À propos de cet audio
When cougar-shifter Lily Mason moves to Moonrise, Missouri, she wishes for only three things from the town and its human population...to find a job, to find a place to live, and to live as a human, not a therianthrope.
Lily gets more than she bargains for when a rescue pit bull named Smooshie rescues her from an oncoming car, and it's love at first sight. Thanks to Smooshie, Lily's first two wishes are granted by Parker Knowles, the owner of the Pit Bull Rescue center, who offers her a job at the shelter and the room over his garage for rent.
Lily's new life as an integrator is threatened when Smooshie finds Katherine Kapersky, the local church choir leader and head of the town council, dead in the field behind the rescue center. Unfortunately, there are more suspects than mourners for the elderly town leader. Can Lily keep her less-than-human status under wraps? Or will the killer, who has pulled off a nearly pit-perfect murder, expose her to keep Lily and her dog from digging up the truth?

Lame shifters
This would have been a great book if the main lead didn't act like she was 12.
Repeatedly, we are reminded that she grew up in a town full of shifters but the concept that she had ZERO interaction with regular humans her entire life was laughable. Unless she grew up in some sort of fully gated self-sufficient community, she would have had some sort of interaction. Which makes her stilted interactions with the humans in this new town look quite immature, especially after you factor in her age (28, or maybe older). The fact that she is aware that most humans do not know of shifters and witches, yet in one of her very first conversations with the male lead, he calls someone acting particularly nasty a witch and she proceeds, like a child to blurt out "which coven is she from?" may have seemed endearing or particularly funny to the author, but comes across as stupidity. Why would a human who is not supposed to know of witches know this woman is an actual witch?
The book seems to pick and choose which typical shifter traits are present and which are not on a whim. Typical traits you are familiar with in other shifter books are conveniently missing here. Let's take the fire, she is able to throw a huge man over a bar to get him to escape but then is too tired, and has to shift to take a smaller woman out? Make it make sense.
She falls quite a bit in the book and in one instance injures her hand, but no speedy healing here. Nope. She has to suffer like the rest of us.
Then she is supposed to have quick reflexes, and enhanced speed, yet can't get away from a slight human female wielding a gun. Why is she even a shifter if it only brings with it the ability to sniff scents and enhanced hearing.
This was a 5 hour cozy mystery. Short, yet it still felt like a complete waste of time.
