The second installment of Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress Series was even better than the first. I loved the addition of Cat’s team; Dave, Juan, Cooper, and Tate. I think Spade will be a cool character too. I’m waiting to see some sort of show-down between Justina (Cat’s mom), Max (Cat’s father), and Cat. I think there is more to the story and I think Cat’s mom may not be the victim she’s lead Cat to believe she is. I enjoyed this book so much I’m going to jump right into the next one.

Given the amount of press this series has gotten and the fact that it still seems to be going strong I was hopeful that book two would be better than the series opener. It was. We get more of that wonderful Cat and Bones chemistry and I loved the new characters. Cat's role in a super secret supernatural hit squad was great. I liked the interaction between Cat and her team and I really began to feel invested in the people (?). I pretty much just read straight through and the ending had me perched on the edge of my seat. I liked the resolution - a little predictable but it did have a twist that kept me interested till the very last page. Moving on to book three.

Frost was definitely on a role with the second instalment of the Night Huntress Series. The super independent and wonderfully powerful in her own right, Mac, joined the Special Forces unit created to hunt down murdering vampires after leaving Bones high and dry at the end of the first book. Four years later she still hasn’t gotten over him and she’s made quite a name for herself as the Red Reaper. When she gets called to a murder scene back in her home town that took place in her old farm house she wonders if she’ll run into her first and only love. She gets more than she bargains for when she finds pieces of rock from Bones cave in the house. Is Bones trying to lure her out by killing innocent humans or has someone else discovered her? After all, he did tell her he would never stop looking for her. But with a list of vampires as long as her arm after her it’s hard to say, and if/when he does find her will he be ticked or happy to see her? Come on…it’s Bones! He told her he’d always protect her. The two of them kicking butt together when Bones comes back in the picture to help Cat find out who’s trying to kill her brings back the wonderful dynamic we saw in the first book. The chemistry between Mac and Bones is wonderful. Erotic and intense doesn’t even begin to explain how they are in this instalment of the Night Huntress Series. Frost is amazingly witty with the bantering between her characters. Let’s hope she can keep it up throughout the series. I’m looking forward to finding out.

I love this series, Cat and Bones are the best fictional couple in a paranormal EVER! I love that she is such a strong female, and can go toe to toe with Bones, she doesn't need to be rescued by her man. I'm even hard pressed to label this series a paranormal romance, because even though the chemistry between Cat and Bones is smoking hot, the romance is just a bonus because the action and the storyline are so well written. This series only gets better as it goes and Frost really stamps her signature on the genre. I cannot recommend this series enough, even if you haven't tried a paranormal romance before!

Gah... This was just all kinds of ways good, the question here is why did I leave the delicious and uber sexy Bones sitting on my TBR shelf for so long? I mean I knew this was going to be great, I figured Cat was going to kick some major butt and I'd already heard all the rumours about the infamous chapter 32 So why the wait?? I just don't have an answer. Anyways I loved this second part in the Night Huntress series. So where to begin? How about awesome, exciting, erotic, hilarious, bloody, sigh-worthy, movie-worthy, clever, romantic, thrilling, passionate, vengeful, intense, emotional, surprising, freakin fantastic and ultimately addictive. One Foot In The Grave gave me everything I could possibly want in a paranormal romance and then some. Half Vampire Cat Crawfield is now working for an underground section of the government. She and her (awesome) team help rid the world of those bad rogue Vampires. You know the ones that use humans as hors d'oeuvres. When we begin Cat hasn't seen her beloved Bones in 4 years although she's still using everything he taught her, still quick with a dagger and still slaying readers with witty one-liners. One of the great parts of this book is the anticipation the reader feels waiting and wondering when and just how they're going to get back together. And I will admit I was surprised at seeing this softer broken side of Cat that still pined for Bones (who wouldn't) Ultimately their reunion is everything you'd hope for; violent, romantic, hilarious and very sexy. (It also left me craving a Gin) Bones is once more unwavering in his love for Cat, luscious to listen to and retains his title as my ultimate literary boyfriend. With Bones back in her life Cat now has some explaining to do. Like why is he still alive? There are more pressing issues to deal with though and with her team "merely" human the only one able to protect her from the master Vampire who's targeted her for assassination is Bones. All Cat's got to do is train and keep her team alive, deal with that pesky hit man, do full contact Pilates with Bone's ex and kill her father. All without losing Bones again in the process. So as you've guessed I loved this and although I'm not one for the tough action heroines Cat in a brawl with the bodies piling up is just too awesome and that last battle with the 7ft Grendel is something else. My only complaint here would have to be Cat's mother and her continued arguments with Bones which both annoyed and bored me. However we're given a bunch of fabulous new secondary characters to drool over, who I hope to continue getting to know as the series continues. In particular the newly transformed Dave (although I adored the entire team) and a couple of charming new Vamps. And I promise I won't keep Bones on the shelf for another year. Cheers

