Spider's Bite by Jennifer EstepMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The first thing I loved was how bad ass Gin was. And I didn't feel like she was in a cocky way. She knew what her strengths and weaknesses were so she used her strengths to get the job done. She was smart. She knew who she could survive against and she knew who not to mess with.
Donovan was great. It was too funny the way Gin made that mmmm sound every time she thought about him. At first, I didn't understand why she didn't tell him the truth about his old partner from the beginning but then she explained it. Because of the situation, Donovan was so conflicted about his feelings for Gin. I loved how their chemistry grew throughout this first book. Donovan only viewed people around him as bad or good, black or white. Gin and I both see life as shades of grey. That's how I know that shades of grey exist everywhere. When I first meet people I do put them into a category even though I know they won't stay there. They can't. Gin said, "Emotions were for those too weak to turn them off." That's how I feel I have to be around certain people who play off of others emotions and feed on them. Someone close to me is just like that.
Fin was hilarious. The brother/sister relationship that he shared with Gin had me laughing all the time as I read. Even though the romance didn't really progress as the lust did between Gin and Donovan, there was enough action to keep me into the story. The plot was great. I somewhat knew who might be the bad guy but I was 100% sure. The story kept me guessing and analyzing all the time.
