A good follow up to the first book in the series. There is a cliffhanger at the end but since the third book is out already it shouldn't really bother anyone. I would have liked to have felt a bit more wooing/light flirtatious action from Darach and Ceithin but even with the light subtle hints of feelings building between them it was a good read. The plot thickens and readers are introduced to Eoin in this one.
