I could not put this book down. The characters are all fun and the mystery is woven into a story of two people who have life issues that we can relate to. The love story is wonderful. I can't wait to read the next one in this series.

I wasn't sure I was going to like this character because Sydney Rose Parnell is a pretty unusual detective/cop, and the action turns a bit violent at times, but Nickless has created a quite intriguing person with an unusual background for a female lead, lots of personal issues to sort out, some amazing physical skills, and someone you end up rooting for. I'm looking forward to the next book.

The author does a great job with character development, and with defining relationships.

Caitlin is fun. She isn't flawless and she is very aware of that throughout the book. I was able to relate to a lot of the things she is going through in her personal life - specially regarding how there is this norm of things we should have accomplished before a certain age and how we also have a tendency to reflect and measure ourself against others's life.
However Caitlin's character does not steal all the attention but leave space for the reader to get interested in the other characters and their personalities and background stories - which I personally like and hope will be develop even more in the next book.
The interaction and relation between all the characters are very interesting and in my opinion makes the book worths the read.

It takes skill to make a presumably unlikable character both sympathetic and likeable, but Ms. Harper does it well with both Ivy and Winter. The magical witch world is nicely realized and believable for the most part, although how a guy in HR could be madly typing on keys when the witches weren't supposed to be compatible with technology puzzled me.

I thought she did a great job with the whodunit part as I didn't know who done it till it was revealed. Overall, an enjoyable read with interesting characters and storyline. I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series.

The two primary characters are well developed and the supporting cast adds interest and the critical catalysts for the characters to develop. I enjoyed it more for these reasons than the plot.

I enjoyed the character development devoted to Josephine. The plot is well constructed and plausible. Keep 'em coming!

I enjoyed this book immensely, Scott and Alexis are each other's measure completely.  He is older but she is a relatively mature 20 year old so the age difference is not jarring.

Ms. Amato has a great character in Emilia Cruz. It took a few pages for the hook to set. Once I got to the crime, it was a great read. Emilia is a well-developed character, one that is fascinating. She is not to be  toyed with. If you don't believe me, read what happens with Gomez at the 51% mark. I'll read the next Emilia Cruz novel.

The two main characters are a little annoying at first, but as the story goes along, there is great character development. Yan's back story is very interesting, and the budding romance between him and the main character is sexy and sweet. The sex scenes are very tastefully done, full of passion but don't leave you feeling dirty after reading it. Highly recommend this book.

I enjoyed this very much.  It's interesting and compelling and I couldn't help but care about the main character.  The ability he has and how much trouble he has coping with it, his harsh family past, his life of the last few years, he's a character who is struggling to find a better place in life and his attitude is understandable, considering how rough his life has been.  Loved it!  I hope there's more in the series.

Glad to have found another author that I can enjoy.  Very well developed characters, interesting story, easy to read writing style.  The characterization was one of the best things about this book, especially with Roanna.  You really see her character change throughout the book.  There were a lot of emotionally painful moments for her, especially at the beginning and it moved me too.  Wonderful chemistry with the main characters and I liked that many of the acts were written from both of the characters' points of views, allowing the reader to see what each character is thinking/feeling, while realizing exactly how the other character is misinterpreting those same actions/glimpses of emotions.  Howard keeps the acts with sub-characters short, and there are not too many, which was good so the focus is really on the relationship between Roanna and Webb.

As with most series, I get caught up with the characters' personalities as well as the plots.  I find Anna to be a major whiner, immature and a pain. So I'm pleased when she is less a part of the story line.  But that proves that Flynn wrote pretty darned good, when I can get so immersed that there is an emotional connection with the characters and I find myself telling the whiner to shut up or asking the main character Mitch why the heck he puts up with her etc.... :-)
I'm a get to the point kind of reader, so at times, there is a bit too much detail but I'm never disappointed when I force myself to slow down and pay attention to the detail. It isn't a waste of time but enhances the story experience.
I'm looking forward to continuing reading the series and hopefully will enjoy even what Mr Flynn wasn't able to write.

This book was well done and the two main characters are interesting and well developed.  While the detective genre is common, the character of Comoran is different from most.  The addition of Robin as a fully developed character definitely adds to the story.  I have enjoyed the previous two books in this series and look forward to the next one in the series.

Fans of Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone will enjoy this character. Sydney is a PI with the tenacity to see a case through to the end, no matter what her adversaries throw at her. An enjoyable read, highly recommended.

I am an avid obsessive zompoc reader. And I have to say I really enjoyed this story.  While some other reviewers find fault w lengthy back story, I myself quite enjoy it. And considering the author has the obvious intentions of making this a series I think the character development is very important. The comradery of the main characters and groups of people leaves you feeling hopeful and excited for the next turn off the page. Looking forward to picking up book 2.

The character development is excellent. We get to experience a two and a half weeks in the life of Malcom Fox. He works in the complaints, the division that investigates other police. He has just wrapped up a big case, and is given an assignment to investigate Jamie Breck, a detective who might be dirty. He also has to deal with a father in a nursing home and a sister in an abusive relationship. He discovers that there may be more at play than appears on the surface. He quickly finds his career and reputation in danger. The book is an engrossing read. The characters are wonderfully fleshed out, and are as interesting as the story line.
