The rescue Rachel is quick, this volume focuses on how she will learn to live after. Thus is invaded by the trauma of Rachel, his doubts and anxieties are well noticeable. I think Maya Banks knew well make it difficult to overcome his addiction, but his amnesia and the return to a normal life. On the side of Ethan, I was touched by his obvious love for his wife, his guilt for what he had said and did a year earlier. Here there is a real reconstruction of a couple after a tragedy, how both are learning to know each other, trust each other. Suddenly, the sensual scenes are present, but not in the heart of romance, feelings take on a much larger share.
