Gute Fee, Böse Fee: Ein vampirisches Feenabenteuer
Ich bin eine gute Fee, Schrägstich Vampir, und wurde damit beauftragt ausgerechnet den Kriminalkommissar zu beschützen, der mein ganzes Nest auslöschen will.
So zumindest die Kurzversion.
Da ich ohne Flügel geboren wurde, hat mich der Hohe Rat von Neuseeland nie für die bequemen Jobs eingesetzt. Stattdessen muss ich mich mit den unteren Sprossen der Karriereleiter zufriedengeben, so dass ich mittlerweile einen Ruf als Mädchen für Alles weghabe.
Aber wenn ein toter Polizist (frag nicht!) mich um Hilfe bei der Aufklärung eines Mordes bittet, untersuche ich auf einmal ein Verbrechen paranormalen Ausmaßes. Eine Situation, die dadurch nicht besser wird, dass mir eines Morgens die lang-ersehnten Flügel wachsen – vampirischer Natur.
Jetzt will der Partner des toten Polizisten, dass wir uns zusammentun und gegen die Fledermäuse ermitteln, die mich verwandelt haben. Wenn ich nicht schon auf der Suche nach Gerechtigkeit sterbe, könnte ich in dem Moment mein Leben verlieren, in dem er meinen „Fledermaus-Papi“ pfählt.
Ich bin voll dafür, Verbrechen aufzuklären … nur nicht auf meine Kosten. Aber wer weiß, was dieser Mann auf eigene Faust alles anstellen wird, wenn ich ihm nicht helfe. Lieber das Übel, das ich schon kenne als eines Morgens mit einem Holzsplitter durchs Du-weißt-schon-was aufwachen.

Third of the way through and I quit. Here's why. . .
The characters are terrible. That"s it. The dead cop is useless, the other one selfish. The main character is spineless, the other characters are trivial. They are all horrible people that are meant to be angst ridden, but they are all so shallow that all you get is a scummy top. I did not enjoy a single bit of what I read because I did not care about anyone, not in the slightest. And it is a shame because the set up was very intriguing. This concept with characters with some depth, easy four stars. As is, not even close.

(FYI I tend to only review one book per series, unless I change my mind on a series, so want to change my scoring by more than 0.50 of a star. -- I tend not to read reviews until after I read a book, so I go in with an open mind.)
Interesting idea.
I liked that it was set in New Zealand, made a change.
I also liked that the MC was a 'fairy godmother'. It's not the first time I've read a book with one as the lead, but still nice to have more books that branch off from the typical supernaturals.
Some of the things that were irritating me about the book, turned out to be plot points that resolved, so I don't need to mention them. I thought it was bad world building etc.
First time read the author's work?: No -- Second try with this author, I preferred this book.
Will you be reading more?: Yes
Would you recommend?: Yes
------------
How I rate Stars: 5* = I loved (must read all I can find by the author)
4* = I really enjoyed (got to read all the series and try other books by the author).
3* = I enjoyed (I will continue to read the series)
or
3* = Good book just not my thing (I realised I don't like the genre or picked up a kids book to review in error.)
All of the above scores means I would recommend them!
-
2* = it was okay (I might give the next book in the series a try, to see if that was better IMHO.)
1* = Disliked
Note: adding these basic 'reviews' after finding out that some people see the stars differently than I do - hoping this clarifies how I feel about the book. :-)

I really enjoyed this book. It moved really well to start with. About halfway through it sort of slowed. Not so much slowing as changing directions not a smoothly as I would’ve liked. They should’ve been more subtle. I kept thinking I had skipped something. The MCs exboyfriend had been a real jerk then in one part at the end, all of a sudden he was being nice and they were counting him in on what was going on like they trusted him completely. I wouldn’t want him around, even if he was a cop, because I would think he just wanted the credit. It was sad that most of the characters were shady but it was still a great storyline and I really think this could be a number one series. The author reminds me of Kristen Painter, which is a great thing. I loved the story of the ghost of the cop at the beginning. Then how he disappeared after a short time of being dead. That’s an interesting spin. I wish she would’ve added something at the end about Seddon and him helping because that wasn’t really brought to a close well. He had too big a role in the story just to be random at the end. The whole thing with Monroe at the end really confused me. Can’t say more for fear of spoiling it. I like this series and hope it is continued.

