Madly and the Jackal by M. Leighton

Goodreads Summary:

How deep does love run? Deeper than the ocean? Deeper than memory? Deeper than magic?


Following their plan to save Atlas, Madly and Jackson return the spirit of Wolfhardt to his prison beneath the sea. But even the best laid plans couldn’t account for the surprises they find. This time, Lore aren’t their only challenges. 


Madly is special in ways no one could have guessed and dark forces seek to control her. They want her power, but first they must weaken her. They need her beaten. Vulnerable. Near death. And alone. But that task isn’t an easy one with Jackson at her side. The strongest of their kind, the only way to separate Jackson from Madly is to destroy his love for her, to erase it from his mind. And his heart. 


Is it possible to steal Jackson’s love from Madly? Or is their love the only truly unbreakable thing?


My Review:
This book blew my mind! Seriously I read it in less then 24 hours. I could not put it down. This book is a little more racy then book one and I am 100% ok with that! Madly's world is turned upside down as soon as they get to Atlas and realize how bad things are there for her family and her people. Madly has a strong sense of duty to protect them and do whatever she can for them. She is also very much in love! Jackson gives her incredible strength. Madly is so strong and it is that inner strength that she so desperately needed in this book.


Madly and the Jackal was a whirlwind of emotions. Madly and Jackson's relationship is so amazing! I went from super happy, to angry, to I want to punch something, then back to happy. It was crazy. I had to keep reading because I HAD to know what was going to happen. There were so many twists and turns that I was absolutely enthralled! Jersey was her typical blunt self and I loved every minute of it! She is the perfect best friend. She plays a crucial role in finding the descendant of Jackal and Hyde. 


This story opened up a lot of new questions about what was going to happen with the Lore. It is a much bigger plot then I could have ever imagined. I am excited to see what happens next!! It promises to be very interesting. I love Jackson and Madly together and I hope it continues to be that way! They are perfect for each other! I have become very attached to these characters and want the best for them haha! Bring on the next book!!!!!! If you haven't read this series yet then you must!!
