    <body><![CDATA[Very, very hard to review this book.  I gobbled up Karen Chance's Cassie Palmer series and am anxiously awaiting book four to be released in April 2009.  So I jumped on &quot;Midnight's Daughter&quot; which is an offshoot of that series.  Technically, this is a standalone novel.  But IMHO, you reall...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34544130">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Lately I've been dabbling in various paranormal/urban fantasy series, and I have to say that thus far Karen Chance is hands down my favorite author in the genre. <br/><br/>If you liked the Cassie Palmer series, then you more than likely would like this series as well. Also, I tend to agree with th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58765392">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I enjoyed this book, but I have to say, I like the Cassie Palmer books better. This series is a spin-off of the Cassie series, in that it features characters from Cassie’s stories, such as Mircea (rowr) and Louis-Cesare. Some minor characters appear, too, though briefly (I absolutely love the idea...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/41621005">more...</a>]]></body>