A good read. I think lovers of the genre will be delighted
Let’s see …
A fun read with a good plot line. I’m not gonna say it was some fantastic piece of literature. I mean come on you know why you’re reading reviews at all … escape and the supernatural.
I read the excerpt and honestly it fit well. I’ve certainly never read a mix of fairy godmother with a dash of vampire. I found the mix sort of interesting. I’m not entirely sure it works so well but this book didn’t really seem to flesh out what that means for her as far as powers and such. I mean she didn’t seem very vimpirey to me after all she woulda been fast enough to stop some things that went on.
Overall, the book is entertaining and with a fresh vampire/fairy godmother mix I’ve not seen done before.

Decidedly different
Korea has always wanted to be a godmother, but without wings, she's been relegated to working other departments, most recently, stationery. Frustrated with her inability to achieve her dream without wings, she becomes an investigator, helping people that way. Her current client is a dead police officer who was killed while investigating the murder of a young woman who seems to have had her fairy bonding mark curt from her flesh.
This was a an interesting, type of urban fantasy, with mystery, crime against the main character, and great interaction among the various supernatural groups. It's a great read.

A unique urban fantasy twist
With a vampiric, private investigator who is also a somewhat naive, fairy godmother, what could possibly go wrong? The story is somewhat jumbled at times which can make it hard to follow but for someone wanting a light hearted urban fantasy, this is an easy read. For me, the characters didn't stand out but most reviewers like the book a lot so give it a try.

4.5 stars
This was such a fun, quick read, honestly, what a great story. I don't think I have ever read an adult story where the FMC was a fairy godmother, that was such a unique premise! I loved the whimsy mixed with the personal detective aspect and how realistic the sibling dynamic was. The Government corruption made so much sense too, really plausible for this to have been set in reality.
Loved it.

Loved it!
I absolutely loved this book. I had never read this author before and the book popped up on my “you might like” feed. The editing is top notch. I did not come across one mistake. I laughed out loud so many times. While I’m waiting for book two I am going to check out other books written by Ms Mason.

Chaotic. DNF 39%
I gave this a good go but it's so badly written I just couldn't carry on. It's an absolute mess. Jumps from one thing to another without much rhyme or reason and is almost painful to read. Anyone who writes like they want their story to be on the big screen, should stick to scripts.

That was fairy surprising
A funny book and with twists I never expected. I love how snarky Keira is at times esp when faced with the unknown. And the fact her and her twin sister have twin familiars was adorable.
I never would've expected this to unfold the way it did and I can't wait to see what's next

Fun mix in the main character
This is the first vampire fairy story I remember hearing about or reading and I really enjoyed it. I also liked the familiars. There was a lot of action and fun back story for the characters to work through in the storyline. I recommend it.

Seemed slow to start.
But then it began to pick up the pace.
Who would have thought a fairy godmother/witch, would end up a fairy godmother/witch/vampire 😮😮😮
Or who would uncover something dastardly going on with fairy godmother's!

Enjoyable
Enjoyable and thoughtful along with plenty of fun. Awaiting the next outcome is a combination that you are feeling. This is the interaction between the characters and you.

Good first thing
This was different in that it's about a fairy without wings working as a PI and turned into a vampire. The plot and subplots move quickly, although it was a little confusing at times. The characters are well developed and likeable. I can't wait for the next book!

Nice easy read
Interesting concept and nice pacing.
Quite an enjoyable read for those boring hours we all find ourselves in. I’ve not obsessed over it but I was happy enough to read it and interested enough in the characters to look to read more.

Good read
I enjoyed the book. I liked the story. The characters were interesting. It started a little slow, l wasn't sure where it was going but i liked it enough/ it interested me enough to see where it would go. I do want to see what happens to Kiera and Karly next.

Lots of betrayal and death. Not my style. The relationships were all distorted. It was zany or light hearted. Didn’t work for me.

Okay
Fairly well written. Plot is rather simplistic. Action moves along fairly well. I will give the next one a try.
