I am wondering if my enchantment with Feehan books are fading because the her last three releases were a bit of a disapointment. I didn't hate this one but it wasn't up to par with her past books.

There was a lot of repetion. I kept thinking to myself, "Didn't you just say that three paragraphs ago?" I felt like she could have done a better job editing. The characters and the feel of this book are also too similar to the Drake sisters' novels (but those were way better). Here Feehan ties in with the Drake sisters by casually mentioning them or throwing a few scenes where Jonas and Alex acted more like bumbling small town cops. Not sure why she bothered mentioning them in the first place. It seems like if she was going to tie the new series to the old one, Feehan should have integrated the characters a bit better.

The characters were all likeable until towards the end. The ending itself was rather lame but I won't give it away. It's very rushed as well. But Judith comes off really pathetic and desperate when Stefan betrays her trusts at least twice and she forgives him very easily. In fact he doesn't have to do anything to earn her trust back. Guess with her power, her men options are limited but still, can't the woman have a little pride?

Overall it was an okay book, but I'm not sure I really want to continue with the series. I definitely won't spend any real money on Feehan's new stuff anymore.
