** spoiler alert ** 
 Don't get me wrong I liked the story. I am interested to see where it goes for sure, but I can't help but feel like it's a contest (against who I don't know) to see how many times Riley can have sex in each novel and I'm only on the 2nd novel! I didn't mind it so much in the first novel because we were being introduced to Riley and the things she has to go through during the week of the full moon. It was a part of her character only, it turns out, it's not. Apparently the full moon week has nothing to do with her wanting to have sex at every opportunity. She always seems to be ready. I just hope that this trend isn't in the foreground of the remaining 7 novels in the series. 
 I'm really conflicted about it though. I understand what Quinn is trying the ask her. He doesn't want to share her with other people (wolves, horses, etc.) which is what most people strive for in a monogamous relationship. It's the norm for most people in general in a relationship. I understand where he is coming from and I agree. Then Riley counters with te fact that her having sex with muliple people (not at the same time mind you) is part of who she is as a wolf. It's nature to her. So then I understand where she is coming from as well. She shouldn't have to change what is apart of her, as well as she's not asking him to change what is apart of him (drinking blood) because it's something that they each need to survive. And while I still have a problem with the novel in general showing all of Riley's sexula escapades, I still understand that it is a part of who she is. 
 Ok with all of the ranting out of the way about the sex, how about the story? This novel takes off right from the first page. Riley wakes up basically in the thick of everything. She was kidnapped eight days before and doesn't remember anything of that eight days lost. It's an interesting way to open a novel with no aforementioned build up. We don't Riley being kidnapped, it's baiscally second-hand information. That was different than the novels I've been reading lately. I think it worked well. The actual stroy picks up with the same storyline from the first novel, trying to find out who is behind the clones. By the end of the novel it looks like the villain will still be at large if for at least another novel if not two. I don't know if this main story arc can go the rest of the 7 novels left in the series, but we'll see how it develops. The team recveived a lot of information to lead them to the main bad guy by the end of this novel. But by the end it seems like the team will take it's time on this case while training Riley to be a guardian (which was inevitable). So this main story may take a backseat to other conflicts for a while which might be interesting to explore. 
 All the main characters from the first novel are back, and thenwe have 2 new guys for Riley. The only problem I have with them, is the fact that in the first novel we are already aquainted with the idea that Riley needs to be careful with who she trusts. So that makes any surprise newcomers a little sketchy. We'll just have to see how they play out. I almost think Kade and Kellen are ok otherwise it would just be another recycled plot device and it's better to try something new. 
 Misha is the only character lost in this book from the first one. I have to say that I'm glad that he is out of the picture now. It's good that both Talon and Misha are out and Riley can almost start fresh with regards to her love life. He gave all the information he could and after that there was no where else to put him. Riley couldn't fall in love with him (if she was smart which she really is) after finding out all the plotting he has done in the whole cloning business. So there would be no point for his cahracter anymore. It was smart to et rid of him. 
 I like Quinn. Liked him in the first book, like him now. There's clearly still more to learn about him and I'm excited to do so. I'm glad Riley and Quinn are going to give their relationship a chance (at last read they were anyway). Because Riley keeps talking about her werewolf side but all I can think is, what about her vampire side? I don't think we've even begin to tap into that yet. She is half and half afterall, so she should be exibiting some vampire qualities like territoriality and possiveness like we see Quinn has for Riley. Something to explore. 
 So far, I am still completely interested and excited to read the rest of the books in the series. I'm just glad they are all out and I don't have to wait!
