You can click on the cover image to go to Goodreads for a synopsis. I chose to share this mini review since I shared Remy in my Sidekick Showcase for this week. Here are my thoughts:I thoroughly enjoyed this debut novel! It had the right mixture of action and humor. Jackie wakes up one morning in a dumpster. As it turns out, she's become a succubus. She happens to find the Serim (Noah) who helped in her creation (unknowingly) and he introduces her to Remy - another succubus, to help her learn about her new life. Jackie also meets an angel, Uriel, who promises to return her to her former life...for a favor. The adventure that follows leads her to meeting Zane, her vampire creator. And now Jackie has two 'boyfriends' to contend with. Life as a succubus keeps getting more and more interesting.
Like I said, lots of humor in this book. There are poignant moments, too. And it was plenty suspenseful. I look forward to the next book in this series.

You can click on the book cover to go to Goodreads to read a synopsis. I chose to share Stray with y'all since it was first Rachel Vincent novel and she won me over! She's an auto-buy author for me.I loved, loved, loved this book! Faythe is an awesome heroine and I was happy to see her evolve somewhat through the course of the book. At first, she seemed spoiled but she was coming into her own by the end.
Ms. Vincent's creation of werecat society was fresh and fabulous. It's totally believable that 'strays' in pride territory is something they'd encounter and have to deal with. And the pride hierarchy and dynamics she created are so realistic. I enjoyed the ride in how the stray story motored its way through the book. The plot twists and turns were thrilling. Some were so shocking! I also appreciated the subtle clues Ms. Vincent left in the story to set up the next installments in the series. I can't wait!
