I hadn't read the other two books in this series (this one is #3) but it made no difference to my enjoyment of the story. The author filled in enough details for me to be aware there was a history between these two characters, without retelling the other two books. I read this in two big gulps. It was hard to put down.One thing I liked was that the writing itself was excellent. I didn't feel the urge to edit while reading -- something that I tend to do with books. I was able to forget myself and leap into the story before me. That is my favorite type of book.The characters cared about one another, and were complex creatures with layers. There were distinct differences between the two, and I enjoyed the way they interacted. After I finished the book, I immediately came looking for more by the author. I will be reading many of her books. This was a real treat to read.
