Ooooo weeee… ok SJM, I’m signed on.
I think the first Crescent City book was better as far as clarity, plot points, and intensity, but this book was good too. I think this book relied on smut to keep readers attention at slow points in the story instead of actually moving the plot along. Other than that, this book develops secondary characters fantastically. It also has a few twists, and a really big surprise at the end! No spoilers but I’m waiting for the next one!!
