ACES WILD has taken TOP SPOT in my favorite novellas list!! You're probably thinking what I usually do when it comes to novellas. They're TOO short and you can't connect with the characters b/c it's not developed enough. That is NOT the case with this one. This novella is great from beginning to end. Carlson explains this new Sin City Collectors world, while weaving a back story for Nevada and Jake and keeping the action and fighting going.Nevada Hamilton (love the name) and Jake Troubadour are both "Collectors" in Sin City. Nevada is a dhampir who HATES vampires. Jake is a Hellhound. Oh yes! A Hellhound! I think it's my NEW favorite type of supernatural creature. LOL! He is 1 big and sexy bad ass! Jake is the perfect mixture though, part bad ass and part sweet and loving. These two have great chemistry together and made the sexy times THAT much sexier. The climax of the story was slightly predictable but didn't take anything away from the storyline.There was no feeling of the story being rushed or feelings of missing information, Carlson was able to capture it all in this novella.Overall, I LOVED this novella, it left me wanting more and I can't wait to read more of this series. I think this was a BRILLIANT idea! :-)
