From the author's blog: "Micah is called back home by his estranged family, because his father, a county sheriff, has been attacked and is terribly injured. Anita and Nathaniel are going with him for moral support and to meet his family under very trying circumstances."

Can I just say, HELL YEAH!! This plotline with meeting Micah's family is pretty much EXACTLY what I was hoping to see in a future Anita book. And here it is. Seriously, I could not be happier. (Unless the book were published tomor...more

I'm very much looking forward to meeting Micah's family. Nathaniel and Anita along for the ride as well. I couldnt be more excited! I'm hoping the dashing Jean Claude doesn't hurt too badly that he doesn't have family to take Anita too. But from what laurell wrote, Anita reassures Jean Claude that she loves him. Counting down the days! :D

I won't buy it, but Anita can be entertaining and the series has been getting better (from 0 stars to 3 stars) with the past couple of books. Here's to looking for less angst and pointless sex, and more plot.

Does anyone else think the series went downhill since all this romance/soft porn appeared? There used to be a greater plot line... now it just 50 page descriptions of how she gives a blow job and what moral implications that act hold for the entire world.......

lame money milking, thats what this book is going to be :/

I will no longer fool myself with hope for any LKH writings.
Dead series walking.
