If you are a fan of the Secret McQueen series and are jonesing for your next fix, you are going to love this novella.  It's got a little bit of everything in it.  Secret once again has to figure out what's going on in New York and this time she's got Holden along to help her. Now if you don't know this by now, I love Holden.  Love, love, love him and I was so happy to read so much about him in this story.  He and secret have this underlining tension that has spanned throughout the previous books and knows that it's there, but can't really act on it.  Secret is half vamp/half were and only recently tapped into her were side with the help of Desmond and Lucas from the previous books in the series.  She is currently involved with both of them who are both weres and Holden being a vamp of course is not happy with this.  I think he's always been attracted to her and never acted on it and has finally admitted that he wants her.  Now Secret's emotions are being pulled between 3 men that care deeply about her.I also loved the gory parts of the book as Secret has to figure out who is murdering people and stuffing body parts into Christmas stockings.  I found myself saying "ewww" a lot and while this type of subject in a book is not my favorite, it was entertaining in this book.  LOL  I just couldn't wait for Secret to get to the bottom of things so we could see what was really going on.  This is where Sierra Dean's writing really excels because she makes her stories so entertaining!  This series has quickly become one of the ones that I look forward to reading.  The author's words and storyline flow from chapter to chapter and it just captures you to the point where you don't want to stop reading for anything!  I've had this experience from the 1st time I read one of Sierra's books and truly think it will be the same every time.  I love her "voice" and the characters each bring something different to the series which makes you want more even after you read the very last word on the page.If you are looking for a new, fresh, UF/PNR series to get into, you will not be disappointed with Secret McQueen. It's just as unique as what Secret is and you'll find yourself wanting to read more of her. What are you waiting for, get started!
