[Eve1972]

This author is a guilty pleasure of mine. Her books are generally cheesy, and not particularly well written. But I love the characters, the settings, and how most of them are connected in some way. And what I really like is that they are usually 100% "safe." As in, the shifter meets his mate, and that is it for him. That said, this was probably my least favorite book by this author.





Why she had to go and mess with a good thing is a mystery to me. In this book (and I assume the series) shifters have to have sex with a person to know if they are mates. Great, except that Nick and Stuart are mates. They have worked together for two LONG years. Nick wants Stuart, but instead of manning up he sleeps with everything (man or woman) right in front of Stuart. And I mean...RIGHT in front of him. He brings all his dates back to the workplace to have sex. In fact, we get a scene with him and a woman in bed together. He can't get it up, so he sends her away, and Stuart runs into her --- lovely. What made it even worse was that Stuart is a virgin!

Of course, Nick gets his head out of his ass eventually. And Stuart just seems A-OK with the fact he had to watch Nick fuck around for two years. But ME, ya, I never got over the nasty that is Nick, and after reading every single book this author has written...I am now going to not bother with the rest of this series. Way to ruin a good thing, Miz Hagen!
