The Darkest Secret by Gena Showalter

4.0

While I am an avid fan of Gena Showalter's Lords of the Underworld series, this one was not my favorite.

Was it good? Yes. Was it paced well enough to keep my attention? Yes. Did I like Amun and Haidee as a couple? Sure. However, as I think often happens within a series, there seemed to be so much going on in the other stories (with Strider and William and Paris and Kaia and so on and so on), that I felt the developing relationship between the protagonists (one of the things that attracts me to this series) was a little rushed and lackluster.

And the ending felt a little over the top cheesy to me: "I am Love!" Really? It seemed a little out of character for Haidee, in my humble opinion.

All in all, though, the book is a wonderful continuation of the series and I look forward to Strider's installment.
