rsadelleYou may remember me talking about Carrie Vaughn's first book, Kitty and the Midnight Hour. I said it was good enough that I would read the sequel.
Kitty Goes to Washington was slightly more contained than the first one and it tied up all the loose ends, if rather abruptly in some cases. I was willing to read on to find out what would happen with Kitty and Cormac.
This week I read the third one, Kitty Takes a Holiday, and discovered that, like JKR, Carrie Vaughn learned to write as she continued her series.
Cormac brings Ben (his cousin and both his and Kitty's lawyer) to Kitty after Ben's infected by a werewolf. And then Kitty and Ben hook up. And then Cormac goes to jail for four years.
There is hope, however. Kitty thinks in Cormac's direction, "I want you to take care of me, I wanted to say to him. I wish you were a wolf and could be my alpha." Earlier in the book, she says in the narration that the cabin isn't big enough for three people who aren't all sleeping together. Maybe it's foreshadowing and maybe it's not. I'm not one to let my rational side get in the way of a good fantasy.
Now I'm going to have to buy the next book.

I'd be sure she was going in that direction if it weren't for the fact that Ben and Cormac are related. I suspect that might not fly with the editor. (I could be wrong.)
