5 - 5.5 stars (well-earned). 
 Holy....!!! Yeah!! This series is just getting more addictive or what! Seriously! when I read about this book on the back cover, I wasn't sure that the pairing would be this appealing! No, sir! I mean.. some series' level starts to fall after the first couple of books... but Ms. Cold is proving to do even better with every coming book!! I mean, just thinking about how much information that she needs to handle in those books; making sure that nothing more or less escapes her attention is just plain amazing! 
 A definite must read for those who are looking to be surprisingly more in love with Ms. Cole's work. That's definitely more than 5 stars in my books :)
