Most days, Anwen regrets working at a funeral home. With the residents no longer inclined to stay in their coffins where they belong, sheâ??s got her hands full making sure everyone follows the rules:In the funeral home, there is no screaming, no murdering, no mutilation, no possessions, no kidnappings, no resurrections, and no cursing of any type. Be quiet and stay polite. The day Old Man McGregor decides to take a walk and disturbs her peace, Anwen learns thereâ??s a lot more to the basement in the funeral home than a vampire and a handsome gentleman on ice. If sheâ??s not careful, sheâ??ll learn first-hand why â??eternally yoursâ?? is the most potent of threats. Warning: this novel contains romance, humor, bodies, shenanigans, and mythological puppies.

Not a favorite - it advances (what I think is) the series arc, with a lot about the End of Days, but he's something of a blank and she's... Low self-esteem is annoying; self-destructive low self-esteem is worse (particularly when she runs away from the hospital). I can understand her shying away from hope, but it still annoys me. And both of them are rather sketchy as characters, mostly there to support the High Mythos stuff. Plus the Devil (and his wife, and many mentions of his daughter), a couple-three archangels, little stuff like that. The villain is pathetic, only useful for what he triggers. It's not an awful story, but not hugely interesting as RJ Blain stories go. ( )

Much better

This novel is better than the previous in the series. Not to say it doesn’t have flaws, but there is a greater sense of narrative flow. There is also quite a bit of world building.

The biggest flaw is Bad Guy. While the MC is well established, the Bad Guy is barely an outline. Even at the end, he is more a sum of what information has been shared than actual actions. Some his actions don’t really fit what little we know of his nature. His motivations are simply dumped out and not thoroughly explained.

The romance part is actually a bit lacking. Aside from some lustful gazing and a little innuendo, there is no romance. Really rather tepid.
