Cane did it to me again! I stayed up all night with the Shiv Crew!! The story is great and the characters are amazing. Rune is constantly fighting with who she is and not turn back into her dark hiding place. Just like with the first book it had my attention right from the beginning. With the mystery the shiv crew has to solve and Rune being pulled into 6 different directions. Well the saying no rest for the wicked comes to mind. I just love Rune even more than I did after reading the first book. She's strong, determined, and has a need to protect. In this book Rune actually begins asking for help from her Crew. That's such a huge step for Rune, her time away helped. I am just dying to find out how Rune is connected to the Vampire Master. I'm going to have to grab that next book and find out NOW!! If you love a great paranormal read with mystery, romance, and lots of butt kicking read the Shiv Crew!!!
