Review--No Werewolves Allowed by Cheyenne McCray (Book 15 in Reading Challenge)

As a half-human, half-Drow private eye, Nyx is the go-to girl for tracking Demons in the night. So when several of New York City's Werewolves go missing, Alpha Werewolf Dmitri Beketov hires Nyx for the job. But this time, she must leave the dark alleys and bright lights behind...

Nyx's sixth sense tells her that life in the slow lane is a lot deadlier than it appears. Though she usually prefers to work solo, with this case she's going to need all the help she can get. Enter Detective Adam Boyd: he's watching her back, but is this human too sexy for his--and her--own good? Meanwhile, a powerful, malevolent force is exterminating paranorms and "unworthy" humans alike...and Nyx, still trying to get a foothold in her new surroundings, finds herself facing danger at every turn.

Cheyenne McCray's No Werewolves Allowed pretty much picks up where Demons Not Included ended, where Nyx is about to take on a case from the Werewolf alpha to help him find missing members of his pack. One a pregnant woman and two young children. After a rocky start, Nyx is determined to find them, but as her boss tells her, she can't do this alone and brings in help, help that she isn't too thrilled about.

In come the newbies, new characters that is that are paranorms. Including a Shadow Shifter, a Doppler, and a Shifter. These three were quite interesting characters and they were surprising as well. Ice, the Shifter, is the annoying sort, Joshua, the Shadow Shifter is a mysterious sort, and Angel the Doppler is one fierce female who is not meant to be trifled with by any means necessary. She can kick serious butt when she has to.

Nyx, the three newbies and Nyx's partner, Olivia head out into the woods to help the Werewolves with their missing persons case and find themselves with quite a bit of trouble, for they don't really know who the enemy is until they meet the enemy. The enemy is a surprise somewhat, but the character type isn't, I've seen it before in other books and yet the manner of the character type is always different in levels of degree. I liked the way McCray dealt with this issue. I don't want to say what it is, it's not really spoilery, but I don't want to take any chances.

The action was well paced as well yet again and I loved it from beginning to end. Just when you're wondering when a clue or something will come about, BAM! The action takes off and does not stop for anyone! Nyx finds herself deeper into all kinds of trouble and her life and the lives of others are on the line and if she makes one wrong move, someone may die.
 

Amidst all the action there is still time for romance. That being said I won't go any further because of the cliffhanger from Demons Not Included, I don't want to spoil anything yet again, but there is definitely romance involved and it totally rocked!

Overall it was a fabulous read! And I guess because we know the title of book 4, Zombies Sold Separately, it makes it all the fun when Nyx keeps saying how much she hates zombies. Really looking forward to that one! But until then, next we have Vampires Not Invited which promises to be good, because there's vampires! Evil ones most likely, but still gotta love the vamp! That one releases November 30, 2010 so it's slowly making its way around the corner for the holidays!

Overall I give the book 5/5 stars! An excellent read and one I highly recommend!
