Fourth in a series. <\/p>\n

This has a lot of the good stuff of the previous three books, as well as widening the list of characters I cared about, filling in some of the folks who were broader strokes in books past (Shamus in particular).

And a freakalicious ending that is NOT going to keep me patient until the next one comes out in November (YAY SO SOON!).<\/p>\n
Allie and Zayvion continue to have a sexy yet more than that relationship. The imagery describing Zayvion in a certain fight at a certain point in this book…is just so so cool. And I do dearly love Stone. (FYI you can knit your own Stone<\/a> should you wish to.
