looking through the reviews there is a lot of mixed thoughts on this book!!

I must admit.....it is one of those you have to 'get through' before things start to get better.

this book is basically setting it up for the next few - characters, the roles they play, ...you just need to get thru the first bits....

.....which tbh I found pretty ok to read. wasn't boring and I enjoyed finding about Tony and his wolf /Family status. Sue was a surprise as she's not (in your mind when Tony describes her) but makes a nice change from "her eyes sparkled the most beautiful ice blue, hair cascading in flowing golden locks. Her body was amazing and firm in all the right places.."...... you get my drift!!!

I'm on the 3rd book now so this is retrospective review which I have to say I'm glad I waited to write the review otherwise it may have sounded a little disappointed like some of the others.
.I'll keep reading until the "skim read" hits!

This was a story that was quite different than I was expecting to find. Unlike most times when I go to my local library, I only had a couple books on my list, because I wanted to just pick a couple random books to try out, and I grabbed this book up. I was intrigued by the set up, the heroine going to the hero to get him to kill her. I didn’t know why until I started reading, and when you learn I didn’t know why it was so necessary she wanted to kill herself, but her family is pretty crazy (literally), I mean some of the actions her mothers takes is outrageous and she should be put in a mental hospital, just so she can have some attention. The whole suicide over idiotic family members, is why my rating is lower than a 5, because I just couldn’t understand that her reasons were valid enough, but if I had a family like this one, I might think differently. I think what I admired most about this story was seeing how the hero and heroine develop a relationship with each other. This story was different in the way that it was from the hero’s POV. That was quite different, it is quite rare to see that. At times it threw me off, because I am used to reading third person or if its in 1st person its from the heroine’s POV. The paranormal element in this story is there, but it isn’t super strong like I was expecting it to be. In fact, in many ways it seemed to lean more toward a contemporary romance than a paranormal one. Both characters had their own unique set of handling situations, and boy was Tony great in how he handles Sue. He is patient and understanding, but at the same times doesn’t allow her to lean on him to much for help with her family, he tries to make her realize that she has to stand up to them. Toward the later half of the story, the plot accelerates and adds a bit of suspense/mystery aspects to the mix and it really gets intense. The ending was better than I expected, I was hoping it wouldn’t be a huge cliffhanger since the next book involves this pair too. But it was a short and sweet ending, I did feel it was a bit too abrupt for my tastes, but I am thinking it might have been done on purpose. But overall a fantastic story that kept me fascinated from page one, and now I can’t wait to get hold of book 2!!

After reading some of the comments, I was hesitant to read this book. The main female is a bit stupid even though she is portrait as being intelligent, and that being her "leading attribute". Honestly is wasn't bad, it's a quick read and kinda cute with some tear jerker scenes. The story has made me curious enough to read the next book, but I don't have a dying compulsion to do so. Give the first chapter a chance and if you like it you do and if you don't, well at least you know.

Happy hunting

I like sue's and Tony's relationship. The assassin angel was interesting. The book could get a little boring and repetitive at times. The main thing that redeemed it was the action at the end

I feel like I should like this but the characters are just impossible to connect to, I feel like I'm reading a dead fish.

This started out so promising, with a really great premise: a professional assassin has a potential client who has a strange request – the person she wants killed is herself. Add to that the fact that the assassin is also a werewolf, and you’re ready for a rip-roarin’ good time! Except that’s not really what you get. The story is narrated by Tony, the assassin, and I just didn’t like his tone. I found him to be flippant and overly emotional, when I really wanted him to be hard and cool. And if the werewolf stuff isn’t enough for you, there’s some extra weird metaphysical stuff at the end that really makes no sense at all. I generally enjoy paranormal/urban fantasies, but this was a little too much for me. I’m not interested in finishing this series.

Assassins, werewolves, and the Mafia? This book had a couple of my big buzzwords and yet it ended up falling a little flat for me. There was nothing wrong about it, it just didn't blow my socks off. I will give it props for having a clear and positive discussion breaking down some of the initial negative reactions towards a bisexual character (especially as this book was first published back in 2004 were positive rep for bisexuality was less mainstream from what I remember)

Overall, not a bad book, just kinda middle of the road.

It was however, interesting reading a romance book written in first person from the male love interest.
