This book was so much better than the first one. I hated Caleb's book because I couldn't stand Allie (and she's not much better in this one) but I really liked Jared and Raisa in this one. The plot was good and the interaction that the characters had was entertaining. My only complaint is that "the Sanctuary" is not really explained well enough. Will definitely be reading Jace's book to find out what happens with him and Miri. 3.5 Stars First off I wanted to say I liked this book better than the first in the series of the Cowboy-Vampires called the Johnson brothers. (Renegades) I liked the cover too and thought whoever was the model for this book is very hot! So we have a civil war of sorts going on, and crazy vampires in the Sanctuary running freaky experiments, although I'd still want to know more about the Sanctuary. The plot is developing while adding more backstory and characters, but I think I still view vampires in their more tradional roles, and Cowboys in their traditional roles. This book started out kind of slow, and I'm hoping as the series continues we have a little less talk, and alot more action...in all manner! *wink, wink* :DJared is much more likeable than Caleb and I loved the connection he forged with his mate Raisa. He is the epitome of tall, dark and handsome with brooding and dominant undertones to his personality. She is a strong, opinionated woman on a mission who was not easily lead. It took Jared forever to have his wicked way with her and even after that things were shakey with these too. Raisa had her heart set on helping out her friend Mari and promised to help her no matter what. She did this almost to the detriment of herself and Jared and the Johnson brothers. Raisa was quite literally starving and was physically very weak, and until she feeds from Jared...not only taking in his blood, but taking him into her heart and claiming him as her mate, she is sickly and unable to travel well. I liked Raisa and she had a pretty awesome power...the ability to control another's energy and she soon became an asset to the Johnson brothers in defending themselves and others.I look forward to putting Jace's story on my TBR list and I suspect Slade will be a good one too.
