Willow Knightley has just been through it
with her ex-mooch of a boyfriend. But sadly, he’s just the latest in a
long string of men (starting at birth) who didn’t treat her right.
She decides her only recourse is to give up on men forever.
The
problem is, her friend/acquaintance/one-time bodyguard, member of the
Nightingale Investigations & Security team, Gabriel Stark, has
targeted her as His One.
Gabe’s been through it at the hands of women too, so he knows exactly what he wants.
And he wants Willow.
Willow
states her case against them being an us, but she doesn’t count on the
fact that not only does Gabe love a challenge, he lives for them.
Up against an onslaught from a man who rinses his own whiskers out of the sink, Willow might not stand a chance.
But
then, while the Angels are trying to figure out what’s got one of their
informants very jittery, she gets a hint that there are demons in
Gabe’s history, and she has to know.
The bets are on…
And luck favors a Stark.
Bad Medicine took me back to the days when I started reading the OG Rock Chicks series.
I mean, another Stark man claiming his woman? Hells yes!
I still haven't gotten around to reading the first 2 Avenging Angels books, however this takes up where Tenderfood ended, so I have a lot of what's going on, but missing a few of the nuances.
Like, how Willow got to be how she is today.
However, that did not affect my reading or enjoyment of Bad Medicine at all (and it was a good reminer to pull my finger out and get back to books 1 and 2!)
To me, Bad Medicine was a lot more character driven that the book I had read, Tenderfoot. Willow and Gabe (sigh, man oh man those Stark men do something to me!) Their burgeoning relationship took centre stage, whilst the Angels and their case were a lot more of a side story this time.
Which I would have liked either way, but I loved getting to know the MCs more.
Plus, being a Stark means that we got a lot more of the OG men and women to read about.
After that ending, I neeed the next book, STAT!
Thank you Kristen and team for my advanced copy
