review 1: Well, now I am just really angry that I wasted my time on this pile of nonsense. NO ONE is as stupid as Ms. George's characters. NO ONE. Even one of her characters admits as much in the book! The first book of the series was great until the 75% mark, and this book fell apart at the 25% mark. Bree MacGowan would be such a great, strong female character if the author would STOP with the stupidity & the added insanity of shape-shifting characters. A little fun & whimsy is great, but sheer stupidity by most of the characters does not make for entertaining reading.
review 2: Bree MacGowan, who came with her boyfriend who's working in CA, sees a woman fall off a bridge while she's wandering outdoors taking pictures. She took the picture of the people who were with
... morethe woman before trying to rescue her. The sheriff is a good guy, takes her statement and camera disc and she goes home. Bree and Beau are then threatened, have property destroyed and stolen and don't know why. Bree doesn't know who killed the woman, and then Bree goes back to her home in Vermont. Meanwhile, in CA Beau is injured on his work site; sabotage. Bree has a neck injury and is then abducted and taken back to CA by two men who work for the senator. The woman who was murdered was killed by or for her husband, a CA state senator. The senator wants Bree to identify some former criminals as the murderers so he can get his late wife's money. The men working for the senator are undercover from some agency; they keep Bree safe, but don't help her to escape. She escapes, takes the senator prisoner, finds Beau and eventually escape with the help of an undercover female FBI agent. Once home again, after a wedding, the senator tries to kill Bree, is sprayed by Bree's pet skunk and is captured. Beau dumps Bree. less
