Fantasy. Fiction. Romance. HTML: Once more Wren Valere's game plan has taken an unexpected direction. She'd agreed to a bargain with one supersecret magic-watching outfit to protect her and her partner on their last job. But now the Silence is trying to wedge them apart. On the one hand, ever since she and Sergei began to talk about their "relationship," things have been tricky. On the other, though... Well, no one better try to stand between Wren and Sergei when danger is near! So now they are off to Italy in search of a missing artifact, without any information other than the fact that it's very old, very dangerous and everyone who gets too close disappears. Still, when compared with what's going on at home (lonejacks banding together, a jealous demon, tracking bugs needing fumigation, etc.) maybe disappearing wouldn't be so bad.... As if!.… (meer)

Wren and Sergei are working for the Silence and are after a paper that was stolen from the library of an ancient Italian monastery. Unbeknownst to them the papers that are missing may help bring about the end of the world. (

Book: 1 star. Sleeping Aide: 10 stars! (

If I had read this book in order, I wouldn't have read the rest of the series--fairly graphic sexual encounter. Other books in the series don't have that... (

A trip to Italy should be romantic, right? But for Wren and Sergei their first job for the Silence isn't so much a vacation as a slippery slope into a world of intrigue and missing information. As her relationship with Sergei heats up, the distractions multiply: ancient evil, prejudice, missing Talents, and insidious plots too close to home.... A lonejack's rule one may be "don't get involved" but Wren's never been much of one for coloring inside the lines.

It's hard to think of Wren as invisible given her penchant for finding trouble; come on, everyone seems to know where to find her - LOL! And woo-hoo, did things get steamy there for a second or what? (

Evil magic from the distant past! Complex (and deadly) politics between the Council of Mages, lonejacks, and the fatae, not to mention the Silence. Suspense, sex, and problems with laundry! I enjoyed the first book, and this one is just as fast-paced and entertaining.

"Next time," Sergei muttered out of the corner of his mouth, not taking his eyes off the security guard leaning against a wall several paces ahead of them, "we're taking a boat."
