Second Rite

Geneva Lee

Thea Melbourne has a broken heart. A month after her world turned upside down, she’s struggling to return to the life she left behind. Her mother is in a coma, she’s selling off designer gowns to pay the bills, and her roommates seem to think she’s made of glass. But when the vampire who broke her heart shows up at the hospital, she learns a devastating secret.

To save the love of his life, Julian pushed her away. Now he has to live with the pain and regret or find someone to put him out of his misery. When it becomes clear that Thea is still in danger, he has a choice to make. He can stay away like the Council demands or risk everything, including their lives, to win her back.

Convincing her means facing his own dark secrets and resisting the temptation to claim her as his mate once and for all. But Thea isn’t going to make that easy for him.

My Review

Second Rite picks up right where Filthy Rich Vampire left off. Thea is heartbroken in more ways than one. Julian sent her packing from Paris, only for her to arrive home and find her mother’s health has taken a turn for the worst.

Julian’s not much better. In broody vampire style, he’s coping with his self-imposed heartache by downing whiskey and swinging fists.

But as we romance readers know, our main couple can only stay apart for so long. And when the two are brought back together, a whole lot of surprises come up. Thea’s reality is flipped on its head; Julian’s world is increasing its pressure on them both; and both of their families reveal secrets that raise more questions than answers.

It’s hard to say more without spoilers, so I’ll just say this: if you read book one and you’re on the fence about book two, what is wrong with you?? What are you waiting for? Read it now! Trust me, it’s worth it.
