 Question: 
 What is a dumber, richer, fashion savvy version of a Sookie Stackhouse? 
 Answer: 
 Well, a MacKayla Lane of course! 
 MacKayla, A.K.A. Mac, is such a blatant rip off of Sookie that it's embarrassing. Let us review the

 That's not to say I didn't enjoy the book, cause I did. Mac's idiocy did get on my nerves but having grown up on Chick Lit. I can ignore it. 
 Sookie rip off and Mac stupidity aside, the book was fast paced and contained some promising ideas for future books with plenty of mysteries and secrets to unravel. It's no where close to a 5 star though and I would not grace it with 4 stars either. I have high hopes for the future books. Jericho intrigues me and I'm looking forward to exploring Moning's take on the Fae's world. 
 Average start for a Paranormal series.
