As the second book of the Sensor Series, we pick up right where we left off with Mel's story. Life in Fairbanks has started to settle for our heroine, although her independent nature continues to push her to test the boundaries that the supernatural have placed on her. Needless to say, she hates being forced to do anything, but grudgingly has settled into her new life.Loved the opening interaction at the herb shop and the local sups. Watching the growing bonds with her adopted teenage daughter Emily, Felisha, and the rest of our previous cast members was a great way to keep building them as tangible people and continue where our last interactions left off.We witness Mel's struggle in the sup dominance games, and with her quick wit and survival instincts we see her growing into her role as the community Sensor.  Staying true to the warrior woman she is and with her trusty gun she always proves to be tougher than is expected and always rises to the top. Loved the girl power in this book!Nik and Adam play minor roles in this chapter of her story and most of the action takes place in Jeneu after Lucas literally flashes her out of her shower to his home.From this moment on, the story will have any urban fantasy reader hooked and will continue to reel you in as you become addicted to all the new yummy details you are given about Lucas. Many new characters are introduced and we finally learn more about who Lucas really is to Melena, and even discover the secrets behind the frustratingly beautiful man.I'm am so a Lucas fan girl now! Holy hot tamales! Had to fan myself a few times while reading this book.I'm not going to give a plot summary or spoilers about the events of this book, because I can assure you, it is totally worth reading and savoring!Just be ready to grab some tissues and be prepared to rushed with batteling emotions on this crazy ride of a plot.Demons, hybrids, more nephilim, sensors, and angels! Oh my!Along with learning more about Lucas, you also learn someheartbreaking details as Mel discovers who she is. Embracing her gift, herself, and learning to trust are key factors in this tale.Only one complaint from this happy reviewer. . . Why the cliffhanger? Granted, it wasn't the usual type that makes me literally scream or weep in frustration, and the epilogue leaves us with a better ending. But, gee...now I'm going to be biting my nails (not literally) until the next book. (Deep sigh)Ms Illene thank you for a wonderful emotional tale, with everything there is to be loved in this genre! I hold the characters and their stories dear to my heart, as you made me truly feel for each of them. You are a true  talent with words, and I'll be haunting Amazon, waiting for the next book!
