Kylie Galen wants the truth so badly she can taste it. The truth about who her real family is, the truth about which boy she's meant to be with - and the truth about what her emerging powers mean. But she's about to discover that some secrets can change your life forever... and not always for the better.

Just when she and Lucas are finally getting close, she learns that his pack has forbidden them from being together. Was it a mistake to pick him over Derek? And it's not just romance troubling Kylie. An amnesia-stricken ghost is haunting her, delivering the frightful warning, Someone lives and someone dies. As Kylie races to unravel the mystery and protect those she loves, she finally unlocks the truth about her supernatural identity, which is far different - and more astonishing - than she ever imagined.

It took me a surprisingly long time to finish this book, but I think that has more to do with the fact that I haven't been in a reading mood (a shocker, I know!) than with the book itself. Last night I suddenly got in the mood again and read 200 pages in one evening, so it can't have been all bad.

I enjoyed this follow-up to the Shadow Falls series. Sure, it has its faults - Kylie is still quite the Mary Sue, and at times the plot is incredibly disjointed - but generally it's just plain fun, so I can forgive it its faults. I liked that we got a few more answers this time, and LOVED Miranda's kangaroo :D That made me laugh out loud.

I'm annoyed by both Lucas and Derek, so don't know what outcome I'm hoping for there... preferably neither, I guess.
