Bremy St
James is back in a brand new adventure, mixing chaos, humour, sex, and
superheroes in this fresh, funny, flirty series. It’s the superhero romance you
didn’t know you needed…
Fresh off
thwarting the crime of the century, Bremy St. James is back and more determined
than ever to fight by the side of the city’s top superhero, Dark Ryder. There’s
just one problem: Dark Ryder’s disappeared.
To make
matters worse, Bremy’s evil billionaire father, Atticus, is taking her lack of
family loyalty very personally, and Bremy’s last tie to her old life, her
reason behind her choices—her sister—is distancing herself as well.

With Dark
Ryder missing after the first novel, Bremy St. James is on her own in the
city’s dark streets, trying to be a super heroine, but no one is taking her
seriously. Dark Ryder has been seen on rooftops shouting weird things and
acting completely strange, and Bremy is worried that her father is to blame for
her strange actions. But Ryder’s mentor, Choden is also missing. And Bremy’s
father is definitely up to no good. This time he may even kill Dark Ryder if
Bremy can’t stop him. But she can’t even stop a purse-snatcher, how could ever
hope to stop her super villain father?
This was
another exciting tale of Bremy St. James, Dark Ryder’s Sidekick wannabe. All of
the regulars from the first novel are back, and throw in a few more this time
around for some more hijinks. Bremy’s mobster landlord gets her involved in
underground wrestling, plus she’s still working at the strip club as a gopher
for the strippers. All of her crime-stopping attempts end in her looking like a
fool. Poor Bremy begins thinking maybe she doesn’t have what it takes. Then to
her surprise her wheel-chair-bound twin sister does become a super heroine
through their villainous father’s manipulations in the scientific laboratory.
But she’s working for their evil father. There’s no one to save Dark Ryder. No
one, unless …
I really
loved the original cover for the first book, as it featured a super heroine,
but I think the publisher wants a new look for the series, so now the covers
feature a boring image of just a beautiful woman. I wasn’t expecting the ending
(and a new beginning, maybe?), and I did miss Dark Ryder, as she is not around
to help Bremy in this adventure. She’s a captive in the lab of the super
villain. To be honest, I like Bremy, but I’m a fan of Dark Ryder too, and I
really wanted to see more of her, as she takes care of her bumbling Sidekick.
Still, the author’s writing is fun, and the story rates five stars. Highly
recommended.
