Irene L H. (NonExistence) - reviewed on 8/8/2009 + 239 more book reviews

Not at all your typical romance, in fact, there was hardly any romance in this book. The book was instead a situational
paranormal mystery. I think some paranormal romance authors seem to be in a rut (Immortal warriors and vampires)
but this one was just different enough to be interesting. There's a harder edge to this book than to Ms. Caine's Warden
or Morganville novels. That does not make it less of a story, it simply demonstrates her versatility. The plot builds slowly,
hooking you on the intrigue and drawing you in until you find, like Jazz does, that there's no going back. You have
to see how it ends. When it does, once again, Ms. Caine proves she's a master of the cliffhanger. ****

Though the investigation is convoluted and starts relatively late, readers who appreciate strong female action
heroines will want to read DEVIL'S BARGAIN. The testosterone flows on every page in which either Lucia or Jazz appear
starting from the beginning the latter kicks butt in a bar and never lessons until the final kick butt climax even when
Jazz and James make love. Fans of strong women starring in a wild investigative thriller will enjoy this dynamic tale......
