If you are looking for a fast-paced urban fantasy with a kick-ass heroine, a metaphysical love triangle, and a lot of action and humor, you might want to check out Something Secret This Way Comes by Sierra Dean. This is the first book in the Secret McQueen series, which follows the adventures of a half-vampire, half-werewolf bounty hunter who works for the vampire council of New York City.
Secret McQueen has a complicated life. She was abandoned at birth by her werewolf mother, who wanted to protect her from her father’s clan. She was raised by her human grandmother, who taught her how to fight and survive. She was hired as a teen by the vampire council, who saw her potential as a rogue killer. She is a part of both worlds, but belongs to neither. She has no friends, no family, and no love life. She only has her job, which she does with skill and sarcasm.
But everything changes when an enemy from her past returns with her death on his mind. He is a powerful vampire who wants revenge for the death of his sire, whom Secret killed years ago. He is also the leader of a cult that worships an ancient evil that threatens to destroy the world. Secret has to stop him before he unleashes his dark plans, but she can’t do it alone. She needs the help of the werewolves, who claim her as one of their own. And she needs the help of two sexy alpha males, who both seem to have a claim on her heart.
Lucas Rain is the king of the East Coast werewolves, who believes that Secret is his mate. He is strong, charming, and protective, but he also has a temper and a possessive streak. Desmond is his second-in-command, who also feels a connection with Secret. He is calm, smart, and loyal, but he also has a secret of his own. Secret is torn between them, and she doesn’t know who to trust or who to choose.
Something Secret This Way Comes is a thrilling and entertaining read that will keep you hooked from the first page to the last. The plot is full of twists and turns, the characters are well-developed and likable, and the writing is witty and engaging. The book also has a spicy seasoning of sex and violence, so be warned if you are not into that. The book is not perfect, though. Some readers might find the love triangle cliché and annoying, some might find the heroine too reckless and stubborn, and some might find the ending too abrupt and cliffhanger-ish. But overall, the book is a great introduction to a promising series that will appeal to fans of urban fantasy, paranormal romance, and action-adventure.
