I've thought cat shifters were the sexiest shifters, the wolves were wily and badass in fights, while the bears were just that...dangerous, cuddly teddy bears. I never once put much thought into the birds until now.Honestly, if I hadn't enjoyed the first book in this series so much, I probably wouldn't have given this particular book a second chance, but I did. Boy, am I glad. Sarah's story broke my heart because I've been there, ostracized by rumors and misinformation. But like any self respecting badass eagle, she was a fighter.And isn't it so true that it's always the ones sitting right under your nose that you tend to overlook? How fortunate for her that mister strong, silent, and fierce noticed her? Yeah, he gave sexy bird shifter a whole new meaning. Yup! I've changed my mind. Birds of prey like eagles, ones who will battle to the death at high altitudes for you, are definitely high on the sexy scale, too.Such a fun, worthwhile read! Not a BAD story.In general, this book had a decent story-line. I gave it three stars because there was very little background information given on the two main characters. We're supposed to believe Cullen has a crushing on Sarah for over six months, and can barely speak to her, yet after he rescues her he seems to speak to her just fine, then has difficulty speaking to her again,then he doesnt again.Not to mention he has a picture of her he had taken and kept in his wallet for months, but it never mentions how (or why) he took a picture of her without her noticing. We don't find out about it till almost the end of the book.The sex scenes were good, but the author didn't seem to spend much time putting detail in to anything else in the story. Sarah challenges the clan leader's wife to a fight that is supposed to be to the death, or if the loser surrenders, she and her family must leave the town forever. The fight is not described at all; it goes from Sarah issuing the challenge to Sarah and Cullen relaxing together later in the evening. There was other parts that seem to drag, they would be thinking about what ifs, how comes, could he or she really love me, etc that I just skipped over it, to get back to the story. Overall I will get the next one cause I like the series.
What do You think about In Plain Sight (2000)?
Whew! *fans self* This is one sexy title. Scorching hot love scenes along with a sexy alpha male.
