This second books got more my attention at first sight than the first one, but I had some problems with the fact that being the second in a trilogy written by different authors, I felt like the author had the need to reintroduce facts multiple times when we already knew things clearly from the first one.

The Shifters is the second novel in the trilogy, this time focusing on the second oldest sister, Caitlyn MacDonald. Caitlyn is the Keeper of the shifters, and she has an obvious distrust of those she is sworn to protect. But she soon finds herself in a situation where, like or not, she must join forces with those she distrusts in order to save her city from bodiless entities who seek to destroy life. Unfortunately, time and time again, a true stubborn streak and the inability to ask for help

Honestly, I'm not sure why I'm reading this series. I knew in the last book that I wouldn't like Caitlin. But I thought with a different author writing Caitlin's book than who wrote Fiona's, maybe Caitlin would become a little more likable. Wrong. She's judgmental and opinionated. Which is a fine thing to be, but Cait takes it to extremes. She's downright rude to Jagger and Fiona, and she never apologizes. She doesn't listen to reason, and therefore puts her life at risk. And Ryder just

This second in the series was better than the first to me. I enjoyed the characters, although the women in both book one and book two definitely were not as "powerful" to me as a Keeper should be. They still need folks to rescue them it seems.
I still like the Keeper idea, and the writers (now two) are doing a wonderful job at writing in a way you can visualize New Orleans.
The only draw back I am still having with these books are the depth of the characters. B More...

Alexandra Sokoloff brilliantly takes the reins in the second installment to The Keepers Series with the introduction of “The Shifters”. Some authors might falter when asked to follow in the footsteps of paranormal powerhouse, Heather Graham, but Sokoloff, with her extraordinary background in all things ghoulish, was clearly up to the task. Thrumming with sexual tension and holding tightly to the emotional draw—apprehension, anxiety and uncertainty—of her characters and genre, Sokoloff hones in o

My first time reading a Harlequin Nocturne.It was ok. Had a hard time staying with it, but I did and finished it. This is the second book to a 3 book trilogy. I didn't read the first book because I got this one and the third book from a friend who doesn't have the first book anymore. Even though I didn't care for it too much, I would probaly read more Nocturnes in the future if something catches my attention.

excellent 2nd book of the trilogy! Couldn't put it down! Love the setting in New Orleans and it was amusing that I read the mention of Steve Tyler on the night that American Idol aired the auditions in New Orleans with Steven Tyler as a judge... very ironic. Ready to start on the the third book now.

The series is called The Keepers; each book deals with a specific sister and their particular "charges." This book was about the middle sister who is the protector of the shifters. It was just as good as the first one. No problems with the transition. Very good! Can't wait to read the final book.

The story had a good idea to it, but it all seemed a bit rushed, IMO. Hard to really get a grip on the characters and who they are, and whether they are important to you or not.

This book is as good as the first. Will now read the third in the series and decide which paranormal group is my favorite. Still leaning toward the sexy vampire though.

I loved Heather Graham's The Keepers, and I loved this book by Alexandra Sokoloff. The story immerses you into the supernatural world located in New Orleans, and doesn't let you go, even after you finish the book! I look forward to reading the final book in this trilogy, and to get and read more books by Alexandra Sokoloff.

Pretty standard paranormal romance. Decently written but not exceptional. Disappointing if you've read the author's previous books.
