While I will agree with the other reviews that the hero and heroine of this story didn't come across as over the top as her characters usually do I liked the contrast between their "normal" and the crazy going on around them. I think it helped the "crazy" around them to stand out a little more. It was also interesting to watch Kera try to adjust from a controlling former marine to working with the crows who have NO organization or scheduling. Kera has to make adjustments to fit into her new life and world and Shelly Laurenston does a good job of showing that growth and eventual understanding. I could relate to Kera in the aspect of her getting along better, and understanding better, the all male ravens than her own all female crows, since I get along better with men than women as well. They just make more sense to me, just like they do to her. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and Shelly Laurenston's ever present humor that often leaves me laughing out loud. I will definitely be watching for the next book in the series.
