Publisher's Summary

Evie Black and her demon imp partner, Cass, are two of the most fearsome supernatural bounty hunters on the West Coast. But when Evie’s beloved grandmother dies, her world shatters. After finding the bottom of a bottle of tequila, Evie breaks the one rule she knows better than to ignore: Never hook up with a werewolf. Especially when he’s the local alpha who, oh by the way, happens to be her gran’s sworn enemy. Yeah, complicated doesn’t even begin to cover what happens next. 

This is a full-length adult urban fantasy novel. Please be advised there is adult sexual content and language. You know how alpha werewolves get.

Fun to listen to, but easy to pause.

It was a fun story. Can't say I'd listen to the next installment. Just a bit too predictable.

Most Interesting World Concept C-

Most Interesting World Concept I read in a while. Brave and Loyal band of friends Evie and her imp partner gather around them. It could be me...but the sex and profanity seemed a little top heavy. it could have been done a more southern tipsy then stripper tawdry. That may of had me routing for the character sooner. #uniqueworldsetting #Shifters #UrbanFantasy

Ehh....don’t listen to this

So the idea was a decent one. The issue is the story. Half of the time she talks about the wolf she is in love with but denies, another good chunk is sex scenes, the little sliver left is the story. The author does t develop a plot not really write a story but more of a sex fantasy book. Sounds like a teenager who is sexually stimulated but unable to do anything about it wrote the book. If you don’t believe me give it a listen...

The reader did a good job though.

Boring and flat

Nothing special, a boring story without a spark. There is no heat, no drama, no significant character development, it’s all superficial and forgettable. As I read the reviews of other books written by Leia Stone, I find that they are all the same, and I will never read a book written by this author again.

Disappointing

Decent storyline and character development with that being said eve is the only one getting a climax out of this book. No climax no real conclusion, the book simply ended.

Almost a 5.

A fun listen. A somewhat different and interesting take on magic and supernatural creatures. There's a kitsune in the Wearing the Cape series who is really cool, but a love interest to the heroine. Here the heroine finds out she is herself a kitsune. Not quite a 5 because I have mixed feelings about the femporn bits, but I am definitely getting the sequel. The cliffhanger caused me a cry of anguish.

Terrible reader!

The story was entertaining and kept me wanting to find out what came next, but the reader almost caused me to trash this. There were no tonal inflexions had a period at the end of every breath. Just terrible!

Too much too fast

I like the characters. I like their dialog. BUT there are some things that developed too fast for the sake of narrative. At least it was too fast for my taste. But over all a fun book to read.

Respect and honesty

*teeny tiny spoiler* It’s so nice to read a book where the couple is respectful of each other. I enjoyed the other characters that got brought in along the way. There was just enough backstory so you’d know a little about them, but not so much that the book branched into a different direction.

decent

this story was engaging enough and the reader was pleasant to listen to, but there was a lot of unnecessary cussing so if that bothers you steer clear.

Nice enough but feels unfinished

obviously the first book so it has a lot of worldbuilding to do. end feels more like a chapter end.
Also it basikly dedicates 2 chapters to sex senes

Way too much swearing

I usually enjoy this type of story but I didn't really get past the first few chapters as for every other paragraph, there was some sort of swearing or bad language which made it really hard to enjoy.

Fun PNR

Unique and fun PNR. I loved Cas, and the whole dynamic they have. Super excited for book 2

Love love love

I didn’t think I would enjoy a book with a funny look pink creature on it, but I could risk missing out on this because everything leia stone touches is gold. This was no difference! I can’t wait to devour the next one

Great set up looking forward you next one.

Loving Brock and Evie and Cass fun characters with plenty of attitude.
Enjoyed the story it starts off faster than expected lol. (Don’t have kids in the room) and I like the progression and discoveries that are made, feel like this book set everything up and I’m looking forward to next book and seeing the story and characters develop from here.
I did feel the narrator spoke a bit fast and found myself having to rewind bits, but that’s partially due to me listening while I’m cooking and things to. xxxx

Easy to Follow

I enjoyed listening to this urban fantasy tale. A respite from my usual genre of choice. I like that this story feels more adult compared to Fantasy that I used to read.
Both main characters have strong personality and the clash was inevitable, but so was them ending up together, despite the challenges.
It's a fun read. Strong dose of profanity and steamy content. But it is fun!
Kate Marcin did great with her narration on this one.

Brilliant

This book is so beautifully crafted taking you to another world. It has a super sassy heroine, wonderfully sexy shifters and Cass is just brilliant! The amazing narration brings another dimension to this book making it thoroughly entertaining but, what a cliff hanger, definitely leaves you wanting more.

Loved it!

This story drew me from the very beginning! Just the right amount of adventure, romance, mystery and of course snark!!!

Magic Bits

This is a funny look at supernatural discovery, and emerging powers. I giggled through this book, with its twists and turns. Read with great feeling by Kate Marcin.
