I'm just having fun watching it, whatever they do.Īnother thing I really enjoy about this series is the world building. Anyway, this is one of those relationships that span several books where you know they're supposed to get together and the question is when. The dance between the two is amusing, and I'm not sure who is going to 'win' the game because they've both made some bold and brassy declarations.

She's got a big secret about her identity and she's still convinced that Curran is just after her for the challenge. By the time you get to Magic Strikes, Curran has made it clear he's courting her, but Kate is unwilling to be involved with him. OK I think my favorite parts have to do with the interaction between Kate and Curran. The ending left me wanting more and eagerly awaiting the next book. I even found myself going back to specific points in the book to reread them already. I was thrilled to get the book and devoured it in one sitting. We are given a larger glimpse into Kate's history and how she came to be the way she is. The overall storyline about her father takes a nice leap in this book.Īnd the chemistry between Kate and Curran continues to ignite the pages as Kate fights her feelings for the Lord of the Beasts. As the books have progressed, she has opened up and is slowly letting people into her life. Kate started the series as a loner, unwilling and maybe unable to depend on anyone but herself. A must read for anyone who likes magic, shifter or urban fantasy novels. Andrews has created a unique world filled with fascinating characters and exciting dialogue. It is possible that it could be read as a stand alone, but let's face it, who would want to? Ms.

This is the third installment of the Kate Daniels series.
