Story
Grateful Knight isn’t looking for love when she moves into a rent-free house on the edge of a graveyard. At 22, all she wants is to recover financially so she can move back to the city where she belongs. But sparks fly when the gorgeous cemetery caretaker, Rick, introduces himself and mentions his suspicion that her new house might be haunted. Her attraction to him seems supernatural, and despite her resolve to not get involved, she literally can’t keep her hands off him.

Finn Wager's luck has run out. Arrested for the one crime he didn't actually commit, he's forced to finish his education at an alternative school. The Revelations Institute is an upscale, private reform school with a 100 percent success rate. Delinquents go in and model citizens come out. But students who don't perform to expectations disappear. And although their bodies return model citizens, their minds are hardly their own. Something evil lurks inside Revelations, and if Finn and his new friend Hope can't find a way to stop it, they'll risk more than their lives.

Grier Woolworth spends her nights weaving spooky tales of lost souls and tragedies for tourists on the streets of downtown Savannah. Hoop skirt and parasol aside, it's not a bad gig. The pay is crap, but the tips keep the lights on in her personal haunted mansion and her pantry stocked with ramen. Life is about as normal as it gets for an ex-necromancer hiding among humans - until the society that excommunicated Grier offers her a second chance at being more than ordinary. Too bad no one warned her the trouble with being extraordinary is it can get you killed.

They call me an abomination. A mutant. A curse on their kind. I don't let it bother me. Much. My name is Holly James, and what they say is true. I'm a freak of nature - a null. My mere presence saps the magic from others, rendering them powerless. That's why they hate me. But here's the kicker: I've found a way to profit from my lack of mojo. Whether it's acting as a mystical wet blanket in a dispute between pyromancers or keeping hormonal shifters from changing during a sweet 16 party, I provide a highly specialized service.

Summary
Commitment-phobic Grateful Knight has her hands full. While she struggles to understand her new role as Monk's Hill witch, evil isn't waiting for her to come up to speed. Not only is there an increase in supernatural activity in her ward, she’s being evicted from her home, breaking in a snarky new familiar, and trying to sort out her feelings for her metaphysically connected and immortal boyfriend, Rick. When Grateful foils a murder at a fae bordello, she uncovers a plot by a local vampire coven to obtain a secret weapon with the power to control both the living and the dead. History is threatening to repeat itself. And if Grateful doesn't give herself over to her role completely, it could cost her everything.

Good book
Story is interesting just wish I felt more for the characters. For me it just doesn’t quite hit the mark. There is a fair bit of soul searching but not to much Poe seems to offer the only light relief.

Another Great Story
The books just keep getting better and more interesting. The narration is phenomenal as u can distinguish each character even as they are brought into the storyline.
Poe is one of my favorite characters with his hilarious comments. He makes me laugh out loud.
There are so many ways these characters could go which means more books to come.

Clueless Lead Characters
This could be a really good series if the the two lead characters were more mature and actually talked out their problems. About 1/4 of the book is Grateful disagreeing with someone, mostly Rick. When they are not arguing, they are having sex. I get that their bond is based on sex, but it's not necessary to take up a large portion of the book describing each time they do it. I get it, they are really into each other. Also, you kinda figure out who the bad guys are early on and have to suffer through the story waiting for Grateful to get a clue. I read the first book and thought I would give this one a chance because the premise is actually interesting. But, I won't be reading the next one.

The plot thickens
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, I would recommend this audiobook to a friend. Book 2 in the Grateful Knight series is just as much of a page turner as Book 1. The plot thickens as Grateful and Rick's relationships gets more involved, while Grateful becomes more attuned to her magical powers. I couldn't put this book down. I love these characters.

Men are annoying and women aren't too smart???
I enjoyed this book for the most part, however, there were parts that just annoyed me..Logan, stop pining, she isn't even giving you mixed signals, you are clearly in the "friend zone". Hey Rick, she got angry because you were manipulative...so let's keep doing that. Hey Grateful, you agreed to a life altering decision with a proverbial gun to your head and you're cool with that? I enjoyed some of the new characters and additional backstory as well as Grateful's magical growth. Last thing, the whole house sale storyline was pure BS.

Love, love, love this series!
I listened to book 1 a few weeks ago and came back for book 2. I'll be onto book 3 soon. Grateful is learning more about her powers and building a data bank she can carry with her on her phone for all the spells. I think that modern day touch is cute.
As she's settling into being a witch she finds she's being evicted from the house. The one she abhorred at first but now loves. It's the place she has to be to send souls away. The story quickly builds and the plot thickens. She and Rick have problems, leaving her alone.She adores him, is connected to him on a level that exceeds the physical realm but she can't commit.
This series is quick paced and witty. I adore Grateful. I'm not so crazy about Rick. I liked her ghost beau better but now in a human body her feelings for him have settled and they're good friends. She finds many reasons to call him, some that simply cracked me up.
A fun series!
