BLURB:
Detective Elwood Q. Chase has ninety-nine problems, and the unexpected revelation that his partner is a god is only one of them.
Chase has been in love with Benjamin Merrick for years and has resigned himself to a life of unrequited pining. But when they run afoul of a strange cult, Merrick’s secret identity as Gordoth the Untouched slips out… and so do Chase’s feelings. The timing can’t be helped, but now Merrick thinks Chase only cares about him because he’s a god.
Even more unfortunately, it turns out the cultists want to perform a ritual to end the world. Chase’s mission to convince Merrick his feelings predate any divine revelations takes a back seat to a case tangled with murder and lies, but Chase doesn’t give up. Once he finds out there’s a chance Merrick feels the same way, he digs in his heels. Suddenly he’s trying to court a god and save the world at the same time. What could possibly go wrong?
REVIEW:
I swear this series gets better every time I read the next book. And I’m very anxious to see what’s happening next because this one had a touch of the cliffhanger going on and I’m hoping Ollie is going to get what he needs very soon.
I laughed so hard in this book. I love the way the author has these gods and goddesses so down right hilarious. With Merrick not even having a clue at times because his sense of sarcasm is off or something, it’s hilarious. And Chase, of course, loves adding fuel to the fire.
Well, the idiots are of a different sort…..a bit. Still same stupidity at what they are doing, but it gets closer to home in this one. I felt so bad for Chase. Truly. Looking back on all that time that he could have been there and the tons of what ifs. Of course at the time he didn’t know of Gorgath & Az, etc, but he could have supported him anyway. Heck, I’d probably be drunk most of my days, if that’s what I saw every day as well. Especially when you not quite sure how it all began…..to a point. Well, you may know but the reality is so much different. Between Ollie and Chase, and with them being family torn apart, it’s heartbreaking because you can see they still love each other but how do you say I’m sorry and make amends.
And Merrick, the poor guy. He’s just in love with Chase as Chase is with him but his situation isn’t easy either. And with the idiot morons determined to end the world, it kind of makes it hard to explain things until it’s way too late.
This one was just wrought with so much. Action, emotion, of course tentacle sex, and so much more that it’s a book you can’t put down. And if you haven’t read this series, you need to get on it. It’s funny and lighthearted but serious and emotional at the same time. There’s just so much.
It’s a great series and another great book I strongly recommend
