Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 03 11, 2012
Book 3 "Werewolves in Love". Preceded byYours, Mine and Howls. No further books at the time of this review.Plot:Sara was ready to leave Luxor, but she didn't expect to do so with an undercover P.I. werewolf on the back of a motorbike. Bryan finds himself lusting after the cute girl under his protection. Can it be for keeps?Comments:- Contemporary paranormal ("sentient non-humans") romance with some explicit sex.- 2557 kindle locations, 40,467 words (finishes around 2270 locations)- m/f - explicit, loving, not very frequent. Given the length of the book, we're talking "spicy" rather than "erotica".- Includes excerpts fromYours, Mine and Howlsby Kinsey W. Holley,Camwolfby JL Merrow andRocky Mountain Heatby Vivian Arend.- Third book in the series with a return of characters from Book1, however it would standalone. It does end on a HEA-for-now, the overarching plot arc of Evil Russian Werewolves has still to be satisfactorily resolved.Opinion:"Ready to Run" returns us to the World ofKiss and Kin, as we revisit the Houston Pack (led by Nick), and the Russian Werewolves. But this time we have more of a plot, and more World interaction. It's good, with strong characters and an interesting storyline, but I didn't quite feel the depth and romance of "Yours, Mine and Howls". That's not to say it isn't A Good Book. Holley has created a clever, original World with her Apocalyptic towns, "sentient not-quite-humans" who live among us, and Evil Russian Dudes. It does make a story that draws you in, and keeps you there, as you join Sara on the roller-coaster that has become her life. And it opens the way to an interesting series. But I didn't like it as much as Book2. And like Book1, the ending seems to be missing. We finish somewhat abruptly with a HEA-for-now and unresolved issues with a number of characters. Even the HEA for Sara and Bryan isn't quite satisfactory. Which irritates me a little. Still, it's worth reading and I enjoyed it but, without knowing where Holley is taking the series next, I am slightly confused.-CR-
