Vann's Victory picks up shortly after the first book, with Vann and Kip, plus some of the Highgate wolves, flying out to Crossways to liberate the pack that the two men escaped.
Most of the book elaborates on Vann and Kip's relationship, their dynamics with each other, their fears for the future, and struggles with their freedom, as well as insights into their bond, and how it came to be.
The author spent some time revisiting (as part of the plot's progression) how Vann and Kip met, what they went through at Crossways, and how their relationship works with Kip assuming a submissive stance, and Vann being Dominant. For those not in the lifestyle, or those who don't know much about a true BDSM relationship, about power exchange, their bond might seem strange, but for me (even though I don't practice BDSM myself), it was very clear how much these two loved each other.
The main plot about liberating Crossways almost seemed too easy for my taste, especially with how much build-up there was in Vann's and Kip's minds.
The characterizations felt a little uneven at times, but overall this was a good sequel to the first book, and a promising installment to the series. It's shaping up to be a rather nice combination of M/M romance and action novels.
