Review: Kitty and the Midnight Hour

Reviewed by Jen
 

Kitty and the Midnight Hour is essentially romance-free, but was an excellent urban fantasy.  The story revolves around Kitty, a radio DJ and submissive werewolf.

We learn that Kitty is fighting to maintain her humanity, but is tied to a pack. She is good friends with the pack-beta, TJ. And is sort-of in love with alpha Carl.  In this world, part of the rights of the alpha is to sleep with anyone in the pack. I digress….

Kitty inadvertently turns her radio show into a call-in advice line for the supernatural… effectively setting up a chain of events that outs them to the outside world. She struggles with outside forces (and some close to her) that want to silence her. And she makes an unlikely friend in a werewolf hunter. (I thought more would develop between them, but hopefully that will happen in later books.)

It was a fast, tight story and I really enjoyed it. There was a (**spoiler**)surprise death toward the end that I didn’t see coming and I wasn’t happy about. But as upset as I was, it didn’t change my overall appreciation for the book. 5 stars.
