Jessica never ceases to amaze me with her ability to expertly craft and weave a wondrous story, and Reviving Izabel is no exception. This novel picks up several months after Killing Sarai left off. Sarai is "moving on" with her life; she has a best friend, even a boyfriend, but it's all a lie. Plus, she can't get a certain someone out of her mind. This was an excellent addition to the In the Company of Killers series. We see an amazing growth in every single character, and there's the introduction of some new, interesting characters as well. 
 Sarai shows the most growth in this novel. She is no longer timid or scared of Victor. In fact, she's quite the opposite. She wants to learn from Victor, and seek her revenge on those that deserve it. However, throughout the story she never loses her humanity, and by the end, Sarai 
 is 
 Izabel, in every way possible. She also has a great effect on Victor. Because of this, Victor also experiences great changes. He allows himself to be more open and emotional where Sarai is concerned. I loved seeing this side of him because it showed that he is capable of loving despite everything he has gone through and seen, and isn't just a cold-blooded killer. I thought something fishy was going on, but I honestly never expected the major twist in this book with Victor and Sarai. I think it showed a good view of the world that Sarai was being inducted to. I loved the introduction of Fredrick. His character was awesome, dark, twisted, and sexy. Throughout the novel, I was constantly wondering about his character and his back-story, and I definitely wanted more of him. I recently found out that we'll be treated to Fredrick's story, so I'm super excited about that! 
 This novel was fast-paced, and action packed. Everything was very well described, and the story has your heart racing. There's plenty of steamy moments between Victor and Sarai, and I loved every minute. Jessica is an amazing and extraordinary author who can take any idea, and create an entirely new and original idea that will blow your mind. This is definitely a must read for fans of the series (trust me, it won't disappoint), and fans of Jessica. This is a unique and original concept and story, and I've never read anything like it! If you want to be swept off your feet, this is the book for you. I can't wait to see what Jessica has in store for us next! Happy reading :)
