Had to get this one as soon as I noticed that it was on a friend's list and was by Gail Carriger. Great fun short story with lots of plot twists, really interesting characters, and really snappy repartee. Even if I did have to get it from the ADA violator known as Amazon.

them and it becomes apparent that he and the merman are drawn to each other.

Clever and amusing. Prequel shifter M-M romance novella

I really like this little series of romances -- unrelated to most of Carriger's other work and more steamy.

Short but cute story. As always my biggest complaint is that it's too short, lol. I'm greedy I always want more.

It lays the groundwork for the San Andreas Shifters series though and a great introduction to the characters who form this pack.

I loved every second of this. It was adorable, funny, charming, and everything I'd hoped for and come to expect from Gail Carriger. I really wish it had been longer, but I'm very much looking forward to starting the rest of the series.
