For the plot, I liked it, it was tense and kept my attention. I liked how they developed the relationship between her and Emory, how they learn to deal with each other and how, again, accepting they both are of each other and their boundaried. He clearly moved faster then her, but was very conscious to give her space and to let her decide for herself what she wants instead of pressuring or trying to get her to move faster, which is a treat to read in Urban Fantasy.
I'm not sure if I'm the biggest fan of how Ms. Harris writes action scenes or big final battles, just cause I think that the ending sometimes seems a little underwhelming (more in the sense of it's not very huge firework-y in the end) but again, it seems a bit more realistic that way and also goes with Jinx's personality so maybe that's intentional. I think maybe that's something a publisher would push and try to put emphasis on for traditional publishing, since that is the "normal" way for books (big, showy endings) and while all of Harris' books have a big final showdown they don't seem as dramatic as most traditionally published books. I'm still deciding if I find that a pro for these books or not, but it's something I guess.
Highly recommend, all of the books in the series have been really good and hold up well, which is a testament to Heather Harris talent.
