I had I no idea what I was in for, but happily adored the first book in this series. This sequel was just as fantastic. I love the world that Giles has created and the release between hero and heroine is my favorite in a very long time!

I had read the first book in this series and couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one.

I love love love Zoe and X. She’s smart and sassy and he’s just so good and loyal. Together they are adorable and it sweet to see them react to each other. Of course Val and Dallas are fun and I could have had a million more scenes with Ripper and it wouldn’t have been enough. There are a few new characters who were fantastic, but I’ll let you find those.

Plot wise, it was not at all what I expected. I was captivated at the direction it went and thank god the dog lived or I would have been so pissed. The build up was mild, then all of a sudden it was over, and while the ending is satisfying, my main complaint is that I just wanted more.

Overall, this has been a unique story with characters who were easy to root for from the very beginning. I think this is the end of the series, but I’m 10000000% here for another book.

**Huge thanks to Bloomsbury for providing the arc free of charge**

I think I just lost interest for this series, but this is not a bad book in any sense at all, hence why I am giving it three stars. I just don’t think that reading this right now is worth my time.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with the e-ARC.

THE BRINK OF DARKNESS takes a nightmarish hell that nevertheless manages to warm the heart and thrill the soul. A fantastic sequel, this book brings X's tale to new heights that will have you riveted to your seat, biting your nails in anticipation, and hugging the book tightly to your chest with a sweet sigh when finished. Beautifully shared, humor, charm, and horror bleed through these pages as an innocent bounty hunter fights for his freedom and for a love thought impossible.

Loved this book more than the first! It was romantic and action packed!
What a great book and end to a story! It appears to be a duology. It wrapped up nicely though it left me wanting more!! I loved how this book explored the Lowlands and X! Zoe is a wonderful character who keeps growing. It's a great read for those in high school! Some mild language and violence!
Zoe is 17 and in high school so that limits where the story can go. I would have liked a epilogue set 5 or more years in the future! I would also love another book set in the Lowlands! There are so many characters I want to know more about!!! Maybe the author will surprise us later with more books set in this universe!

As I felt with book one, the series is a little too cliche for me. I struggled to read the first in this series and once again struggled with book two. It was an okay read.
