5th in series.
I actually found myself torn on this book.
While I love reading about Georgina and Seth, I wasnt too thrilled with this book. Georgina gets kidnapped and mentally tortured by Nyx's children throughout 75% of this book. Even though we get to learn about Georgina's past, the replays of it werent really all that important to the plot. Georgina goes through a lot of mental anguish in this story. Seth and Maddie are getting married, another succubus is impersonating her, the question about her contract with Hell is brought back up, someone she knows is murdered trying to reveal the contents of the contract, and another someone she knows is deemed termanilly ill. If thats not enough of a hard pill to swallow, Seth accidentally called Georgina by her mortal name: Letha, and now Georgina is left with more questions than ever. Seths' soul is now darkened with the guilt from cheating on Maddie, and its no longer pure, but more like a shadow. Now Georgina is going back and forth on wether or not she really wants to be with Seth. Hmmf.
I would say its definitely worth the read if you have followed the series from the beginning. This is not a stand alone book. Im keeping my fingers crossed that the final book will blow me away!

WOW what a book! Georgina Kincaid sure does get around. The trouble she gets in almost rivals Anita Blake though in a different direction. I was shocked that Georgina was helping with planning Seth's wedding to Maddie. WTF! I seriously did not see that coming since she is so in love with him and Maddie is her best friend.
When Georgina is dream-napped, the torture is unbelievable and extremely cruel. Her entire cadre of friends (Jerome, Roman, Carter, Erik and of course Seth) join forces to bring her back. Very exciting situation. The cliff-hanger ending is killing me. Erik kept saying two contracts. Boy do I ever wonder whose.

Darker than previous books, Georgina is sucked into her worst nightmares. Her friends try to find her, some surprise her with their feelings, but she has disappeared. This is pure torture for her and those who care for her. She has dreadful event after dreadful event threatening to break her.Roman, Seth, Maggie, Jerome, Carter, Erik, Cody, Peter and Hugh the ole gang is still their with some new characters thrown into the mix, nasty ones. There was not enough Carter for me, I like him. Perhaps the next book. This one ending with us semi-hanging on a cliff...What will happen ??? So the series continues, YES !
