This is a unique and creative romance. I can't wait to read the second in the series.

The first thing you need to know about Ferocious is that it is set in the same world as The Maura's Men series by the same author. I personally struggled a little in the beginning to figure out what was going on. I felt like there was a book I should have read first.

That being said, once the world started to take shape in my head the story was much easier to follow and it turned into a fabulous romance mystery.
There is whole paranormal and sci-fi world hidden in plain sight from humans and somehow Aura girls are going missing on earth. But how? PI Farrah and Security Officer Donovan are put in charge of figuring that out.
Farrah, like many other Auras lives in the human world. Donovan lives within the safety of Ceres. They are both head strong and pretty much set in their ways. SO needless to say they are not happy to have to work together. It doesn't take long however from them to at least try to put their differences aside in order to find the missing girl.
The tension between the main characters is there from beginning to end and their chemistry is spot on.

All in all it was a great steamy paranormal mystery romance.

Spicy urban fantasy with a diverse cast. The world building was a little confusing for me at first and there’s apparently a set of books before this one so maybe if I read those it would’ve helped me visualize better however once we get into the actual case of the missing teen I found it entertaining. It’s a world where Aura are sectioned off from the human world however there’s something or someone kidnapping young Aura girls. (Aura=they feed/give off energy including mind manipulation)

 I loved the friendship between Farrah and her girlfriends and I always appreciate an instalust. I look forward to reading the next one. Farrah and Donovan bump heads but of course that’s basically like foreplay for them. 

This one had been on my kindle for a while and now I’m disappointed for not reading it sooner. I imagine if you like Ilona Andrews but want some heat and more diversity this may be for you.
