The narrator is so annoying in the beginning. But he does redeem himself.
"A lifestyle choice is being a Republican or a Protestant, Mom. Being gay isn't a lifestyle and it isn't a choice. It's who I am."See that? I put together an articulate sentence. I promise you, I was an actual lawyer and I talked to people for a living. I know my behavior so far has made you wonder, but hopefully I'm redeeming myself. Well said.
Don't count this as a review. It's just notes/quotes and abuse of the search option.
Bums begging on the street do not ring to the tune of a Mozart orchestra, and unfortunately for the team of tired undercover FBI agents tailing Antonio de la Vega, their target was aware of that particular bit of random information.Señor de la Vega had a nasty plane accident down in the Caribbean,” Burns informed him quietly. “Seems the mechanic working on his plane had some broken fingers no one knew about, didn't get all the nuts and bolts tight enough. Get in the damn car and let it take you home. I want you in DC by noon.” “You and your new assignments can go fuck yourselves, Dick,” Ty grumbled. “My fingers hurt. And the important one won't stand up by itself.” “So hold them all up and call it a flock,” Burns advised in mild amusement. Ty snorted. “Flock of birds. That's funny,” he muttered disconsolately to himself as he stared at the government vehicle stubbornly. “Ty,” Burns sighed, his voice taking on the tone of the mentor he had once been. “Don't toss everything you love out the window, hmm? You've tied up your loose ends, and you get to torture your new partner tomorrow. Noon. I'll see you then,” he said before ending the call
It was the mental aspects of Ty's abilities that Zane pondered almost gleefully as they moved.
“Your life needs an airbag. I swear, Anastagio, you should have come equipped when you were born.” Just then Dante leaned against him, brow between his shoulder blades for a moment, so tentatively Griff held his breath. His voice was almost sheepish. “Nah. Everyone knows I was born defective. They didn't install you until later.”
I love this novel! Maybe because it was a guilty pleasure - I read it when I was supposed to be studying for an exam and to look at books from afar.
I liked the setting - the casino, and the characters - Shane, Rita...I'll get back to fill in the others.
I loved the paranormal element. So cool.
And, last but not least, the sex was hot!
I'm pretty sure I had something written as a review, but since I accidentally deleted LUl from my books, it's gone.
Payne is cool. Manny is okay.
V is an idiot with many, many problems. And Butch is getting it regularly.
Yeah, he was trying to ditch the ultrareserved shit, but he didn't want anyone to know how far he and Butch had gone. That was private.
The Qhuay angst is... angsty. They don't even talk to each other. And that redhead... Broke my heart time and again.
“You are a fool.” “No. I used to be one.” “I would beg to differ.” You see, I agree with Saxton on that one. Qhuinn is a fool. Man up already!
Reread: when I feel like self-torturing myself (preferably soon before Lover At Last).
