Omg, I loved this one even more than the first!! This is definitely a “fast burn, slow build” why choose, in that this book is primarily focused on Eve and Rurik, with Abraxas being very much a minimally supporting character for the majority of the book. That said, I loved watching Eve fall in love with Rurik, and realize that she did. And I’m soooo looking forward to more of the sexy space-cowboy cop, Officer Hyt in the third book!!
