This review is from: Hybrid Justice (Angel's Blood Book 2) (Kindle Edition)
I was so honoured when I was asked if I would be willing to read and review the advanced copy of this work, plus as a big fan of the first I just couldn't wait to get my hands on it.
This book, for me, was everything I have already come to expect from this author, well written, involved, gripping and enjoyable. I don't get as much time to read as I would like, but again I couldn't put it down, in fact one night I was still up at 5am reading because I just had to know what happened next.
Throughout the book there is the return of previously introduced characters and of course the introduction of new ones. As before I find them well conceived and very real. You can't help but be drawn into their plight and experience their highs and lows. I love how you can see the characters growing and developing, not only from their initial introduction in the first book, but throughout this book as well.
Story wise, it continues from a point not too far from the ending of the first book and introduces a multitude of new ideas opened by the author's initial reinvention of the Vampire/ Werewolf creation myth. Of course right at the centre of it is Tavi, trying to fight her way to the truth and protect all she holds dear, whilst uncovering a complex web that spans far beyond anything she may have comprehended following the events of book one.
For me book two opened a magnitude of new possibilities. I can't wait to see where the author takes us with the third book given the complex events that have started to unravel to show that things go far deeper than was imagined when we first encountered RB.
This series is a must read, it contains so many new concepts that it stands apart from others in the genre and the brilliant characters ensure you, as the reader, are also invested in the story.
A brilliant book, an excellent sequel to Angel's blood, that just leaves me begging the question, when is book three coming out?

Fascinating world of werewolves and vampires 30 Mar. 2015
By Books And Spoons Blog - Published on Amazon.com Format:Kindle Edition Intriguing fantasy, where werewolves and vampires fight for justice, where love, family, and friendships nourish, and trust, hope, loyalty and faith are the key values.
The fantasy world the author has created, with amazing details and fine point manners, habits, and culture to the pack just blew me away. It is dark, gloomy, and violent, mixed with the light, love, and frail world of the pack.
The tight unity, hierarchy of the pack, the team effort for survival, and love and care for each other was solid. Tavi's adapting to the pack life is not without hiccups, but Cade's patient towards her is commendable, and while he is teaching Tavi about the customs of the pack, the reader gets a great inside of it as well.
The love interests within the pack are adorable, and as Tavi and Cade's feelings towards each other grow, yet another new world opens up to Tavi, the world of love, commitment, and passion, not unlike the one she saw in her parents' life.
As the rescue of Zack progress, the fights between good and evil increase. They are bloody, violent, and rough. The only survival with Tavi's extraordinary talents.
The story flow out so beautifully, and even though I don't usually read paranormal stories, I was pulled into the tale. The intriguing details, characters, and culture were a constant amazement, the action and fights between the two worlds savage and intense. The love, passion and commitment growing between Tavi and Cade was precious and pleasing. The author shows just enough of passion between them, without going into too many detailed acts.
Fascinating world of werewolves and vampires, where Tavi's unique qualities and bloodline, gives her, and her pack, an advantage to fight for what's good, right, and just, while adjusting and learning to live with her pack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sometimes, I wish I was a werewolf!!, 31 Mar. 2015 By IAN D. MOORE - See all my reviews Verified Purchase. This review is from: Hybrid Justice (Angel's Blood Book 2) (Kindle Edition) It's times like this that I wish I was a werewolf!
I was privileged and fortunate enough to have been given a draft copy of this book shortly after Sallyann completed it. So taken by the first book Angel's Blood was I, that I pressed and pressed for the second instalment and well, what can I say? Having ploughed into the draft I found it equally enthralling. We see the relationship evolve between our lead characters Tavi and Cade, not to mention a healthy measure of romance between other members of the Camden Falls Pack.
What makes this series different from any other werewolf genre book? It's the addition not only of the "angel" element of things, the effect it has upon Tavi's already formidable abilities, but we also have a strong sense of family ties, we have vampires not only as friends but also arch enemies. The storyline will take you through plots, twists and turns and Sallyann's style of writing is one that you simply cannot help but warm to from very early on. There are scenes described that actually take you to the places in your mind. There are times when you could cut the tension with a suitably sharpened silver bladed knife and times when a werewolf could have been sitting next to me while I was reading and I'd have been none the wiser.
I know already that whatever Sallyann does next is going to be worth reading, indeed I'm already waiting for the next book in this series to be written, along with a long list of other people who have discovered her ability for story-telling. The plots, characters and ease with which the story comes to life are all elements that a reader wants from a good book. In this one, just like the first, you'll not be disappointed I can assure you.
Having read a similar genre book by a much more well-established author some time ago, I can honestly say that these two knock spots off that particular one, to the point where on several occasions throughout Hybrid's Justice, I actually kept reading instead of doing what I should have been doing. For me to do that, it has to be a book with bite ... this has plenty of that! Well done Sallyann, no pressure but ummmm, when's book three coming? :)
