This is the first time I have read anything by this author and I must say I like her writing style. Mac Lane goes to Dublin after her sister Alina is murdered. What she finds out about herself and her "normal" world sends her stumbling through dark streets with even darker beings out to get her. Jericho Barrons, man of mystery and now her ally is using her to find mystical objects and prevent world wide catastrophe. At first I will say Mac's flighty personality and obsessions with girlie clothes and all the trappings made me a little skeptical of how she was going to hold her own and become the warrior she's going to have to become. Trusts no one, only thinks of avenging her sister, never really takes in her surroundings....like Barrons said, he gave her three days before she ended up dead the way she was blundering around. And it all started by asking a stranger about some weird thing her sister had left her a voice message about. The Sinsar Dubh...evil written a million years ago and so powerful. Now she's knee deep in shades, unseelies, death-by-sex fae and whatever Barrons is. I like the fact that the two main characters, Ms. Lane (Mac) and Jericho Barrons, have fallen madly in love with one another or just jumped straight into bed just for the heck of it. He's trying to teach her to protect and defend herself, while getting her help sensing the magical objects they need. He somehow shows up whenever she's neck deep in trouble and has enough of a hidden side to make my curiosity want to know more about him. I will continue on with the series just to find out more about "the Lord Master", what his plan is and just how will the petite and girlie Mac play into any of this. The physical book comes with 3 pages called "Glossary from Mac's Journal" I've also read: - The Alpha Alternative: JZB Sex Scene #1.5 which I've heard is expanded in Book #7. As I was reading it I couldn't understand how I missed Mac's version of this story in Book 1 but by the end it's clear. That "twist" is my favorite part of the story. This story revealed a lot about Barrons that isn't obvious from reading the story from Mac's POV. It made me dislike Barrens very much. - Blood Fever #2 - 4* - Faefever #3 - 3* - started with audio but got HC to finish. I couldn't wait for car rides to continue the story. I ran out of errands. :) - Dreamfever #4 - 4* - What a cliffhanger - Shadowfever #5 - 4* - Someone else's review said "We don't have to accept him nor do we have to forgive him and I personally don't. But, I do enjoy reading about him." - Fever Moon Graphic Novel #5.5 - 1* - With Mac drawn like that I obviously wasn't the target audience. Absolutely ridiculous. I can understand her being hot but that was over the top. And Barrons... awful look. He doesn't have to match the imagine in my head but does he have to be ugly? This must of taken place concurrently with one of the books, I think book 5. But Open questions/Notes for myself her pool of magic fix anything ruins? *eye-roll* endless access to whatever magic you need is cheating her mother was pregnant but Barrens said he saw grave 5 days later. where is her mom? how is she UK but had normal birth/life why did she like barrens soooo much why did Dani get sis killed why does Rowena hate her so much why do shades ignore Barrens who did v'lane/cruce think she was, he called her princess. Author says regarding next books "It's a trilogy, books 6/7/8. Then there will be two more stories that continue 1-5. -------------------- It's 2020 and I haven't gotten back to the series in maybe 8 years. I'm going to let the idea of reading the next books go. I don't need more of the same. Seeking other stories now. And I'm so over having a story be spread out along so many books. Slow start, but a satisfying hook into the rest of the series. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

MacKayla Lane's life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she's your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman.Or so she thinks...until something extraordinary happens.When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death--a cryptic message on Mac's cell phone--Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister's killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed--a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae....As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister's death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane--an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women--closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac's true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book--because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands....
