This wasn't as engaging as the first two books. I've grown quite fond of Blackthorn and her partner Grim, even though Grim seemed more like a woman's fantasy man than a real person. Compared to the first two books, this is a bit more feel-good, and I suppose it parallels Blackthorn's own emotional healing. I would read this just to complete the Dynamic Duo's saga, but if this had been the first book, I doubt I would have continued the series.
