I'm hooked on this series. Cat is a great protagonist, kicks some serious undead butt and has a snarky, fun sense of humor and major parental issues to make things interesting , curses like a longshoreman and drinks gin like it was water. Her vampire beau Bones is....well, Bones is MINE! Hands off. I also like her new FBI colleagues. A nice bunch of tough, likeable characters with great banter among them like a good ensemble TV show.
The love scenes were hot, but a little over-the top this time. ...more

I saw this on the shelf in my library, and the author's name caught my eye and I was like, oh those books. I'd heard of this series before but had dismissed them as eh, not my thing. I skimmed the back cover description and went eh (again) and didn't think much of it. But because it had paranormal romance on the spine, I decided to give it a spin and boy am I ever glad I did! I wasn't even 200 pages into it, and I said to myself, this is going to be a favorite, and I was not disappointed by the

3.5 stars - I liked this book more than the first of the series. I thought the characters were developed a little bit more this time around.

She still has daddy issues and longs for the time she can meet him and stake him.
Honestly through the book I was thinking this was rather good book but not necessarily a 5 Cup of C ...more
Better than book 1, definitely. I loved the team and all the supporting characters, I loved Bones' fights with Cat's mother, I loved the ending, it made me all teary-eyed. Yet, I would've done without the chapter-long sex - I know this is adult urban fantasy, but that was a bit too much and in my opinion, it stalled the plot - and the showdown between Cat and Ian was way too convoluted, the way they tried to one-up each other. Still, the book read amazingly well, it was fast-paced and I just rea

I don't know why I waited so long to continue reading this series. I loved the first book and had intended to read the others right away. This book did not disappoint and I enjoyed the reader very much even though Bones doesn't sound quite right to me.

I laughed the whole time I read this! This was actually better than the first one, IMO!
