The Search; The Descendant Vampire, Book 2 by Kelley Grealis

You know, it's absolutely fantastic when an author tops themselves in a sequel. This book picks up right where the first one left off and doesn't waste any time getting things moving. This is a hard book to say anything about because if I say too much, then I give away things from the first book. And of course, if you've followed me for any time at all, you know I don't do spoilers.

I was excited to dig into this book. So much so that I put off writing the review for the first book just so I could read this one. I'm glad I did, too. The title is so apt for this story. More than one search is happening. Secrets unfold as answers and curve balls abound. I was riveted from start to finish. While not exactly enemies, a short truce is called and Allison and her family gain much needed support from some temporary allies.

As much as I enjoyed the first book in this series, this second book has cemented Grealis as an author I plan to watch. Occasionally I mention that box I label "favorite authors" on those rare occasions when I move. She just ensured I have to start a second box. I was up until 3:00a.m. so I could finish this story. She's also ensured I don't start her books when I have to be in at 6a.m. the next day. Unlike book 1, The Search was perfectly edited. I found no errors in my reading. 5 stars.

This book is available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords.
