Synopsis from Goodreads.com
Kitty Norville's established herself as a DJ, with her midnight talk show Kitty's Midnight Hour, been forced into revealing herself to the nation as a werewolf and testified to the Senate about the supernatural denizens of the USA, but now it's time to lay low in a remote Colorado cabin and work on her memoirs. Her plans get derailed when sexy werewolf hunter Cormac Bennett shows up with her lawyer, Ben O'Farrell, who's been bitten and is about to turn into a werewolf himself. But Kitty's hideaway is neither as peaceful nor as secret as she hopes, for barbed-wire crosses start showing up all over the place, and, worse, gruesome animal sacrifices are left at her door. Someone wants them gone, and it's up to Kitty and Cormac to find out who's stalking them - before someone gets really hurt . .
My review:
Another good read in this series - I'm loving this one at the minute. I love Kitty's character - she's strong yet caring. And she always manages to get herself in (and out) of trouble wherever she goes!
In this one, Kitty is taking a well deserved break from her radio show and life in general and rents out a house in the middle of nowhere. She is supposed to be writing her memoirs but cannot find the inspiration to get going on it. Soon enough trouble finds its way into Kitty's life and someone keeps leaving dead bunnies and bloody crosses on her doorstep, which are soon followed by barbed wire crosses stuck into the ground around her cabin. She has no idea who is doing this or why.
One night, just as her nerves are finally breaking down even more, Cormac appears in her driveway with a bitten and torn up Ben in his Jeep. They had been out hunting and Ben got attacked by a werewolf. Kitty helps him cope with his new self and teaches him what she can.
Kitty is also accused of slaughtering a whole herd of cows, which she physically couldn't have done by herself. No one has any idea of what is going on at all.
Together all 3 try to work out the mystery of the bunnies, skinned dogs (which get hung up on the trees in the driveway) and crosses and Cormac contacts an old acquaintance. Tony solves the mystery and sets about clearing the curse, when a skinwalker in the guise of a wolf attacks the group and Cormac kills her before it kills Kitty. Unfortunately for Cormac the local sheriff was on the scene as he was part of the group trying to curse Kitty and arrests Cormac for murder.
Ben and Kitty drive all over the country trying to get evidence to support Cormac's case but no-one will help except for the skinwalker's sister. Unfortunately the courts are not up to believing in skinwalkers yet, so Cormac is found guilty, with a 4 year sentence!
When I read the title of this book I knew Kitty wouldn't get much of a holiday, but I certainly didn't expect some of the events - like Ben being bitten by a werewolf. Kitty develops a relationship with him, but is it for real or is it just the werewolf instinct in them both that brings them together? Will she finish her book? Will she go back to her radio show or has she decided that she's had enough of being in the limelight? I'll have to read the next one to find out!
