REDEEMED!!!!!!!!!!!! 
 I totally never use the word "totally", since I consider it rather juvenile but this book totally redeemed the previous one. There, I used it thrice in one sentence. I had decided not to read this one given how disappointed I was with 
 but I am sooooo glad I changed my mind. 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 This most recent book picks up where ends. Charlie, having bound Reyes in his corporeal form, is consuming caffeine like there's no tomorrow in an attempt to keep from falling prey to Reyes more carnal side. In this installment Charlie Davidson, private investigator/sassy bi@#$ extraordinaire, teams up with her rag tag team of comrades to investigate the death of Reyes Farrow's (aka Son of Satan, Rey'aziel) father and clear Reyes' name, delving headfirst into the disappearance of a physicians's wife, and the poisoning of the Rottweilers guarding the mental asylum the dearly departed savant Rocket haunts. Davidson earns her investigatory stripes by finding the physician's wife, uncovering her husband's role in said disappearance and in the deaths of his first wife, her mother, and the poisoning of the second wife's sister. Armed with a new slew of witty dialogue, Charlie discovers Reyes' dead father is anything but dead and gone when said father breaks into her apartment, tortures her and almost kills her partner/tail, Garrett, and finally discovers how to un-bind Reyes. And all on about 15 minutes sleep. It's been a busy 14 days for Ms. Davidson in that while she is busy uncovering un-dead and unlamented abusive fathers, missing wives, murderous physicians and dog killers, she also discovers the identity of Mistress Marigold, a certain Sister Mary Elizabeth who "overhears" angelic communication. The good sister informs Charlie that her privileged communication has revealed that Charlie and Reyes are magnets for each other and implies Charlie still doesn't know the extent to her own powers, a sentiment that Reyes has repeatedly told her throughout the other books, and that Charlie will soon be visited by three ghosts, sorry I couldn't help myself. Actually, its more like she'll soon be gifted her very own Guardian angel. 
 Can't wait for the next installment. (hide spoiler)]
