So, somehow I seem to have just run through the first three books in The Madison Wolves series in as many days and am only just now coming up for air.  oh I'll get to the rest, no doubt, but after the third it was time to take a short break, and not only that, I thought I'd drop by and post my thoughts on each one so far...which is already a triumph for the author right there because, I don't write reviews.  Check my history, I just am not normally motivated to write reviews, and yet, here I am.Continuing with Fox Play, the author moves right into the story continuing the conversational tone of the first book.  The first book made me feel as though Michaela and were in the same room as she shared her story with me personally.  For the second book, perhaps Michaela took time to send someone for refreshments for both of us, but once we have our drinks we settle back down and she tells me more about how her life developed after falling in with the Madison wolf pack.  The Chicago Wolves want to muscle in on the Madison alpha's territory and we just can't have that now can we.  It gets dangerous when it becomes apparent that they also want Michaela for a very sick and twisted game first touched on briefly in the first novel.  Can't have that either.  The book isn't so much about the conflict itself, though that does become the climax for the story, but more about how Michaela copes with the fact that she's in this strange new world of being a pseudo-member of a wolf pack and worrying that her freedoms as a fox may disappear.  Her romance with Lara continues to blossom, though its such a tense situation it's hard to make headway.Regardless, the story continues to be engaging and purely character driven.  Character development and character driven stories get me every time and with this second book the author continues to impress.  Constantly I have to remind myself that these characters have human form because they are so immersed in their animal sides it very easy to forget.An excellent sequel to the original.
