My thoughts:
I am a Sherry Ficklin fan. I have read and reviewed two other books by her, Foresight and Secondsight. Because I already love the Gods of Fate series, I opened this book with an expectation that I don't experience when reading a new author. The expectation was great characters set in a well developed world bringing me a story that I wouldn't want to put down!
I was thrilled to once again find THAT story!
The characters are great! Sophie is fabulous. She is all about duty, family, sacrifice and doing the right thing for the right reasons. Eric is wonderful. He is just the right mix of good and bad boy to make you fall for him. Tyger is that element that we all have lurking. Rayne is a whole lot of WOW that makes you wonder which one you would choose if they were real. Sophie's family is an interesting mix and then there is Mercy - what can I say - you're supposed to not like her....
I like how the "real" world is mixed with the paranormal world, with the mixed emotions and reactions from the people in the story, I found the setting to be believable and well developed.
The story itself moves quickly and the plot is thought out and planned to keep the reader reading and enjoying every word. A great first look at the Palmeto Moon Detective Agency! I can't wait for more from this series! ( )
