It's book two in a trilogy, and you know what that means? The hero and heroine are going to separated for some reason, right? It seems like that is what happens in every single trilogy I read ... I fall in love with a couple, only to have them fall apart for much of the second book until they finally find a way to make it work in book three. It can be heart-wrenching at times. Well, before beginning Sweet Peril I was worried for sweet Anna and her bad-boy (sort of) love, Kaidan. There didn't seem to be any way for these two to be together in the crazy world in which they live, and Kaidan seemed determined to not allow his heart to guide both of them to certain destruction. So he left. And that is how Sweet Peril begins. Kaidan is all the way across the country in LA. Months have passed, but Anna is still in love with him and in a definite funk. With legionnaires watching her moves much more closely after the events at the end of the first book, Anna throws herself into her work as a drinking tempter. She goes from being known as the good girl to being known as the party girl. She has changed. Sort of. The reality is that she is still the good girl she has always been, but she is trying to make things work in a world where she is required to at least appear like she is tempting the people around her to drink alcohol. Seeing Anna like this was a little sad for me. I felt like part of her was being destroyed each time she worked for the Dukes to bring others down. I think that Kaidan agrees.To all of you Kaidan fans out there ... be aware that he is not around for much of the first half of the book. When he is, it is awesome, but for most of the first half of the book Anna is sent on missions with Kopano. They are travelling around the world to recruit possible Neph allies to help them overthrow the Dukes and bring freedom to the Nephs. Kopano is in love with Anna. Anna finds herself mildly attracted to Kopano, but it is nothing compared to her feelings for Kaidan. Kaidan seems unattainable. Kopano would be an easier relationship. But Anna can't bring herself to feel that way about him. I was a bit worried that we were heading into love triangle territory, but it never quite gets there, thank goodness. I do love Kopano as a character, and I felt so bad for him at times in this story ... but I think things are looking up for him by the end of the book. Hurray!
VERY mild spoilery ahead:
I loved this second book in the Sweet trilogy. I will admit that there is a different feel to this book compared to the first book. For much of the book Anna and Kopano are sent on missions. We are introduced to other Nephs who are not so happy with their lot in life. There is a lot of angst about Kaidan and his apparent lack of feelings for Anna coupled with Kopano and his multitude of feelings for her. I felt like we were almost in a holding pattern, waiting for something to happen to light a fire somewhere, either between Anna and Kaidan or Anna and Kopano. Finally, half way through the book that fire is lit. And it was AWESOME! Kaidan and Anna had some great scenes together leading up to that point, but it was in the airport as Anna was leaving Kaidan that we finally got to see Kaidan come clean about his feelings for her. I LOVED that scene. After waiting a book and a half Kaidan and Anna were going to be together. Somehow. The truth is that they still face the danger from the Dukes who do not allow relationships among their children. If they are discovered, Kaidan and Anna will be publicly killed. Add to that the fact that they are actively plotting to overthrow the Dukes, and Anna and Kaidan are in some serious danger if the truth comes out.
I adore Kaidan as a character. He has spent his entire life locking his heart because of his horrible responsibilities to his father, but Anna changes him. He wants to be good ... or at least better. This pull in him is so fascinating. But I have to admit, in this book I missed a bit of his internal struggles. Once he chose to be with Anna he lost a bit of his edge. Don't get me wrong. I was cheering him on all the way, and I am glad for his decisions in this book, but after the issues between Anna and him are mostly resolved, a great source of conflict in the story ended. What follows is A LOT of great Kaidan romantic moments. He is definitely AMAZING, but taking away that anxiety he had been dealing with for so much of the first book and the beginning of this one also ended up taking away some of the elements that made the previous book soar above a crowded field of paranormal romances. I still loved it, but it did knock this story down a tiny little bit for me.
