This picks up right where the first book ends. Dash and Allie’s relationship is in its formative stage moving into something more. This has a lot of emotional development although it’s Allie’s growth we’re aware of as we have her point of view alone. I did miss having Dash’s, seeing his alphaness and the intensity of his feelings. The author does give us enough signs of those feelings however, so that eased my need for his thoughts to a certain extent.

The mystery here flows around the relationship. There are certainly moments that threaten danger but for me this was all about Dash and Allie. I am curious about the missing Allison, the necklace and the man involved, it just wasn’t my priority.

The chemistry between Dash and Allie is extreme. This couple are hot together even as they are struggling with issues within and outside their relationship. A heat advisory should be given when deciding to read as this was absolutely scorching. I was prepared for a cliffhanger, but didn’t expect it to feel so angsty. Definitely glad the next book is releasing soon.
