Things get personal for Lily and Rule after Patrick takes Lily's sister

What I enjoyed:
* We meet Cynna who is a finder. She doesn't really fit the FBI mold.
* We find out more about the lupi and meet their Rhej (keeper of memories)
* Lily and Rule take an unintended trip to Dis (Hell)
* The demon Gan is a very interesting character who we will learn more about
* Dragons!

What could have been better:
* There was too much explanation of magic and demons, it bogged the story down
* The time is Dis was conf ...more

This installment picks up shortly after book one ends providing closure to those threads. Lily & Rule seemed to be pre-occupied with new relationship-dom. She with the trivia and he with the guilt. This made some of their scenes necessary but not so much a gift as they worked through this theme. This read also featured a large chunk of time in a new location that may or may not become important to the series. However, the time spent in Dis was overlong for my taste. (Though my lu ...more

A bit disappointed as I didn't think the explanations made sense. Lily is trying to understand and control the mate bond that she and Rule have. If it was up to Rule, he would put Lily in a little safety bubble but Lily is FBI and she likes to think she can take care of herself. She grouses at the plans he makes without informing her, he makes plans without telling her knowing she would refuse. (view spoiler) A bit disappointed as I didn't think the explanations made sense.

(view spoiler) They are wary of the imminent attack and the stick/staff that the FBI wants to capture rather than destroy as they know that it needs destroying. They are doing regular family and friends things, at a wedding. We get to see them as a couple and how Lily is still unsure of the interplay and mate bond. They are in a discussion on living together even though at the beginning of their mate bond and they could not even be 100 yards away from one another. It has become better but still has pull. I'm wondering 'how can they live apart with that?' First 1/2.

A show down occurs and the whole plot of the book changes. There are definitely some interesting occurrences in this second half but many of them don't make sense. Still the new direction and characters and the case of a split being was interesting (at first). New creatures are introduced and we need to figure if they are truthful, helping or hindering. (view spoiler) If more of this plot had feasible reasonable answers, I may have liked the whole better but it all seemed "created just for" the situation. Also if it didn't end so abruptly and we got some epilogue with some other explanations, it might have helped.

It was OK/Good for me. Since I remember the 1st being pretty good, I've bumped up and probably will try one more. ...more

From Goodreads:

Former cop Lily Yu has her sister's wedding to attend, a missing magical staff to find, and now must deal with her grandmother's decision to return to the old country. Lily could turn to the man she's involved with for advice, but for all the passion that flares between them, she doesn't really know Rule Turner--she's just bound to him for life. Rule happens to be a werewolf, and Lily wonders just how far she can trust him.

Read a string of not-so-good books. Mortal Sin broke that chain. It's a good book, but my mind tends to wander from it. Just not gripping me tight enough.

I enjoyed Mortal Sin more than the first book. Even though it took me forever to read I'm going to give it a 4.
