I wish this was longer, but this is the feeling we get with the good romances, it's never enough. ( ) This is the fifth book in the Big Bad Wolf series. I have enjoyed all the books and was really looking forward to this one. Charlie Adhara did not disappoint. Another five star book. Cooper Dayton and Oliver Park are work partners in a secret government agency that investigates crimes by and against werewolves. By the time of this book, they are also engaged to be married. This is not a stand-alone book. You must read the other books in order to fully appreciate and enjoy this book. There's so much legacy that carries over from the previous books, such as the curiosity over Cooper's AQ score (which is finally revealed!) and the supporting characters who are crucial in every story but particularly in this one, and this story wouldn't be possible without the lead up that comes from the other books. By the time of this book, Cooper has developed somewhat of a reputation in the werewolf world, despite being human, and that comes into play in a big way in this book. I refuse to give spoilers, so there's a limit to how much I can say. Suspense and mystery are a huge part of these books, and it's done incredibly well. The author has a gift for it. But once again, the humour is the standout for me. I love Cooper's witty lines. '“You wanna come?” Sophie offered. “I can try to finagle you some tickets. We could wrap you in a feather boa and call it a joint bachelor party.” “I would rather you wrap me in boa constrictor and call time of death,” Cooper said, “than attend a haunted Halloween gala, my god.” Sophie turned to Park. “You know, it’s never too late to call off this engagement. You’re a catch, you’ll find someone.” Park sighed. “I was cursed by an old witch to find him charming.” “That’s some dark magic,” Sophie said,' '“I just want you to get the wedding you want. Whatever that may be.” “Okay,” Cooper said. “I appreciate it. And if I ever wake as an aging silent film star obsessed with her past, I might take you up on that. But in the meantime, I’m more likely to want to get married in the sea lion pool, corpse included, than here in this building.” “It’s your lack of hyperbole that really made me fall in love with you. Wrote half my vows about it.”' 'But that didn’t change the fact that one of them was shedding walls to reveal literal fluffy goodness and the other was shedding walls to reveal...well. The person Cooper had always been, he supposed. Three percent less of a dick? Five on a good day?' '“That’s the third hug of the day, you know,” he said, curiosity burning in his expression. “My diary entry tonight is going to be rife with exclamation marks and hearts.”' Seriously, how can you not want to read these books based just on those quotes alone? I adore the humour in these books. Go and buy the whole series and read them all. You won't regret it. This is probably my favourite MM paranormal series and I'm glad that Adhara has kept writing it. This was a great addition to the series. The mystery was more interesting than the last book's and there were less characters and personal drama to take away from the main plot that they're detectives. The wedding plans seemed a little ridiculous - Cooper obviously has a lot of internal issues that don't really seem to have an origin besides his own head - and Park seemed a bit more meek than in past books, but overall I really enjoyed it. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)
Agent Cooper Dayton never thought anything could be harder than solving murders. Until he had to plan a wedding. After taking down an old adversary, Agent Cooper Dayton of the Bureau of Special Investigations has earned a break. Not that planning a wedding to his sexy shifter partner, Oliver Park, is necessarily stress free, but it's better than worrying about the ominous warning, delivered months ago, that Cooper's life is in danger. When he's dragged to an event by his family, Cooper braces for an awkward evening, but instead finds himself in the middle of an ugly feud between Park's ex and a rebel pack leader. What was supposed to be a quick outing turns into a full-blown murder investigation after the pack leader ends up dead, Park's ex goes missing, and Cooper and Park are sent a series of disturbing wedding gifts that are somehow connected to it all. The list of potential suspects is long, and with the bodies piling up, Cooper must turn to the one person he trusts the least: the villain he's already put behind bars once and who has nothing to lose by lying and everything to gain if Cooper is out of the picture-for good.
