This book was well written but I was disappointed. I expected a smart mystery with an intriguing MC and supernatural elements. Instead I got a half-baked medieval romance where everyone told the MC that the love interest was violently in love wih her. As the first book of the year, it was lacking. Still I liked it enough to continue the series.

This took a left turn about 1/3 in and became a different story than advertised. The concept wasn't bad but it seems something that should've been done at book 5 or 6 not book 2. It also forced relationships to move faster than seemed necessary. I didn't like the ending at all. I didn't know that I'll continue with this series. So much potential but it's like the author decided after she started writing that she wanted something else entirely.

Overall, I liked this better than the first book in the series, but didn't like where this book ended. I am interested to see where the next book (if there is one) goes.

It took me longer than I'd hoped to finish book # 1 (a nap or two may have contributed to this), but now I can start book # 2. My earlier nap will probably make it difficult for me to go to sleep, so I should be able to get a good start on this.
