating: 3 out of 5

I received this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review, via Lovers of Paranormal on GoodReads.I want to start by saying how much I was looking forward to this after reading 'Ghost Hand'.  However, I must admit it took me a long time to get into this sequel.  I think it was around chapter 5 when I finally connected to it.  Then I was gripped and couldn't put it down.  I was really interested in the new turn the story took.  There were new mysteries raised that left me dying to know what it all meant.However.  I felt like by the end of this book, not a single mystery from book 1 or 2 got answered.  I felt like there should have been something, at least, revealed in this book.  Not the whole thing, no, but something.  Instead, there were just new questions raised.  It got a bit complicated and, in my view, messy.Even so, my biggest issue was the last few chapters.  Out of nowhere, a certain character comes in and creates the staple love triangle of any paranormal romance series.  He's not someone we've ever actually seen before, and when we did hear about it in book 1, nothing big was made of it, yet he suddenly declares out of the blue that he's madly in love with our heroine and gets a bit ugly about it.  I added a note on my Kindle that just read, 'Random.'  I didn't understand the need for it.  Then it was forgotten about and the story moved on, and that character didn't feature in the rest of the book.  Why was he even there?I also found the flipping back and forth thing with Marcus a bit tiresome.  It seemed like every chapter there was a new lie he'd told.  If I were Olivia, I would have left him days ago.  I was struggling to understand what she loved about him...and just wondering when we were going to learn why the razor blades had power.So this wasn't perfect, for me.  But then, as I say, nothing seemed to get answered, and I still want to know what's going on.  So I'll be reading book 3.  Thank you to the author for sharing this with me.
