I'm totally biased when it comes to Sherrilyn Kenyon because I really like her stuff. I thought this one was fun. I think she has done one more fantasy story before and this one is just different enough. Allison reminds me a little bit of Bride in Kenyon's Hunter series but I really liked her. Vinnie was okay but the coolest thing was Kenyon gave a little bit more background on Joe from the BAD series.

I'm conflicted with Black's story. This is the first time I've read her and the story had potential. I think if she left out the spanish fly drug and just have Johen win her with how sweet he was, it would have been a better story. That way it doesn't reek of rape so much. Also, Sofia was too weak of a character. I would have liked her to fight against being a captive a little bit more. She just basically laid down and took it. Especially when Black made a point that she was supposed to be feisty but her actions were complete opposite of that. Very disappointing but I am intrigue to see if Black's novels would be better. It's hard to justify kidnapping and rape though.

I've actually haven't read Cole before but have been meaning to. I was very impressed with the story. Great dialogue and just lots of action and fun with a good plot. I'll definitely look for her novels.

Overall I think Cole and Kenyon's story were worthwhile and Black's story was neither here or there.
