I could go on about this book for absolutely ages. It is hands down my favourite one of the IAD series, I would read it again and again.
Kresley Cole took a bit of a leap I feel with this one as she introduced a new couple that had not been mentioned or even hinted to before. Whilst Jo has connections to other characters from previous books, Rune's background is again entirely new. I think KC risked these characters therefore not really being accepted by IAD readers but they are absolutely brilliant. Funny, confident, feisty, full of individual personality that gets full development. I love both of them and I love the story they are given. I love the book after this that follows the same group of characters (Wicked Abyss) where Jo and Rune show up again!
I could say more but just... 5 stars, brilliant in all ways.
