This book is very slow going...so much conflict that I could barely finish it. Read this when you are in a happy mood, it can be a real downer. Glad it was borrowed from the library.

I really liked it, although the ending was a bit rushed, it's still a good read.

I was so into this book and then the end just RUINED IT!! The characters were so fun and relatable so the element of surprise was not a good one. I hate to spoil it for any other readers, so I will not give details.

This book was a treat! I've been a fan of Feehan's "Dark" series and this book gives readers a chance to catch up with all the characters. The recipes are not half bad either!

I loved this book. Lots of twists and turns. I don't want to spoil it for others so I'm not giving any details other than to say characters from her Demonica series make an appearance.

Rodrigo was emotionally unstable...how these characters ended up together is beyond me. I've always been lukewarm towards Ms. Palmer's books, this one was just awful. I picked up at the library and FORCE myself to finish it. Kilhaven was a nicer man and someone I wouldn't mind learning more about.

I gave up after chapter three and usually I try to give books a good old try. I kept waiting for these characters to connect. I wasn't inspired to care or to invest my time further. I was very glad I borrowed the book from the library.

I've loved all of the books on this series, but this one of my favorites by far. Ian and Kyra are very strong and well suited for each other. Characters from other books are featured and there's obvious friendship and brotherhood between the team member's. A good read!

It was fun to read about Nonna and her Australian football "tushie" loving friends again and to meet Chloe's parents who are a hoot. Eli and Chloe on the other hand didn't work for me. I am again glad to have borrowed the book from the library. When Noah's book comes about in 2012...I'm library bound just to read about Nonna.

Thus far my favorite in the series. Drake's story does not disappoint, I wish the author would've given more details on his recovery since it was such his injury made him unique. I really good read if you like Christine Feehan.

An alright book. I wanted to shake both Rafe and Brooke's mother at times, particularly when they have the big "showdown". Thankfully I borrowed it from the library, no buyer's remorse here.

I had to skip some parts this book in order to finish it. We find out that the "big surprise" from the previous book, was a non issue after all...Anyway, back to this one...I wanted the main character to get help for her semi-alcoholism and I didn't get it...she just simply moved on and ended up with the nice guy... I'm really sorry I bought this book.

Really good story line. This is the first book in a while that I've read in this series and I have to say it was worth it. I would've liked not to dwell so much on Lucy's side story, but the main plot with the serial killer was great and fast paced.
