Lia and Luca are drawing closer together, Lord Greco may have met his match at last, and Gabi and Marcello face news that will change all of their lives. Oh, and yeah, the bad guys still want them all dead.

Book Review: Hallowed
By Cynthia HandOnly three books in 2011 made me certain I had to read more from their authors in 2012—Unearthly, Ruby Red, and The Girl of Fire and Thorns. There were plenty of others that I’d be plenty interested in picking up the “next in the series” installments, but Hallowed, the sequel to Unearthly, was a definite. So definite, I preordered it.
