    About this audiobook

    Annie Darling - owner of the mystery bookstore, Death on Demand - prefers fictional crimes as opposed to the real things. But in one tragic week, two acts of violence shake the island community of Broward’s Rock. First, a beloved doctor is found shot dead, seemingly by his own hand. Only days later, a local artist is arrested after his wife is murdered. Convinced her brother did not commit suicide, the doctor’s sister turns to Annie and her husband, Max, for help. She has found a cryptic sketch her brother drew, linking him with the murdered woman. With the police considering both cases as good as closed, it’s up to Annie and Max to sort through a rogues’ gallery of suspects to see if someone is trying to frame the artist.

      Wolf at the Door was a decent read. It started out slowly, but picked up the pace half-way through. It's basically about a group of fanatics who call themselves the Light of Truth, threatening to unveil the paranormal world of The Others. The Others are trying to find them before it's too late. I thought that the romance between Quinn (a lupine) and Cassidy (a foxwoman) was pretty bland. They were fine as characters, though they could have been a little more developed. I felt that there was no spark between them and I was told they feel in love, rather than shown. The plot was decent enough and I'll read the next one in the series. 3.5 stars

      I just discovered this series/author, and I love it! Irish werewolf diplomat comes to NYC with an agenda to put to the Council of Others. But his nose sends him on a chase and he can't give up. Turns out the one attached to the scent is a foxwoman with a formidable grandmother, and he soon finds out that fate has decreed that she is his mate. Add in some intrigue, other shifters, vampires, et al, a kidnapping or five, and you have a punny snarktastic fun read.

      Wolf at the Door
      4 Stars

      Synopsis: Werewolf Sullivan Quinn travels to New York City to warn the members of the council of Others that the secret of their existence is about to be revealed to humanity. He never suspects that he will meet his mate and his match in Cassidy Poe, a Foxwoman and an anthropologist. Soon Quinn and Cassidy must work together against a foe that seeks to destroy everything they know and love.

      Review: A steamy romance with witty banter and laugh-out-loud moments.

      This is a well-written and light-hearted read with detailed characterization. Quinn is simply gorgeous and has the cutest Irish mannerisms. Cassidy is intelligent and spunky, and their chemistry sizzles.

      The focus of the book is mainly on the romance and it is a pity that most of the author’s efforts were put into developing the main characters backgrounds and motivations rather than investing in the world building. The secondary cast includes a variety of supernatural characters from various mythologies, and while they are intriguing in their own right, they are not sufficiently developed. I can only assume that some of them will make appearances in later installments of the series.

      The conspiracy plot is the weakest point as, despite its potential, it never manages to get off the ground and the final confrontation is rushed. While the ending is not exactly a cliffhanger, it is a little up-in-the-air and lackluster. In my opinion, the book lacks an epilogue in which Quinn takes Cassidy home to “meet the parents”.

      On the whole, Wolf at the Door is thoroughly entertaining and I look forward to continuing with the series.

      I loved this author when she was writing for Ellora's Cave. Her books are funny and steming hot. She provides a good plot that is well written and pretty error free. I love her characters and their interaction with each other. This is the first book she has written for a NYC publisher and it lives up to the books she has previously written. There is also a good mystery and a plot twist that will probably play out in future books. I highly recommend this author.

      I've read this twice before and never seem to remember if I've read it or not. Irish wolf find US fox, and chases her around the party. Much politics ensues, and they are locked in. Feels dated even if it's only from 2008. Not bad, but clearly not memorable.
    • 3/5
      I rather enjoyed this book. It was my first Christine Warren and I was pleasantly surprised. It was an easy read and moved quickly. Of late most of the books that I've delved into have been a lot of sex with a little story. This one was more story with just a touch of steam. The story was good and I'm looking forward to She's No Faerie Princess, that I'm starting right now.
    • 4/5
      not my favorite...storyline started off really slow but it slowly builds.....Her characters are fun, and funny, and real people...was happy the lead character didn't have brogue.

      Quinn is from an Ireland Pack, he was brought to America to attend a meeting of the others. To make a decision as to whether it is essential for their world to be unveiled. He had it all mapped out except for the part including a fox woman named Cassidy Poe. They find that they are already under attack from a religious group, and obstacles of whom to trust. Now trusting only either other, and their attraction brewing they must handle their mystery group, before they find them first.

      First book in the Others series. I like the world better than the stories - the sex is very explicit which I find less interesting, and the obstacles (some of them, the immovable ones) are either ignored or deus-ex-machina dealt with. A human marrying an immortal, especially when the immortal is explicitly said to mate 'for life' - there are problems there that can't be easily solved, but the author just skates over them (either the human's life is automatically extended, or the immortal says (to himself, not his mate) that he'll die along with her (gender distribution correct for these two books (first and third)). Fluffy.). But the world is great - urban fantasy with hidden Others, the first book they decide to unveil, in the second they're in negotiations, in the third book they've just unveiled and humans are dealing (badly) with these facts. I'd really like to see some non-romance books set in this universe - honestly, there's some good stories in here somewhat obscured by two peoples' sudden obsession with each other. Oh yeah, and they definitely illustrate the First Law of Romance: if the sex is fantastic, it's true love which will overcome all obstacles. If it's not so good, it's with the wrong partner. Pffff.
