It’s time for one Mary Sue to hand the torch to another Mary Sue.

It’s cruel how the author pushes me out, reels me back in, and repeat that dance so often, and I am helpless to resist.

If you’re not one of those “I NEED CURRAN/MAD ROGAN INSIDE ME NOW!” people, you may find this one to be on the flaccid side.

This one reminds me of why I enjoy this author’s style so much. Action, gun-fu with werewolves, and Martha Stewart kicking ass.

Bye, Kate! Enjoy starring in the new Lora Leigh novel with that boyfriend of yours. Oh, and Curran, sod off and die.

Remember when the author wrote kick-ass urban fantasy instead of werewolf soap opera? This is a throwback to that lost era.

Whom do I have to sacrifice chickens to, to turn this into an urban fantasy and not an icky romance?

I only feel a little spark of excitement within the last few pages of this book. On the bright side, it’s 75% Curran-free!

If you ever wondered what it’d be like if Kate Daniels and Curran the Pig-Wolf are X-Men, here you go. Enjoy.
