Carole Nelson Douglas

I’ve been reading Midnight Louie Feline PI series by Carole Nelson Douglas. “The cat and the King of Clubs”, “Cat in a diamond Dazzle”, “Cat in a Flamingo Fedora”, “Cat in a golden Garland”, “Cat in a Hyacinth Hunt”, “Cat in an Indigo Mood”, “Cat in a Neon Nightmare” from a series of twenty books (so far). Despite all the references to old movies and songs, I enjoyed the series so far. I loved Temple’s character and was dazzled by Max. However Matt’s character is somehow tiring and repetitive. Side characters like Molina, Electra and Aunt Kit are warm and well developed too. As for our feline Sam Spade Mr. Midnight Louie Sq., he is such a lovely kitty I wish he was real and up for adoption.
Another series from Carole Nelson Douglas is “Dalilah Street: Paranormal Investigator”. First book is “Dancing with Werewolves”. An interesting story, however somewhere in the middle of all that action you may feel lost and confused!
And I finally got to read the first book of Love at Stake series: “How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire” by Kerrelyn Sparks. This is the story of Roman and Shanna and the ending was great. So far Ms. Sparks’ score is 2:2 for her finales!
