Publisher's Summary

When homicide detective Dexter J. Daley’s testimony helps send his partner away for murder, the consequences—and the media frenzy—aren’t far behind. He soon finds himself sans boyfriend, sans friends, and, after an unpleasant encounter in a parking garage after the trial, he’s lucky he doesn’t find himself sans teeth. Dex fears he’ll get transferred from the Human Police Force’s Sixth Precinct, or worse, get dismissed. Instead, his adoptive father—a sergeant at the Therian-Human Intelligence Recon Defense Squadron otherwise known as the THIRDS—pulls a few strings, and Dex gets recruited as a Defense Agent.

Dex is determined to get his life back on track and eager to get started in his new job. But his first meeting with Team Leader Sloane Brodie, who also happens to be his new jaguar Therian partner, turns disastrous. When the team is called to investigate the murders of three HumaniTherian activists, it soon becomes clear to Dex that getting his partner and the rest of the tightknit team to accept him will be a lot harder than catching the killer - and every bit as dangerous.

Waste of a credit I can’t get back :(

I’m not sure if it was the book or the narrator or combination of the two but this book was boring. The story was absolutely predictable I guessed who was behind everything pretty much as soon as they were introduced and they started talking crap. It was so clear with all the little clues, but they talked around the obvious answer, lol, this elite team didn’t clue into anything! I’m assuming the author did this to further the storyline so for me the story started to lag. The romance was meh, there didn’t seem to be any real connection just an attraction so it was more lust, not romance or love. I started skipping parts and an hour before the end when one of the characters (I don’t want to spoil it for everybody ) comes and gives the other character who he’s been hating for years, food, my first thought was really?? Two seconds ago you were suspicious, not two days prior he was talking shit about you, yet you eat food he brings to your house?

My apologies, but the narrator was not good. no infections to his voice so the story was flat. Ash’s voice was weird. So other than the female character, I’m assuming that’s supposed to be Spanish, other than her accent, other accents and voices were off. The British accent was the worse, it was absolutely horrendous!!!! if it didn’t say that the medical officer was supposed to be British I would have no idea why the narrator was talking that way. Not sure if Daly’s character issues were due to the narrator or the story but he came across very immature. To be honest, so did his brother.

This entire book could have been summed up in a one hour story. there was no mystery, there was no romance, the sex scenes were mediocre. it wasn’t fast paced, it wasn’t exciting, it was just a bunch of characters thrown together and in this version shifters need to have a recovery period after each shift. Really??? you’re vicious when shifted but after you shift back you’re a weak human and need your human partner to give you energy bars and tend to you post shift? makes no sense whatsoever.
