tales_of_a_bookbug's review against another edition

Woah!I didn't think I could love K.F.Breene anymore than I already do, but this book has me falling for her writing all over again!
The Warrior Chronicles is among one of the top fantasy series that I love, and I was so sad when it ended!But I think this new series more than makes up for it!
Reagan is different from Shanti, but she is still kickass,snarky and awesome!That's my favorite part about K.F.Breene's heroines.They never disappoint me!
Reagan is a bounty hunter, but it doesn't bring in a lot of cash.But still she likes what she does.
Her latest mark ends up causing a lot of problems for her, and she loses him to the vampires.
To her surprise when she comes into her office, she has an offer from the vampires since they've got a job for her.And there's no way she can refuse it either!
So she is paired up with an elder vampire named Darius,who gets on her nerves and under her skin at the same time!And now these two have a big problem to solve!
But, Reagan also has a lot of secrets to hide concerning her powers and heritage, and she will have to be super careful about things!
I loved Reagan as she was a total hoot!Her inner thoughts and sarcastic quips had me laughing so many times!She is so feisty and strong as well!And the attraction between her and Darius was well developed!It kinda starts off as mutual dislike but then moves into a better place, and it was done in such a way that it was completely believable!Callie and Dizzy were great additional characters, and I loved learning about Reagan and her powers.The mystery and the secrets had me on the edge of my seat the whole time!The last few chapters were fast-paced,action packed and filled with twists!
And though the situations and things may seem to echo Ilona Andrews' series, I think this book is quite original on its own,since the world-building and characters are different.The characterization of the vampires was done well and I was glad to see that we were shown their ugly side too,unlike other fantasy books!Vampires can't always be appealing!
This was a great start to a new UF series and I'll be eagerly counting down the days till I can get my hands on the next one!I hope it comes out soon!

This was a solid start for a series, I admit I only started reading it because it was tagged as funny. Reagan is a particularly powerful bounty hunter, and she is not amused when she is forced to work with a vampire while tracking a mage. She struggles with keeping her true powers a secret as her bloodline is quite something.

First experience with K.F. Breene
Love the wit and humor in the MC Reagen. She’s hilarious. I’m happy with how this book ended but left enough intrigue for me to be interested in future books.

I tried to get through this book but it was a lot of nothing going nowhere.

I’ve been thinking about it all day if I liked this book or not. I felt very bored through most of it and just kept waiting for it to get better. Which is definitely not the way to get through a book. I’ve read multiple series by this author but this one just felt very different from the others. I think I went in expecting more of a romance aspect and it was very little and very small scenes that weren’t enough to satisfy me.
I did enjoy the plot as the story went on and am interested in continuing on eventually. I don’t know if I will right now.
I like Reagan and how strong and powerful she was and don’t let anyone walk all over her. I did find it annoying how long it kept you guessing with what she was though. Darius has potential to be good Hero that I could enjoy reading more about but I also felt something lacking from him in this story to fully enjoy it.
I’m not sure if my rating is 3-4 stars so I will keep it at 4 until I finish the rest of the books.

I didn’t follow the world building (maybe it was set up in another series…) and didn’t find the characters likable or compelling.
