Review:
I hoped for more, sadly this book didn't deliver for me. Sydney was suppose to be a bad ass detective, a fact we where told over and over again but to me it seemed more talk than her actually showing that she was a bad ass.
Some things where weird as well. Sydney said she didn't like working with CPAP, that she didn't trust paranormals. But she had no issue sleeping with one of them and visiting their (sex) club regularly to hook up with a wolf shifter. She also stated a couple of times she didn't know much about the paranormals but refuses to work with CPAP to solve the crime. She also had the tendency to run away or run into something without thinking. When people warned her about the strength of the vampires and stuff and that she could get hurt she got offended, ran in, and got hurt. Like it doesn't make you less strong if you think first. And it's not an insult if someone warns you or tries to look out for you. Vampires ( and other paranormal ) are after all stronger than humans.
Kade didn't do much for me either. I didn't feel the chemistry between Kade and Sydney.
Their sex scenes weren't that great either. They talked about kink allot, she went to a sex club before to hook up with a wolf shiftier, she went with the vampires to a bdsm club wearing leather, fishnets, and a see through top (no bra) but all they said during sex was make love to me. Not fuck me or anything like that. It just didn't work for me sadly.
What is this book about:
This book is about detective Sydney. When bodies start to show up in doll like states, she knows the culprit isn't human. However when CPAP investigator Kade show up she is immediately distrustful thowards him. But the deeper she gets into the case the more she realizes that she needs him to solve the case.
What did I like/love:
Some of the side characters where fun. The idea
What did I dislike/hate:
I summed it up pretty well above I think.
Rating:
2 disappointing stars
