I love this series, but during my reread I don't know if it's where I'm actually reading instead of listening to the audiobook, but the POV shifts are so annoying. We don't get a warning before it shifts, and I can't remember if it gets better in the newer books or not. These first books came out back in the 90s. But I love the drama between Roarke and Eve and him trying to make her accept their feelings, which she's not a feely type of person and here we get to see a lot of that. I do miss Mavis and Peabody and can't wait to see more of them! We haven't even met McNab yet! It's crazy. I thought Peabody appeared a lot faster than that. I mean technically we do meet her here she's just more of a background character at the moment. Anyways, this one was a solid book. I liked it a little bit better than the first one.
