A short story of sex and Micah.

That's it. Really. Were you expecting more? There isn't anything more. No, I'm not kidding.

MICAH is a very short novella put into book form to make Ms. Hamilton more money. And no, I'm not kidding about that either.

Thankfully, I like Micah, although I don't think there are too many more descriptions that the author can make up to describe his physical characteristics. He's not that tall, but he's big where it matters, is hotter than hot, and can have sex as often as Anita needs. Which, we all know, is basically any time she's not unconscious.

I'm glad I read it, because it's part of the series. But the only thing I learned that was new is how Micah became a wereleopard and what happened to his family.

That's it. Really. I tried to tell you. ( )

A short romance. Not worth what I paid for it, although I have a lot of time & money invested in the series to date, so I bought it. ( )

Against my better judgment I started reading Anita again. I used to love this series but the whole ardeur thing has made me stop reading them. It was nice to see Anita go back to her roots and raise a zombie but it is still not the same. ( )

I have mixed feelings about this. Not really because of the content, but because of the delivery. A novel this was not. It was a short story printed with 14pt type and double-spaced, with full page chapter headings to add some bulk to the book. Not really worth the $8 I spent on it (man, I remember when paperbacks were $3.50). I read it in about an hour and a half Saturday night. I'm expecting big things from her next real book in the series, which is due out in June. ( )

Boring. Supposedly an "exploration" of Anita's and Micah's relationship. Doesn't really reveal anything other than a bit of their unhappy pasts. Ms. Hamilton keeps replaying the same schtick over and over. In a previous book, Richard described how he was scarred by an ex-lover saying he was 'too big'. Well, surprise surprise.... we found out Micah had the EXACT same history. And then Anita is there to proclaim how much of a size queen she is and helps them get over their 'size issues'. I would appreciate if plots weren't re-used, thanks. PLUS, this book was double spaced and thin as a novella... probably sold for the regular price of a full book. Which is a total ripoff published only to get more cash from LKH fans. ( )

My idea of love is not everyone's ideal. Some have broken under the strain of it. This one's for Jon, who sees love not as a burden, but as a gift.

Book description

Amazon.com Download Description (ISBN 0515140872, Mass Market Paperback)

"""RAISING THE DEAD IS EASY. LOVE IS HARD..."" There are lots of reasons to raise the dead-some private, some public. In this case, the feds have a witness who died before he could speak on the record. They want him raised so his testimony can be taken. So here I am, on a plane to Philadelphia, flying off to do my job. But I'm not alone. Micah is with me. Micah, head of the St. Louis wereleopard pard. King to my Queen. The only one of my lovers who can stir my blood with just a glance from his chartreuse cat's eyes. I was happy to have him at my side. Until he mentioned that this will be our first time alone together. No Master Vampire. No Alpha Werewolf. Just me and Micah. And all my fears and doubts..."
