Master of the Opera, Act 2: Ghost Aria

By Jeffe Kennedy

In the second seductive installment of Jeffe Kennedy's thrilling Master of the Opera, a young woman falls deeper under the spell of the man who haunts her dreams, fuels her desire, and demands her surrender. . .

With each passing day of her internship at the Sante Fe Opera House, Christine Davis discovers something new, something exciting—and something frightening. Hidden in the twisting labyrinths beneath the theater is a mysterious man in a mask who, Christy's convinced, is as real as the rose he left on her desk—and as passionate as the kiss that burns on her lips. He tells her to call him "Master," and Christy can't deny him. But when her predecessor—a missing intern—is found dead, Christy wonders if she's playing with fire. . .

If her phantom lover is actually a killer, how can she continue to submit to his dark, erotic games? And if he is innocent, how can she resist—or refuse—when he demands nothing less than her body and soul?

Reviews for Master of the Opera, Act 2

[lisa.hines · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Master of the Opera, Act 2: Ghost Aria by Jeffe Kennedy is the second book in a set of six serialized novels. Is the Opera Ghost (AKA Master) real? or is he a figment of Cristy's imagination? It has been alluded to that she has mental issues in her past, possibly from a traumatic event. She is beginning to question the validity of the things she has seen. When she gets to spend some up close and personal time with the Master and he tells her...I'd prefer you to accept my ropes under other circumstancesthen, when she refuses to drink wine with him he also says...I'm not interested in using drugs to entice your submission, Christine.it is totally Smokin' HAWT.Roman's motives and personality are questioned by a couple of characters and the sudden turn from megabitch to happy chick is also suspicious.As this is the second book and the plot is still building not too much happened, but it's coming. I can feel it!
