Oh yay!  I've enjoyed the character of Raymond who was a secondary character in the series and now its his turn to be the hero.  I really love this series with the unique addition to the paranormal world these gargoyles and their ways bring.Marty Beakman has been hanging out at the coffee shop to both observe and watch for the mysterious guy who holds his curiosity, but also heats him up just by scent alone.  He finally has the guy's habit down so he knows when he'll show up so that Marty can catch a glimpse.  His odd male wears a long trench coat, black gloves, big dark shades, hat and his face is covered in a bushy beard.  Everyone else thinks the guy is homeless, but Marty suspects something else.  He tries to get up the courage to approach the little guy and meet him.Raymond can't help himself.  Ever since that first time a couple of months ago when he scented his mate- his very human mate in the coffee shop, he keeps going back just to get a glimpse of him and check to make sure all is well with him.  If only he could figure out how to take the next step without sending his mate running for the hills when he sees Raymond's gargoyle body.It could have gone on like that forever if not for the help of a brother, a stalker and well meaning friends.  But will Marty forgive Raymond for what he had to do to save his life?I really liked these two characters and their developing relationship.  The addition of all the others who added to, but didn't obstruct the pacing and plot was just a plus.  Cuties Bobbie and the pregnant Cornelius as co-conspirators just made me smile.  I even had to laugh about how the big dangerous Vale deliberately tried to scare Marty (on a side note, look forward to seeing who he gets as a mate).  It is always fun to meet up with the other recurring characters, but I like the new ones who were introduced too.  Now that I've met Marty's brother and friend along with his nurse.  I can't help hoping to see some more gargoyle matings before all is said and done.  Bad boy Logan and the bossy Dr. Perseus top my list.The stalker part of the plot added a slice of excitement, but I was fine with it taking second place to the relationship.  My only disappointment was not seeing what Raymond looked like after he molted.Another good installment to the series that just makes me eager for more.
