The Harlequin is a great name for this book, but it should be the publisher not the title. Ms. Hamilton has gone from a great writer to a writer of cheap romance novels. I remember when Anita Blake was a great necromancer and vampire hunter. Now, she's nothing more than a vessel for the ardeur, which means there's not much more to the book than sex. Granted, there's less in this book in previous books, but nonetheless the sex is a dominant part of her book.

I hate to say it, but I've most of the Anita Blake series, but this is definitely the last one I'll be reading - actually I said that after the last book, but I'm sticking to it this time.

This is where I lost interest in the series. I loved her earlier books where she spent most of her time fighting vamps, wolves, demons,etc. But this is the last book I attempted to read, didn't even make it through the book. She started getting into more of a romance mode than fighter mode and this is where I put the series to rest.

This is the third book in the series I have read, but each book gets better and better. I'm hoping to go back and read the entire series eventually.
