Harlow and Augustine are still tap dancing around each other and they start to tango in this newest book. The book picks up right where book one House of the Rising Sun left off. Painter takes this romp to unexpected places, with many, but not all, of Harlow's family secrets revealed. Kristen Painter’s newest book City of Eternal Night, the second book in her Crescent City series, should not be missed by urban fantasy readers. Harlow struggles throughout with the emergence of new powers as well as an almost literal emptiness inside her that seems to be expanding: apt metaphors for a young woman finding herself. But the kidnappers aren't asking for money they're asking for Augustine's life. Possible suspects are cunning witch sisters Zara and Gisselle, who want freedom from fae regulation, and the evil Branzino, Harlow's fae father. She currently writes the best-selling paranormal romance series, Nocturne Falls, and the cozy mystery spin off series, Jayne Frost. She loves to entertain her readers with interesting twists and unforgettable characters. Their romance tentatively creeps along in this otherwise stirring installment as they set out to solve the mystery of a young woman's kidnapping from the Mardi Gras Exemplar Ball, the biggest fae event of the year. USA Today Best Selling author Kristen Painter is a little obsessed with cats, books, chocolate, and shoes. Computer whiz Harlow is trying to come to terms with her fae abilities and her attraction to playboy and New Orleans fae Guardian Augustine. Painter delivers on her promise of excitement and romance in the second installment of the Crescent City Series (after House of the Rising Sun).
