So this is book two but more like book 1.5 because it just took a heck of a long time to go hardly anywhere. It picks up a short time after book one and our MCs are not anywhere close to together. They haven’t seen or spoken to each other in over a month despite working in the same building. And they have to be the dumbest supernaturals around.
First of all there is way too much navel gazing. And the same turf gets retreaded over and over. I wanted to reach into the book and smack them both. Patrick knows what’s going on but won’t say anything to anyone which makes him a total jerk. Ethan can’t figure out what his problem is which makes him pretty damn stupid. Any supernatural with even a passing knowledge of werewolves should know what’s going on. And then the old man who keeps calling Ethan will only talk in riddles. Ditto Ethan’s witch friends. I was so so very sick of no one just freaking saying what they were thinking.
So the book goes round and round in circles. We finally get a solution to case mystery, sort of. (I still don’t fully get it or what was up with the woman in the house.) And when there appears to be a resolution to the relationship part that seems to fizzle too as Ethan again acts like a jerk. And then it ends on a big question mark. I’m trying to decide if I care enough anymore to read the next book. I feel bad for Patrick, though a lot of this is his fault but I really don’t think I like Ethan, a man whose chief characteristics seem to be avoidance and blissful ignorance.
