Book Review of Blood Money (Jane Whitefield, Bk 5)

Blood Money (Jane Whitefield, Bk 5)

Well I definitely enjoyed this 5th book in the series, but I find it strange that this huge chunk of who Jane is supposed to be now (a married society lady??) is barely ever spoken of in these last two books. It could have been never a part of the story arc and wouldn't change anything in regards to who she is, what she does, or how she goes about doing anything. To me it adds nothing to her character because it's never been integrated into much of anything about her. Nothing about her being married feels real or makes me feel tension, though I'm guessing it's supposed to. Remove her husband Carey and any interaction between them from any of the books and it takes nothing away, at least to me...

Anyway, again I've focused on what doesn't make sense to me about these books (and it's the same issue!) and not on what's awesome about them. Jane is an amazing woman! (Maybe that's my problem, she deserves an awesome man! Ack! Let it go!) I love what she does, who she helps, getting to know them and getting to see them have new lives. And I love the action of crisscrossing the US, dodging the bad guys and coming out on top.

Other than the 3rd book, so far this is a really solid, fun, entertaining series and I'm looking forward to what happens next.