I have to admit, I expected the entire world to fall apart for Anna at some point during the second half of this book. Once she seemed to finally get the chance to be with Kaidan officially I was convinced that something horrible was going to happen to take this away from her. I thought that they would be caught and punished. I thought that one of their friends would end up being a traitor. I thought that someone would end up dead. So every scene was so stressful to me. Stuff does happen, but nothing as horrible as I was expecting. I'm going to have to go back and re-read this, knowing that. It will help me to savor the moments a lot more. In a way, I think that this really shows the power of Wendy Higgins's writing because as a reader I was feeling the same sort of day to day anxiety about the future as the main characters were. Very well written in this regard!
This is a great addition to the Sweet trilogy. There is a lot that these Nephs are going to have to overcome in the finale. But Anna and Kaidan have each other finally. And they have a good and solid group of friends at their side (I love Blake!). I can't wait to see what happens next. Four stars!

Sweet Peril Sweet Evil Wendy Higgins Books Reviews
Sweet Peril is amazing! Fast paced full with romance and killer demon trouble. An exciting sequel to Sweet Evil.
Wendy has been working hard lately, trying to keep up her appearance. Right now, everyone has to work hard, since they are being watched.
Once things have settled a little things start to heat up! First the nun comes by as a spirit to talk to Ann. After the message has been told, Ann quickly rings her dad. Once he arrives they talk and make a plan. Anna and her Neph allies will fight back. Anna has the ability to destroy all these demons. The message told by nun mentioned that once Ann destroys one there is a choice. Either they are given a second chance to heaven or they go straight to hell. So Anna's dad may get the chance to be with his love again. You know whats even better? If they are all gone they are free!! Whoop whoop, there is more but I'll keep that to myself.
Anna and Kapono are off on adventures to get other Neph as allies. They manage to get a few on their side, which is good. Of course Kai and Blake are joining them. Speaking of Kai, he and Anna become something!!!!!!! Ekkkk I want to say so much, but how do I say it without spoiling it all!? Well lets just say when Anna and Kai become BFGF it's sooo cute and funny. Just getting Kai to say it in the book is fun.
In the book Kai and Kapono go on a mission together. You can only imagine how this is gonna be, after reading about these three. Tension, suspense, and oh yeas the romance!! Sweet Peril has everything we have been dying to read since book one ended. Now I can't wait for the next book. I neeeeeed more Kai and Anna, and finding out what will go down with the dukes. OMG the waiting part is the hardest. I give this book 5 stars!
Is loving someone worth risking their life?
The sequel was such a great addition to this sweet series! Such a darkly, seductive, sexy and thrilling read that lures you in like a siren's song and captures your attention...forever.
Kai will forever have my heart. My book boyfriend. Forever. #ISighForKai
Such an emotionally charged and dangerous read that will leave your emotions all over, feeling sick and afraid.
Full of nephilim, demons, angels, good versus evil, prophecy, allies, secrets, deception, loyalty and love.
Perfect for readers of paranormal romance.
Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins opens with a story from Rome in the 1700’s where two Nephilim are punished for loving each other. Six months have passed since book one and since Anna and Kaidan have seen each other. Kaidan and Anna know they need to stay apart for their own safety as well as the safety of the rebelling Nephilim and supporting demons. Anna has been given a mission and she’s going to be working with Kope. Their mission is to save a young woman in a part of the world where women are devalued, degraded and abused. Her name is Zania. Kope and Anna meet with two Nephilim and then their emotions get in the way, so they decide traveling together is too difficult. Anna then travels alone and she is finally able to have a conversation with Kaidan and they are finally honest with each other and learn how to make their relationship work. Unexpectedly, Kope and Kaidan work together, by wearing Arabic disguises and saving Zania by pretending to purchase her for slavery. Blake, Kaidan, Anna, Kope and Zania are forced to hide in the cold ocean water because the Dukes come to the island they are staying on. While shivering in the water, they are witnesses to a Nephilim murder by the Neph’s own father. The group works with Anna’s father, continually strategizing to build the rebellion up. Sweet Peril is just as exciting as the first book, Sweet Evil, in this supernatural series by Wendy Higgins. 5 stars!
