This is the second book in the Phantom series.

For years movie star Lauren Cole has coveted the sword her husband bought for her, then kept behind glass in their home. She was pulled by the sword and longed for the day when she could touch it and get it out from the glass. Now she and her husband are divorced and the sword is finally, really, hers.

Locked within the sword by a centuries old curse and powerful magic is Aiden Forsyth. When the woman he has admired for years, Lauren, unwittingly releases him from the sword, Aiden vows to find his brothers as he is convinced they suffer the same magical fate.

I liked this book a whole lot better than the previous tale. The previous main characters did nothing for me, I didnt enjoy them and I had a hard time buying into their story. The secondary couple of Ben and Cat are the only things that kept me reading, and they really rescued that story for me.

This time around I loved the main characters and had no problem at all believing in the impossible and the merging of fantasy with reality. They have all the chemistry that the previous couple was missing and then some. Plus as a bonus Cat and Ben were still around and there were also a bunch of other characters to love and hate.

The story is mythical and sexy and as the saga of the Forsyth family continues I am happily along for the ride.
