Re read with my fellow Ilona Andrew Addicts 
 When not sure where to go, barrel forward on pure determination. 
 This is Kate. 
 The more I read about Kate, the more I love her. 
 I just love her. 
 She doesn't do emotional blabla, she is down to earth, snarky, a quick thinker, an even quicker speaker, tough, effective at beating up bad guys..., very practical: 
 "The vampire stared at me, his mouth slack as Ghastek assessed his options. I took a couple of forms from my desk, put them into the vamp's mouth, and pulled them up by their edges. 
 "What are you doing?" Ghastek asked. 
 "My hole puncher broke." 
 "You have no respect for the undead." 
 ...and she wears panties with bows on them. 
 What's there not to love about Kate!?
