Search - Dead and Loving It: Monster Love / Santa Claws / There's No Such Thing as a Werewolf / A Fiend in Need

Don't read all four of the short stories in DEAD AND LOVING IT all at once. Read back-to-back, although a quick read, the stories are all extremely similar--there are even phrases in the stories that have been used, word for word, in the one that came before it.

That said, all four stories deal in some way with werewolves, specifically ones from the Wyndham clan. The stories are short, sexy, and to the point. Although I enjoyed the premise of all of them, the use of the "c" word to describe the female anatomy irked me, so much so that I had to, at times, set the book aside.

However, SANTA CLAWS, MONSTER LOVE, THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A WEREWOLF, and A FIEND IN NEED are all fast-paced stories that die-hard fans of MJD will enjoy. Overall, not a bad book, although the typographical errors and the repetitive phrases (even some entire scenes appeared recycled from the previous short story) keep it from being a true winner.

The stories themselves weren't that bad, but MJD's female characters get VERY annoying because they are ALL THE SAME. It's pretty much just a different package, but same product. That said, I liked knowing more about Garrett and Antonia's relationship as well as more about the Wolves. A must read for fans of the Betsy series and also if you've read Derik's Bane.

More sex and less story than the other books I've read of MJD.

Read it because I had nothing else at the time and glad I did. Good entertaining read.

Funny as heck. A good read to forget your troubles. Got to see what she trouble she gets into next!!
