Eminently forgettable, unfortunately. Not bad, but it's only been a couple of months since I read it & I had to read the description to bring back any real memory of it. So the writing wasn't terrible, but the story line wasn't that interesting, either. ( )

This one shows some potential but, like others, I'm not sure if some of it couldn't have ended up cut out and a tighter story created. I am curious about what happens next and about some of the secrets that are lurking behind things but sometimes it came out as too pat.

Delia Street has moved to Vegas, finding herself on CSI as a corpse in a world a little like ours but with Vampires and Werewolves and other creatures out of myth and legend who came out of hiding in 2000. Las Vegas is under the thumb of werewolves, but the vampires don't agree. Delia searches for the truth, as an orphan she wants to find if she has relatives and this corpse may tell her something.

It's readable but somehow it's a bit confused and unsure what it really wants to be. ( )

The first bok in the Delilah Street series. I liked the book, it definetly is written to be a series. The heroine is smart, witty and feminine. I've been a fan of Carole Nelson Douglas's characters since Midnight Louie. ( )

Like a mix up at the printer accidentally combined a cheesy romance
with what might have been a good urban fantasy on its own.

The beginning of this book is slow and unnecessary. The story doesn't
really start until Delilah arrives in Vegas, and unfortunately the
reason she is drawn to Vegas and unwanted fame is pretty weak. But the
worst part is that this book could have been the start of an
interesting new urban fantasy series if it weren't for the generic,
cheesy, and totally unrelated to anything else romantic side plot with frequent sex breaks.
The romantic tension with Snow and Madrigal was much more intriguing
and promised to develop in future books.

Sexual Content:
A lot. And very lengthy, detailed descriptions each time. ( )

I felt really confused after this book, there were so many things that were skirted around and/or left un-answered. I bought this and the second at the same time, I just hope this one has a few more answer's. Not what I was expecting..... ( )
