I am a big fan of Dakota and the Magical Graffiti was awesome.
But her dating and sleeping with Calaphase made no sense. Phil and her had no big fight, and they didn't even really break up. They were simply dealing with the pains of a long distance relationship. Plus Dakota had major issues with Vampire's as lover's. It's way she ended things with Saffron. So why would she go running into the arms and bed of Cal? And killing him off was way to easy, she should have had to deal with the fallout of that rushed relationship.
Her mentor's new apprentice tried to kill her, yet Dakota not Arturus took any real action. WTF?
The whole storyline with child services taking Cinnamon was a big stretch. If they had an issue, or really cared they never would have let her leave to hospital when she was six. And with spread resources and a lack of good home's they certainly wouldn't have just shown up to take Cinnamon away. Especially since Dakota was her legal guardian and in the process of a adoption. A social worker would have already visited their home multiple times and given their assessment, so the whole she was still living at the Werehouse thing was silly. Teenager's are had to place and even harder to find a permanent adoptive home for, and in this universe Were's are seen as second class citizens it made no sense that the system got that involved.
It was to much of the world against Dakota. It just started to get silly. If the DA had been the graffiti artist or somehow connected to him the conspiracy would have made more sense.
