I love a good urban fantasy series so I was interested in trying this one out. Jericho James is introduced as a normal human private investigator specializing in cryptid cases, who up to this point has found non-supernatural explanations for all her past cases. She’s a clever, capable woman and overall pretty badass without taking herself too seriously. I like that she’s cool but still down to earth and relatable. 

This book is definitely just the first in what I’m hoping is another long urban fantasy series. The pace in the first half is on the slower side as we’re introduced to the main characters but also to this new hidden world of werewolves. I’m very interested to see this world grow and to learn more about the werewolves as well as hopefully some other cryptids and supernaturals in the sequels. 

As a big romance reader I was hoping for a little more but I also know how to be patient and can appreciate a slow burn. I’m intrigued though to see where and with who Jericho ends up as the series goes on. Benjamin and Jericho had plenty of insta-attraction moments throughout this book that I assumed they would be official by the end. To my surprise they weren’t but I see them both doing a lot more growing as individuals so I’m still excited to see how and if their relationship develops.

I think this book and its future series has so much potential. I can’t wait to see what case Jericho works on next!
