Detective Marcus Kage has been on the Kansas City force for twelve years and never been more frustrated than he is now.  There have been four women's bodies found - all of them sporting the same tattoo and all of them Jane Does.  Because of his Lycanos heritage Marcus doesn't age and quite frankly somebody is bound to notice so he's quitting the force and moving on - but not until he's solved these murders.Megarera `Meg' Eumenides is the proud owner of FURYOUS INK which just happens to be the only tattoo parlor in the country sanctioned and blessed by Athena's priests to mark an Amazon.  That alone makes her a key focal point in Marcus's investigation - and while she's certainly not opposed to having him focusing on her she'd much prefer he do it for more intimate reasons that a string of murders.  As it is she already feels unbelievable guilt for what happened to Galatea (the one victim they'd been able to identify) and is determined to uncover the truth about who is killing the Amazons.Saranna DeWylde packs quite a little punch into a relatively short story.  FURYOUS INK is non-stop action packed from the get-go with a murder investigation, paranormal entities, scorching hot sex and some seriously stunning revelations.  Marcus's background has left him leery of his own power when in his Lycanos form and because of that he believes there's no future between him and Meg especially when he realizes that she's keeping secrets.  How could he possibly be with a woman who can look him in the eyes and knowingly keeping important details from him that might have helped solve the crime and saved lives?  I found FURYOUS INK to be a captivating read and became more and more fascinated with this alternate reality as the story progressed - and really loved how everything turns out in the end.  It's shocking - but at the same time titillatingly appropriate.Chrissy Dionne (courtesy of Romance Junkies)
