Trying to Find a Kidnap Victim
It’s 1939, and Nate Ross’s latest client is Audrey Chase, one of the biggest movie stars. Her sister has been kidnapped, and the ransom demand is small. Audrey paid it, but her sister wasn’t returned as promised, and now she wants Nate to find her sister and return her safely. Given that this is Hollywood, Nate is wondering if this is more of a publicity stunt than a real crime, but the pay is good, so he takes the case. He quickly finds that, if he gets it wrong, this case will have deadly consequences. Can he figure out what is really going on?


This is another fun book in a series I always enjoy. It hues close to my impression of PI novels from the 1930’s. Nate and the few series regulars are fun, and the new characters did a good job of keeping me engaged. The plot included plenty of surprises, and I could not wait to get to the logical climax. While not focused on the studios of the era, I still felt like I was back in 1930’s Los Angeles. Now comes the wait for Nate’s next case.

FANGS & FREAKS is the first book in the Shifters of Myth and Legends series and features Bloody Mary. Bellonna was wrongly accused of being a witch by her so-called best friend, pressed and burnt. At the last moment, she calls on Lilith to help and spends the next three hundred or so years becoming Bloody Mary.

Varys is a unicorn who was kidnapped. Blackwell is the psycho boy, and Warrick is his brother and president of the MC. These four cause chaos and wreak mayhem on pretty much every page and I am here for it.

It is a dark read with TWs, so take note! It is fast-paced and with plenty of bl00d and s3x, although only one scene with the four of them together. Although not a traditional one, our guys do get a HEA.

This was a great read that I definitely recommend and I look forward to reading more in this series.
