The gang are in fine form until an unexpected guest from the past shows up, and then things start to get strange when everybody becomes entranced with the new arrival and starts acting really weirdly \u2013 with the exception of Cat, Ian and Denise. And so, in a fabulous partnering, Cat and Ian team up to investigate the new guy, figure out what the hell is going on, and then find a way to fix it.<\/p>\n<p>I loved this story! I\u2019m a huge fan of all of the characters in this series, but I really love Ian, so I was so happy to be able to spend some time with him and his shallow, selfish, morally bankrupt ways.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cI don\u2019t care what you think, your junk does\u00a0<\/em>not<em>\u00a0have special abilities.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He is hilarious! And he actually has quite the soft spot for his friends, and I love that we got to see that side of him.<\/p>\n<p>Cat has plenty of opportunity to go all badass \u2013against some very unexpected foes \u2013 as do the rest of the guys, and the action scenes in this are really full on!<\/p>\n<p>And of course, through it all, Cat and Bones\u2019 incredible bond is still in place, and I love, love, love these two together. One of my fave PNR couples of all time, I love how strong they are, how in love they are, how HOT they are together (phew!), and how they don\u2019t let anybody mess with them or their friends.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cShe\u2019d picked the\u00a0<\/em>wrong<em>\u00a0couple to fuck with.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is a great little extra to the series, and a must-read for any fan.<\/p>\n<p>4 stars.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>See our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?page_id=9820\" target=\"_blank\">Night Huntress series<\/a> page for more information including reading order, reviews and buy links.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buy: Kindle Ebook Review Oh Cat and Bones, how I have missed you!!!
