**Originally written for Book Bliss book blog.**Review: 5 starsGeneral: A great, fast paced and original read from start to finish. The book is a blend of dark and urban fantasy that was well written and captivating. The characters were original and the mix of supernaturals was wonderful. I also love urban fantasies because they aren't afraid to throw in the whole melting pot of supers and this one didn't disappoint. The story flowed perfectly and kept me from wanting to put it down. The plot was the right mix of action, fantasy, darkness and the subtle romance in the right places. I had no problems envisioning the world as the details were well done and spot on. The tension in the plot was wonderfully mastered  right up until the end....darn end (spoiler). The strongest element in this book was the story itself - the details were thought out and the storyline masterfully executed. I can't wait to see what we come up against in the next installment.Characters: Natalya- Natalya is a fun heroine and perfectly fit for her job and the world she's in. She's a touch on the cliche side as this character (the type not Natalya) has become very popular. However that doesn't stop her from being well written. She's sassy, sarcastic and kick butt. She's been looking out for herself and does it properly but she has no issues falling in line with her partner or protecting others. I also enjoyed that she was a tiger shifter as it gave her a little something extra.