The second book in the Night Huntress series is a winner. My second time reading this book, and it was just as awesome as ever. Cat and Bones are back in a big way, and this is a series not be missed. This book picks up where the first one left us without Bones, and Cat wallowing in all her self-pity, thus causing my Bones pain. Well he is back with his “Hallo, Kitten” and it gives tingles to the spine. Give a dog a bone already, because I am would pull out some serious doggy tricks. I would give him my paw, roll over, beg (a lot) just for the taste of some Bones. Seems Cat is now involved in an agency tracking down and killing evil vampires, and her job just got closer to home, I mean family issues and mixing work with pleasure. Everyone wants a piece of the elusive Red Reaper, and they are forking up the cash to see her head on a platter. Well this a$$-kicking lady won’t go down without a fight; I am talking silver blades in hearts, and decapitation just another day in paradise. Cat has to face some serious issues, when her intimate relationship with a vampire gets the third degree at work, but to hell with it, she is so not giving him up for a second time. To hell with what her boss says and her crazy ass mom (and I do mean crazy). This book has a lot of new characters, that instantly will become faves and others just piss you off *ahem* that Ahole Tate. Its like dude get over it and move on because “ Once you go dead, no one else is better in bed” pay attention Tate. The action is quite solid, it moves with wicked fluidity and it is quite hilarious. Cat at times might piss me off but, she is a kick-a$$ female who can handle anything, she just need to smarten up a bit. Bones is there anything bad about him, he is pure awesomeness, has and English accent, and he is one of the sexist characters in a PNR. This series is wicked fun, and if there is any reason to read this series, chapter 32 is that reason. Just pure fun and sexy as hell, I’m a shut up now! 2010-052

Yeah, I know I stole that title from the Chili Peppers, but it really did just seem to suit how I feel about this book. Firstly, compared to her first book (Halfway to the Grave) you can really see how Frost has evolved as a writer. She has improved greatly and stayed well clear of all those little annoying things that beginners and plain old bad writers tend to gravitate towards. Secondly, her characters have evolved as well. There is a very obvious change in the main character from book one to two and yet it's still believable. There is a crassness and vulgarness to all of her characters that makes them seem that much more real. They swear, at themselves and at each other. They think and act like real people. I always feel sort of silly saying this about characters who are vampires or ghouls or whatever, but they didn't seem contrived. Some conversations sounded very much like some I've had with my best friend. It made it that much more believable. Thirdly, there are parts of this book you will want to be alone with. That and you'll want to go out and find yourself a vampire lover. I know I want one! The romance is sexellent. A word I reserve for just such description as nothing else will do it justice. I'm surprised this book didn't burst into flames the moment it was printed, it's just that hot.

This novel was better than the first. Cat and Bones by the end of the first novel is separated due to Cat getting her new job and protecting Bones. I find this book one of my favorites in the series. In the first little bit you read about Cats new job and her team but Bones will hunt her down and he will find her. Remember he promised this in Halfway to the Grave…and when he does find her there will be trouble to pay.

This book starts out with Cat and Bones still seperated. It has been 4 year since they have last seen each other and Cat is now heading up her own vampire hunter team. Cat has been busy killing bad vampires and word has gotten out about the famous red reaper (she is called that because of her hair colour). Cat get sent out on a mission to kill a master vampir who has killed two humans. When Cat gets there she finds out that the vampire is Ian, the vamp who created Bones. Out of her love forBones Cat cannot kill Ian and lets him go. Only problem is that now Ian is infatuated with her, and will do anything to get her. Through all this Bones hears about where Cat is staying and comes to find her. Their relationship picks right back up where it left. This was a good follow up to Halfway to the Grave. I was happy to see Cat and Bones back together and i enjoyed the other members of Cats team, Cooper, Tate, David and Juan.

Wow, what a wild ride this installment of the Night Huntress series turned out to be. More characters, more gore, more heated exchanges between Cat & Bones….just altogether more!!! Forget the teen angst offered up by the likes of Meyers in favor of the totally adult romance put forth by Frost. Packed full of action from the first page to the very last, this book is absolutely irresistible & I would wager that you will not be able to pry yourself away from the story once you start.
