OMG. This was sooooo silly. So very, very silly.
I didn’t even really believe that they were in any way “in love” and the whole military thing could have been a really great plot, but nothing really happens.
Very disappointing.
Noah Baker never wanted to betray The Others. But if his military commanders want him to covertly investigate a Lupine scientist—whose extraordinary research on sensory perception in werewolves could be used to develop werewolf-sharp senses in human soldiers—Noah must oblige. Even if it means deceiving the woman he desires the most.

Book sixty-three: The Demon You Know
The Demon You Know (2007)
Christine Warren
Rating: 2/5
A little boring in parts. Female lead was annoying. Mystery wasn’t that enthralling.
As a research grunt at a local television station, Abby Baker tends to blend into the background, which is where she’s most comfortable. But when she ends up being the last resort to cover a hot story, Abby discovers a whole new side to her personality when she is possessed by a fiend—a type of rogue demon. Suddenly everyone wants a piece of her. And now the demon Rule—also a hunter of his own kind who have gone astray—is Abby’s only hope…
Meanwhile, the Others—vampires, werewolves, and witches, oh my!—have come out of the supernatural closet and the rest of the humans are all aflutter. Mischief is afoot in the demon realm, and Rule knows that Abby is key to figuring it all out before the fiends tip the fragile balance between the newly-discovered Others and the humans over into an epic battle. Now it’s up to two lost souls to make love, not war…..

Book forty-one: Wolf at the Door
Christine Warren
Rating: 2.25/5
Okay, I guess.
I have read the second in this series (not realising it was the second of course), She’s No Fairy Princess and I thought the mystery element wasn’t as strong here.
Sullivan Quinn didn’t travel 3,000 miles from his native Ireland and his wolf pack just to chase rabidly after the most delectable quarry he’s ever seen. Quinn is in America on a mission—to warn his Other brethren of a shadowy group willing to use murder and mayhem to bring them down. But one whiff of this Foxwoman’s delicious honeysuckle fragrance and he knows that she is more than a colleague or a conquest…she is his mate.
Anthropologist Cassidy Poe is a world-renowned authority on social interaction, but the overpowering desire she feels around Quinn defies every ounce of her expertise. Working by his side to uncover The Others’ enemies poses risks she never expected—to her own safety, to those she loves, and to her heart, as every encounter with Quinn proves more blissfully erotic than the last…Now, with no one to trust but each other, Quinn and Cassidy face a foe that’s edging closer every day, threatening to destroy the life they’ve always known, and the passion they’ve just discovered…The whole “someone has kidnapped some vampire’s girlfriend and is threatening to expose the ‘other races’” plot wasn’t that interesting. Nor did it really take up that much space within the book – or the characters thoughts. Not really.
It was still okay though. I’d read the next in the series, which I think came out this month… The Demon You Know.
