Mortal Danger by Eileen WilksMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Coming To Terms With Their Bond
This book follows almost directly on from the first book in the series. Lily is recovering from a bullet wound, but still has to attend her sister’s wedding as a bridesmaid, even whilst wearing a sling.
They are still missing the staff that Helen used to create such mayhem, and Patrick Harlowe, a charismatic leader of a strange cult, is very likely to have it. The power the staff holds is enormous and they desperately need to find it, in order to contain it and destroy it, no matter the government seems to want to hang on to it.
Then at the wedding Lily is attacked and no one seems to know who did it and why, only that she feels a sense of magic on her bullet wound. With no way of knowing what happened and why, they can’t defend her against anything that comes.
This is actually a very clever plot line that helps Lily and Rule come to terms with their relationship, which was determined by The Lady (the Lupi’s goddess). When your choices are taken away from you, it’s much harder to accept those choices that were made on your behalf, even if in the end they work out ok. Rule and Lily like each other and have the magic fuelled passion, but they don’t love each other and they are tied together for the rest of their lives. This book helps them to handle this truth.
There are some sweet and poignant moments in this book. I really enjoyed it.
