Publisher's summary

In the darkness, demons come out to play... and someone must bring their sins to light. Part vampire, part werewolf, Riley Jensen knows what can happen when vamps don't play well with others. But she's never seen anything like this: a series of brutal murders surrounding the latest hot spot for vampire-human hookups---and the victims aren't just killed, they're beheaded. Now Riley is launching into action, toying with a seductive---and highly suspicious---club owner, and finding herself in the middle of another mystery: women being killed one by one without a trace of violence. For Riley, solving multiple cases---in a world going mad with human and vampire passions---would have been tough enough. Instead, she has two jealous lovers on her hands: Kye Murphy, the amber-eyed werewolf who makes Riley's wolf blood howl---and Quinn, the cool, elegant vamp who has over a thousand years' experience at fulfilling women's desires. While she's busy juggling these two sexy beasts, Riley's detective work takes a stunningly violent turn. Finding a murderer is now a matter of life and death. Especially since the killer has long since found her...

One of her best!!

I have to say this has to be one of the best in the series. It has me laughing and in the end crying (my kids didn't know what to think). I can't wait for the final book to come to Audible!

This one has lots of hot and heavy sexy situations, twits and turns and a great ending....if you have read ANY in this series you will want to get this one too!

#sobbing

I love the Riley Jensen books and the extraordinary way that Keri Arthur writes. And I love the way that Angela Dawe captures Riley’s quirky attitude with her narration. The amount of emotion that this book just provoked is insane. I’m dying and I love it.

Can't go on

I am not one for quitting a series especially after so many books in but I have picked up and put down this series so many times that I just CAN NOT! I can't keep listening to her getting physically raped, mentally raped, emotionally raped and never addressing it. Wolf or no wolf.

I think I have been very generous along the way and have forgiven quite a bit---the gratuitous love scenes at the most inopportune times that does NOTHING to further the plot, the referring to private parts as "bits", the super-magical medicine that can do everything from grant you super-telepathy to turn you into anything you need to be to survive. But I kept reading because I thought this would be the book that she finally gets what she has always wanted...her HEA. But noooooooo! She turns that down instantly. And instead runs back to a man (vampire) who mentally raped her a few books back and took away her free will. How she could ever trust Quinn enough to relax enough to allow an orgasm after that ultimate betrayal is beyond me.

I am done. I don't even care how it ends at this point. I don't think I have ever been this close to the end of ANYTHING and quit like this. It's tantamount to running a marathon, getting to the finish line ribbon and instead of running through just walking off to the side & taking off your number. If that gives you any indication of exactly how done I am. Take my advice and stop at book 1. Oh this author will try to hook you with her pseudo-cliff-hangers but ultimately its not worth it!!

What i didn't like.

i hate that as you get more fimilar with the characters and the auther builds her up. You discover that Riley very powerful, cunning and has great instincts. Then you get to a story line that makes her weak and ignorant. This makes the readers/followers very aggravated and they won't continue to follow your stories.
