Who is ready for the second book in the Half-Light City Series?

BLOOD KIN still includes Simon and Lily (who we met in the first book, Shadow Kin) to some extent,but readers will be introduced to Guy and Holly. Holly is a thief who does her best to stay alive while Guy is Simon's brother and a Templar Knight.

Holly's father isn't very nice to her to say the least, he is a Fae Lord and isn't fond of his half-breed daughter. Holly has to do certain things for him, but what he requires leads her into grave danger. Luckily for Holly, she meets Guy...a Templar Knight willing to help her. The closer the two get, the more their romance and friendship develops, but until then readers are in for a slightly humorous story.

Holly is a strong female character, but she hides a bleeding heart. Her father's cruelty to her mother will be something that Holly will never forget. As a half-breed, she is wary of both "breeds" and doesn't trust easily. She is intelligent and self-sufficient, but is grateful (for the most part) for Guy.

Guy is actually the easier character to like right off the bat. He does seem to have a strict set of values and employs them regularly. His compassion and caring stance towards Holly are to be admired. Their budding romance will probably not come as a surprise to readers, but other events in BLOOD KIN will.

BLOOD KIN does answer a few of the questions that Shadow Kin may have given rise to, but it also leaves you with a few questions too.
