Product Description BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Marie Moning's Bloodfever.
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….

beware the "Irish" accent September 1, 2010 Sparrow 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
What started as a story that could have been a mildy entertaining read, turned out to be a dissapointment bordering on the insulting.
For all the research the author must have done in order to give decent descriptions of places in Dublin and use of the Irish language, she completely lost me at her first dialogue of the main character with an Irish character. Irish people do not speak like that. I quote:"Evenin' t'ye, m'dear," the desk clerk said cheerfully. (wait for it...wait for it....) "Opin you 'ave reserves, a'sure ye'll be needin' 'em such a foine night th'season."
If you can't do an accent right, don't do it.
It was good enough... August 30, 2010 Michele S (Westchester Couny, NY) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
that I kept reading and the 2nd and 3rd book in the series are even better!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this series! August 28, 2010 Mommy & Amazon Shopper (KS United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I downloaded this free on my Kindle and am so thankful I did. Wow, what a fabulous book! Character development cannot get much better than this. I am on the edge of my seat with this series. Love the interaction between Mac and Barrons. Chemistry, but not romance. Though you think just maybe ... someday ... something may happen. Who knows, but I am hooked! If you love action-packed, book with characters that have so many dimesions you may never think you'll figure them out, you have to read this series. It's one of my favorites now!
Disappointed August 26, 2010 Paula A. Hodge (Oviedo, FL, US) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I read this book, but had to struggle through it. I agree with another reviewer - how dumb can a heroine be. Come on - no one is that clueless except in the movies. It makes one wonder what the author really thinks about women - obviously not much. The heroine is stupid, careless, and an idiot, and I don't believe anyone would really act the way she did. I was really disappointed in this latest book, and I don't think I'm going to read any more of the series.
Excellent series August 25, 2010 Nydelathy (Long Island, NY) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Found this book on a rack at the local King Kullen grocery store. Best find I ever had. Devoured the book and when I learned it was part of a series, I immediately purchased the others. Can't wait for the last book! The only drawback is that each book ends on such a cliffhanger! Bit frustrating having to wait for the ending, however the author was ingenious! Creating a story so fascinating and keeping you wanting more...
