About this audiobook
After cheating death twice in one night, confessing her true nature to her werewolf soul mates and being asked to kill one of her closest friends, Secret took a much-needed vacation. By running away.
Now she’s back in town—dragged kicking and screaming—determined to clear Holden Chancery’s name. Right after she finds out what he’s accused of. It shouldn’t be hard—Holden has a habit of using their new and scintillating psychic bond to break into her thoughts and dreams at some very, shall we say, awkward moments.
Just a few things stand in her way: a secretive Tribunal leader, a group of would-be vampire slayers and two werewolf boyfriends who refuse to let her operate in her customary lone-wolf style. Even less amusing are the terrifying creatures that someone is using in an attempt to gain control of the council. Even for this out-of-the-ordinary bounty hunter, it’s a challenge with potentially deadly teeth.
Warning: Contains an ever-plucky heroine with no shortage of weapons, super-hot mind games, an ever-complicated love triangle and one hell of a creepy amusement park.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Really enjoying this series and the narrator is excellent too
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I’m so loving this series. I need more of Lucas. It’s almost like he isn’t her mate. Next book please!!!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5A bit too long as Secret rummages through unnecessary places and encounters.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I just can't stomach the romantic connections to every man she comes across.
Otherwise not too bad.
Another annoying trait if hers: charges in on her own way too often for someone with sooooo many friends in high places too. Stupid - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I had to stop, all the issues I found with the first book I accepted due to world building and establishing a baseline for the series. For example all the 'telling', and not enough real dialogue or purpose to the story. But with the immaturity, and selfishness of the heroine growing, I just couldn't do it. One second she is thinking "wow, I was awful, maybe my actions had consequences" then the next moment she's whining that she's way mad ? humph. Then she's f^*@#ing another one of her dudes. Nope, my time matters to me, I'm out.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The audio part is fine. Th story is contrived. How she brought home, what’s going on, all of it; doesn’t follow a natural progression.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Ok how dare you leave it there. Damn where is the next book. Wow these are awesome books wonderfully written make sure you read them in order. I have read through and entire day and most of the night. Sigh didn’t need sleep anyway next one here I come.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love love love ... I can't wait to read the rest.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/53.5 Stars for me!

Was there so much sex or unrealistic sex that you rolled your eyes and/or skipped forward? No
The back story... The H ran away after getting assigned to kill Holden. Eventually she is brought back to complete the contract.
The Romance... No real relationship as she just won't allow it. Just sex for her.
The drama explosion... The H, again, makes a TSTL decision and nearly dies... AGAIN!
Did it feel real or contrived? Contrived
Was it OTT? Yes
Separation involved? Not really
Was it resolved properly or rushed? Ok
Final Notes... She should be getting wiser and using her resources before going into bad situations. She also freezes up a lot which allows her to get attacked, injured or captured. It really hurts her Badass persona.
