Wolf at the Door

Last night's final page before bed was the end of Christine Warren's Wolf at the Door. This was my first read by Christing Warren and it definitely won't be my last.
independent Foxwoman Cassidy Poe is an anthropologist studiously avoiding her Nana's attempts to drag her into the family tradition of politics on the Council of Others. When Cassidy is summoned by the council for her "expertise" on cultures and small cults, she not only has to try to slip out of her Nana's plans for her, but also away from the hot gaze of Sullivan Quinn.
Quinn is visiting America on business as the guth of his Ireland clan, but he can't focus on the work at hand with the sweet scent of Cassidy Poe calling to all of his instincts.
Together, Quinn and Cassidy must find and stop the dangerous cult threatening the safety of the Others. The kidnapping of several prominent members of the Other society only adds to the urgency, but there is much more going on than anyone has expected or knows how to handle.

Christine Warren has a wonderful new voice. Her offbeat humor is something that will be well appreciated by everyone who's just a little twisted - or a lot. Her romance is hot - sex scenes are several pages long and describe everything from foreplay to cuddling with careful detail.
This book revolves around a Lupine and a Foxwoman, but the Other community has a very wide range of preternatural beings. Every type of shapeshifter, including Silkies, witches, Fae, demons, vampires, Brownie...and a few things I'll admit I had to look up. It reminds me of the worlds Angela Knight creates where you'll be reading about a werewolf, but get a glimpse through a window at the rest of their environment.
I'm looking forward to seeing how this series progresses. The book has a wonderful ending, but there is definitely more to come. Hopefully the next book will have another Irish hero, loved the accent!
