My four-sentence or less take on the plot: Kita ran away from her pack (or whatever a group of cats is called) a long time ago because of...reasons...but somehow also manages to get bitten by a vampire, becoming a vampire cat. There is also a love triangle, more or less. This book involves vampire politics, so if you find that annoying, avoid this book.Rating: 7What worked: Kita got less annoying in this book as she started to make better choices. It's extremely well-written IMO, which helps a lot. What didn't: Again, the author hints at terms and relationships but doesn't actually explain them. I would love more information about the hierarchy of shifters or some more information about the vampires but we don't get it. And where was Bobby for most of this book? Shouldn't he go back to his pregnant wife at some point?I think the series just ends at this point, which is annoying, as it's obviously not where the author meant for the series to end. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!! For the record, I am going to say that I have not read the first book in this series. I got Twice Dead as a freebie on Amazon. Kaylana Price has an ability to make something that has been written about time and again seem fresh and new again. The idea of a shifter, turned into a vampire, is one that meshes the two genres of horror into something dysfunctional yet perfect in the same breath. I liked the tension that accumulated within the novel regarding Kita and her struggles with the shifter part of her, and her reluctance but eventual acceptance to finish things off in the vampire fashion. Some of the relationships, which I'm sure were explained in the first installation of the series, were a little lost on me. I understand the tense relationship between Kita and Nathaniel, and it makes me want to pull my hair out at how they seem to balk at one another after every turn. I did like the hierarchy that she set up, and the way that they enforce vampire order in her world. It's something that, at its basest roots, sound legitimate. If you like vampire books, thrown in with drama and a mystery, this one will definitely throw you for a loop. There were some unexpected twists and turns, and I'm sure I would have given it 5 stars had I actually known some of the more obscure details that were implied, just not outright explained, as they may have been in book 1.
