"Dangerous to be together. Painful to be apart. Savannah Colbert knows she broke up with Tristan Coleman for the right reasons. Most of all, to keep from killing him with her new vampire abilities. But try telling her heart. Now, lost in a sea of hostile Clann faces, Sav tries to come to terms with what she's becoming and what that means for her future. And that someone is doing their best to bully her into making a terrible mistake.
Tristan can't believe Sav won't even talk to him. If being apart is her decision, fine. Just don't expect him to honor it. But even as he prepares to fight for the girl he loves, forces beyond their control take them both in directions neither could have foreseen or prepared for.
A reckoning is coming? and not everyone will survive."

Alright so here we go! Ms. Darnell certainly delivers an awesome story to the reader. Chapter after chapter, I dove myself deeper into the story never wanting to step out.

What I loved most about this book is the characters. Much has happen since and Savannah is learning thing the hard way. She is stronger and much wiser in this book. She knows what she needs to do despite how is affects her feelings. Plus, with her growing vampire side, Savannah is also growing her culture. She is learning more about being a vampire and becoming more aware of consequences. Tristan has unwavering faith. With all that is said to him he still won’t listen. It’s only makes me want to grab him and kiss HIM! He is amazing in helping Savannah in every way possible. NO matter what, he makes sure that he will always find a way. And boy does he ever…

The plot of the book is fast-paced with lots of juicy secrets. The Clann has members who are not who they seem to be plus with some added crazies to the side. I like that the action is spread evenly through out the story. It’s not thrown at you all at once, but little by little the reader become self aware of what the bigger picture is. Those parts are the coolest!

Love. Faith. Courage. Their love has sustained through so much, and I can only hope that is continues to do so. I like that they truly were friends to each other till the end. When one was down, the other helped get them back up and vice versa. This is a love that continues to grow even with all the hatred being thrown at them.

Covet is an awesome sequel! With much action, Covet takes down the reader leaving the door open with many opportunity to do so much more! I’m so excited to see how this story will end. Covet is dynamic with an explosive ending, leaving me wanting more!

I give it 5 BITES!

Happy Reading!

    There are so many series out there I haven’t had time to get to Savy, it’s giving me a complex. I want to have time to read them all, but obviously that’s not possible. I do hope to make time for this series though, and I’m glad to see the second book got the highest of ratings and doesn’t seem to suffer from any common second book issues:)
