The country's only celebrity werewolf, late-night radio host Kitty Norville prefers to be heard, not seen. But when she's invited to testify at a Senate hearing on behalf of supernaturals, her face gets plastered on national television. Kitty has been in hot water before, but jumping into the D.C. underworld brings a new set of problems - and a new set of friends and enemies, including the vampire mistress of the city; a super-hot Brazilian were-jaguar; and a paranoid, Bible-thumping senator who wants to expose Kitty as a monster. Kitty quickly learns that in this city of dirty politicians and backstabbing pundits, everyone's itching for a fight.

"Very Good"
I bought this because I like Marguerite Gavin's Narration on Kim Harrison's Hollows Series Books so much. Anyway, I have enjoyed the first two books in the series and plan to listen to the rest.
"Kitty Series"
I have been enjoying this series, although I think I enjoy "The Hallows Series" by Kim Harrison a bit more. Its definitely in the same vein, so if you have run out of Rachel books and are looking for something similar, this series may be it. I do wish it had a little more humor tied into the stories, but they are overall enjoyable.
"Good Paranormal story"
Good storyline,if you like sci-fi & parnormal stories this is a good series... Kitty goes from a scared little submissive wolf to a strong willed and very independant alpha wolf.
"Good premise, terrible reader"
Like the premise and the series so far... however, the reader is very distracting! If I continue this series, think I'll just get the book.
"Great characters!"
A whole new set of characters in Washington DC...and Kitty meets and greets them all! Lots of political and ethical controversy...takes animal testing to a whole new meaning. Kitty has to appear in DC for a congressional hearing...and trouble surrounds (as usual)her. Fast paced and fun!
"Just ok...."
This was an all right book, but I struggled to stick with it. By the end I was just ready for it to be over. I found myself looking in my library while listening to the ending to see what I could start next. Really nothing surprising or engaging and not much romance either.
I have a 40 minute commute each way and with out Audible, I'd go crazy! My fav genre is fantasy and I love a great series!
"The 2nd book is better.."
First book was ok, so I went for the 2nd. It was better than the 1st one. I'm glad I got it, but really wasn't inspired to get the 3rd. If I am in need of a book and don't have anything else, I would go for the 3rd one. Kitty was more likable in this book and I cared more about her and her story. Narration is still on the bland side, but still ok. Not a deal breaker.
"Another in a fantastic series"
Kitty is sassy, aggressive, and sexy.
Kitty can take a bad situation and turn it into a marketing miracle.

"Kitty plus DC equals trouble"
Gotta love it when the book is set in my hometown. And in this case the author seems to actually have visited DC. I am really come around to Kitty. Beyond the amusement of a werewolf named Kitty, her character seems fairly consistent and is entertaining to me.
This time Kitty has been summoned to DC to testify to Congress. After the events of the first book, more of the supernatural is out and Congress wants answers. DC of course has it's own supernatural underground... A senior vampire with tight control of the city, were's who work for embassy's and a much more tolerant collection of were's.
The supernatural backstory of this world continues to grow, in this case we are introduced to the concept of elves (and magic that works).
Kitty's big mouth continues to get her in trouble, and her overriding curiosity doesn't help either.
Fun read and I am looking forward to the next book.
I Love a great supernatural tale, a Love story, PNR, a Cool Mystery and Most Sci-Fi....if there are vampires, weres or witches in it, that's a plus! Basically I am a 40+ y/o young at heart woman rediscovering the wonderful world of books and am now addicted! Lol I LOVE AUDIBLE!!!!!
"Kitty has grown stronger! I'm proud!!!!!!!!!!!"
It was a great story and MG portrays it perfectly...
Kitty of course...she was kinda weak in book one...but she has grown sooooo much just in book 2....this is shaping up to be a great new series for me...I already downloaded 3-5!!! lol
I loved when Kitty saved Alette....she was brave, and so kind....Kitty is a great person!!!
I would have if i could have!! lol
I am so glad I gave this series a chance...now after book 2 I am sooooo hooked....and Marguerite Gavin as the narrator is just a plus!!!!!!!!!!! Highly recommend!!!!!
