Silas and Nica (Monica) are both strong, likeable, awesome characters that have complicated back-stories. What made this interesting, was the mystery and complexity of those back-stories. Silas and Nica gradually realize they can share a common goal. Charlotte and Max are secondary characters in this one, but still are central to the plot. I liked the opportunity to read about other characters in this unique world. I see (and hope) Charlotte, Max, Nica and Silas will continue to be secondary characters in the other books that I have yet to read in this series. I hope their stories are only beginning especially with the bombshell about one of them at the end of this book.Information is revealed in this book related to the underlying plot-line that started with the first book, Masked by Moonlight. The mystery continues....(What are the Shifters/Trackers/Ancients and how do some of them have abilities that none of the others do? How do they fit (or not) in the hierarchy? Who is kidnapping Shifter women? How does that fit into the overall plot-line? Will Alain get his shit together?) When 2 strangers meet one night they can't deny the immediate attraction to one another. Silas McCreedy knows that Nica is dangerous, but he can't the inner voice within him telling him that Nica is his mate. Nica knows that Silas is different from others and drops her guard a few times when he is around. She can't afford to make mistakes when she has a secret to protect. Once Silas learns Nica's secret,she knows what she has to do, and that's kill him. But she can't bring herself to do that. There is a constant push and pull between these two characters throughout the book. You just don't know if they are on each others side or if they are enemies. Silas is also conducting undercover work to also get information for not only his job as a cop, but to get close to a local crime boss. Silas has a score to settle and get revenge against this person. He doesn't need any distractions and tries to keep his distance from Nica, but they seem to keep running into each other.I had a difficult time getting into this book. The storyline just didn't grab my attention enough for me to be truly interested in what was going on. The introduction of characters throughout the book confused me at times and I found myself getting a little confused as to who did what. I did like the relationship between the two main characters as they fought their own feelings about one another. Nica's character appealed to me the most as I learned more about her character while her secrets were unraveled. I didn't feel a connection with Silas at all and I'm kind of disappointing in that since I tend to enjoy male characters. Overall I'm not sure if this series is for me since I just couldn't get into the storyline.
