This book was even better than the first, and I am even more excited to see where this series will go. The ending scenes really blew me away, and I also really enjoyed the bonus scenes from another character's perspective as well. I completely sped through them, and really loved it all.

Though the beginning of the book did take a bit to get underway as the scenes were set and roles were recast, the last half was a total nail-biter with all the action and intense plus emotional scenes you could ever want. There was definitely a deeper and more mature Grace in this book. I could totally see it coming, and I loved the slow path it took to get there. This character growth was really rewarding to me, and I liked the way she developed in the romance field. Once the dust has proverbially settled in the first book, Grace begins evaluating their relationship on her own and figuring out what she wants and how Jaxon can fit into her life. I needed more oomph and substance in their relationship. What I loved: One of the things I did not particularly enjoy about the first book was the instalove/mating bond elements of her quick relationship with Jaxon.

You know, just another few months at Katmere, the school for the paranormal. To make things even better, the Circle has arrived with a vengeance, and Grace's future and life is hanging in the balance.

In the meantime, she just has to deal with his snarky and (unfortunately) cute self taking up all her time, while also balancing her schoolwork, learning about her new powers, emotionally healing after the things her classmates put her through, and spending time with her friends and boyfriend. Back in her life, she has feelings she cannot explain and is haunted by the boy who shares her body, Hudson, the psychopath and brother of her mate, Jaxon.Īlthough she is the only one who can see or hear him (except when he takes over her body), getting him out will be quite the process, but Grace is determined to do so. This second book picks up a few months after the first book with Grace coming back to her life without any memory of what happened over the past few months when she was stuck in stone. CRUSH is an intense and nail-biting sequel to CRAVE.
