I love that the story had enough weirdness to make it unique and that kept me interested.  I wanted to see where the author would go with it.  Although it may seem that I didn't like much about it, those criticisms are outweighed by what makes this a good book.  David Haywood Young can tell a story better than most ebook authors I've read.  His work is clean and draws one in.  The characters feel like people I'd want to know or at least know more about.  I also read Pagan Sex by this author and still think about that story.  Give it a try if you're looking for another really good read.I titled this review like I did because I almost didn't like this book.  The beginning had me feeling like I walked into a movie sequel that had already started and I knew nothing about the first one or the current one.  To say it starts fast paced is correct, but it felt disjointed and confusing to me.  I also didn't care for how the author kept switching between first and last names of his bit players - I couldn't keep them straight.  I'm still not sure who Gordon was in the interrogation room with after he met the FBI agent.  But then I'm not the brightest bulb in the bunch.At some point I realized I had fallen in love with Owen, Martina, Aaron and the rest of the main bunch.  Granted, some of Owen's responses seem inappropriate (or lacking) but overall I felt he is a good guy and someone I want to know better.  It feels like there are good beginnings of relationships between some of the main characters and the stage is set for a sequel.The story was too vague when talking about the Cousins.  I wish that part of the narrative had been expanded or left out.  As it was written it didn't really feel like I was in the same book at all.I will be on the lookout for more work from this author.
