While this installment didn't hit me as hard emotionally, it was certainly a page turner. I'm loving Jane more with every book. The plot was intriguing, I'm enjoying how the world is continuing to expand and I'm just having a good time being in this world.

A solid 4.5 stars. I could have used more sexy-times. ;) But the story launched right away and kept going at breakneck speed so I didn't want to put it down. This series is a pretty dense read... lots of little font on the page as well as a lot of description, so the fact that I finished in two days means a lot of read-time.

Wow, this book was intense with lots of intrigue and scary supernatural stuff going on around Jane. She has left New Orleans for North Carolina to help out Rick (one of my least favorite characters). Soon after she is recruited as security for a vampire parlay and gets drawn into a search for two murdering werewolves. Things spiral out from there and Jane is running from one disaster to another trying to keep those she has been hired to and those she cares about safe.

As usual she is amazing, unfortunately she decides to blame herself for everything which is so ridiculous. Some events did probably lead from things she was involved in, but honestly she did not do anything directly wrong.
Noooo Jane, it isn't! You cannot control all the crazy supes who want to kill people, they do have free will.

But still, she and Beast always takes care of business, hers or no.


My other issue is that Jane's interpersonal relationships are often painful to watch. Though my favorite is Angie, her friend's little girl, who is already a powerful witch. Her parents just need to realize blaming others is not exactly a great virtue.

Jane is cool, she really needs to meet some new people! Especially new love interests!! Onto the next.

Favorite Line: "If you can't be quiet, we'll ask you to leave. We have enough problems with the baby talk and the demon shrieking"

This one was so good, I think I might have to do a re-read of the entire series all at once. AND they included a sample of Bloodring at the end (Kindle version), which, IMO, is another great series that I wish would continue.

Go Faith!

i'm a jane yellowrock fan and i didn't like this one as much. jane has a lot to deal with in this book. she spent a lot of time thinking about it, but not really dealing with anything. a lot of adventure. she does discover that she likes what she does in the end. an adult book
