I really enjoyed this book from beginning to end. Moves quickly, so you dont get bored. The characters are likeable & you feel pulled into their story. The author kept the fight scenes and sex scenes long enough to excite, but short enough not to drag. Several unexpected twists in the plot. Im sad b/c it seems the story of Cass & Flynn is over, but looks as though Micheal makes an appearance in the next book.

This book is characterized as urban fantasy romance and that would be correct. It kept my interest once it got going but I was very close to shelving it until the character of Michael was introduced. It starts off promising, but the introduction of Flynn didn't intrigue me as much as Michael did.
There is a very interesting cast of characters and it's set in a world that mirrors ours but with a paranormal twist. I liked how the author made bad guys have redeeming characteristics and vice versa. Our heroine was hardly a saint herself. People need to be flawed and the author did a good job bringing that together. Cass couldn't save everyone and she didn't apologize for her methods of finding children and dispensing justice--despite the presence of a cop in her life.
The author introduced pets/familiars that the heroine had that I was initially turned off by but found myself really enjoying their place in the story. Being an animal lover myself I became as attached to those characters as I did the human ones.
It's a very good story that I enjoyed very much but I admit the blurb in the back of the book for the next installment didn't interest me enough to even bother finishing it. I sense that the story of Cass, Flynn, Abby, Michael and Dacardi is finished. I hope I'm wrong because I think those characters deserve more "air time."

It kept my interest. Interesting cast of characters. I would like a follow-up story on Michael. Flynn, the hero, needed more depth. Michael was more interesting. It seems like a stand alone book, but then who knows what is to follow.

I'm not generally a UF fan, but this book was really good. Cass finds lost and stolen children with the help of a cop, Flynn, a friend Michael, and a witch Abby. She also has two snakes and a cat that I couldn't help become very fond of. Lots of action and about 2/3s of the way in there were several very funny parts that made me actually laugh out loud. I'm hoping these characters will be in the next book.

It only held my interest because I was out of books. The book isn't offensive but not interesting either. Michael with his otherworldly beauty is a neat plot twist that I don't think the author explores enough because the heroine is to busy with mundane, human Flynn. I think Lee Roland must be a man because the book was all action and the characters get right to business during sex but somehow the woman has this incredible climax. I don't think I'll be moving on to any more of these.
