WW28 book offering : Moonshine by Rob Thurman

Page 28, 1st Sentence:

I grinned.

Now that is a bit too stingy... two words? So let me post the rest of the paragraph:

I like Promise. I liked her for herself, but I would've liked her for Niko's sake if nothing else.

Those lines there shows us a glimpse of the family dynamics in the book.

About Moonshine:

Book 2 of the Cal Leandros series by Rob Thurman

I was born a monster. Although truthfully, I was only half a monster. My mother was human; my father was something… else. Half monster or whole, in the end it didn’t matter. I had my weaknesses, same as anyone else.

And I was facing one of them now.

After saving the world from his fiendish father’s side of the family, Cal Leandros and his stalwart half brother, Niko, have settled down with a new apartment and a new gig-bodyguard and detective work. And in New York City, where preternatural beings stalk the streets just like normal folk, business is good.

Their latest case has them going undercover for the Kin, the werewolf Mafia. A low-level Kin boss thinks a rival is setting him up for a fall, and wants proof. The place to start is the back room of Moonshine, a gambling club for non-humans. Cal thinks it’s a simple in-and-out job. But Cal is very, very wrong.

Cal and Niko are being set up themselves - and the people behind it have bites much worse than their barks…
