This is an action novel with sexual tension everywhere. It was an excellent read despite or maybe because of the ever present sexual activities and constant flirting with paranormal creatures. I would be very careful when recommending this book. ( )

I've read other books by Carolyn Jewel, and I've been eying these Crimson City books for some time. So I was optimistic about this particular novel. I have to admit, though, that I just couldn't get into it. I didn't really connect with the characters, and my attention didn't want to stay with what I was reading. Which is unfortunate because there is some good writing here -- creative and colorful with a nice edge to it. I plan to give this one another go someday and may up my rating. For the meantime, though, let's say "like it, don't love it" and call it good. ( )
