Tatius vampire king of haven has summoned Kita and Nathanial to his little party. While there kita finds a decapitated body. Drained of blood. Who did it and why?
A fantastic read.  I loved the story and the characters apart from tatius.  Kita was my favourite character.  I loved the ending too.  5*.

Now this is a good book!

After finding Once Bitten in the meh waters, Twice Dead fixes all of those bad feelings that I had about the series in a spectacular fashion. Price finds her stride in this book. Kita is faced with so many different trials and tribulations that it’s hard to book this book down. Being a were isn’t easy, but being the first were/vampire crossbreed is doubly hard. Kita is unique in her world, and with that, comes with an entire laundry list of hurdles to jump. Throw in the fact that she’s literal in the middle of a were-vamp pissing match between her attached ex and vampire sire, and you have one hell of a story! The tension between these three characters is off the charts, and add some sizzle and spice to an already interesting story.

This series has definitely moved up higher on my TBR list for the book that is set to release next year. I just hope the pop and sizzle of this series only continues to grow more.

I really enjoyed reading these books! They were so fascinating, and I just devoured them! I loved the world, I loved the characters, I loved the mysteries, I loved the writing! These books were just fantastic reads!

I have a little story about the time that I was reading these books. The 15th was the day after Dobby's surgery, and we had some family over, including another dog, who Dobby had played with before. But this time, because of his stitches, he couldn't go up and down stairs, let alone move quickly. Which meant that I took him inside, but he still knew that they were there. So while I was trying to read these books, he was not happy and made that very clear. I ended up giving him a tooth cleaning bone to distract him, and then taking him out on the leash when that wasn't enough.

Still, Dobby couldn't be in situations for a couple of days where he could strain his stitches, which included being on a bed. Which I solved for my night with him by setting up shop on my pull out couch bed, which wouldn't involve any hights for Dobby. And it was there that I read these books! Ok, story time is done!

Anyways! We dove right into both the action and the world in this book! Kita running away from her home and being chased, as well as world of shifters and vampires, and other dimensions...just so fascinating to read!

These characters were so great to read about, too! They all had their problems, even if it didn't seem that way at first. There was a bit of romance, but there was also a lot of humour, and personal connections. So great to read!

The first books had a pretty fantastic mystery-Kita looking for the rogue that was exposing the supernatural. Then there was the vampire politics of the second book. Both books have so much going on, it was pretty non-stop, and I enjoyed how things worked out!

Yeah, these books were so freaking great, and I can't wait for the 3rd book!

I liked this book and disliked this book. The main characters could have used with some more depth to them. The story is in need of some work. Over all it felt rehashed and over done. However it did leave me interested enough to read the second book to see if it gets better.

I'm sorry. Book 1 was a DNF for me. As much as I love Ms. Price's other books, this series is not for me.

I love author Kalayna Price's ALEX CRAFT series so not sure how I missed her HAVEN series. The first book in the HAVEN series is entertaining, but TWICE DEAD is all-consuming. I read it start to finish in one sitting! There is just so much going on with the main characters... Kita and Nathaniel. Is it terrible to say that I want to see more of Nathaniel's brother, Tatius?! I cannot wait to read the next installation in the HAVEN series!

really liked it

This the second book featuring shifter Kita Nekai - newly turned Vampire .
A much, much, much better read than book one with better characterisation .

Newly undead shifter-turned-vampire Kita Nekai is coming to grips with the reality that her cat has not awakened since her change and she now has a liquid diet ....BLOOD !
Now the Vampire Council has insisted that she must appear before them - where she draws the attention of The Collector ...... an old Vampire who likes to collect the unusual .... KITA ??.
Whilst the Council meet a bored Kita decides to find a quiet seat and watch the Vampires around her ...BUT the other person on the seat , dressed as a mannequin , turns out to be dead ... and she happens to be one of triplets , owned by The Collector!!
Kita immediately becomes the center of attention , the last thing she or Nathaniel wanted , and must face questions regarding her possible involvement .
The vampire king of the city,Tatius takes advantage of the meeting, by making Kita his special companion.....but if she wants to get Nathaniel and herself out alive, she sucks up her usual sarcasm and independence, and lets herself be used.
Unfortunately more bodies start to be found and Nathaniel and Kita , with a little help from the apprentice witch and old flame , must find who the murderer is and what the intended outcome means for their future .

This was a much better book in this series which bodes well for more in the future .

Again, another book by this author that I enjoyed to read. I wish there were more in this series and look forward to reading more by her.

Another smashing hit by Price! Darker, edgier, and even more action packed than the first book, if you can believe it! The characters really shine through in this book and I devoured thier sorry in one sitting. This is an epic paranormal fantasy that will have readers unable to put this one down.
