Forced into a one-week ride along with agents of the XIA, Benny tries to hide the fact that she isn’t quite human. Benny has lived her life in the shadows, avoiding the public eye. Her life as a recipe blogger pays the bills and lets her socialise, but she is about to get the assignment of a lifetime. Her boss orders her into a one-week ride-along with agents of the XIA, the eXtranormal Investigation Agency. It is the anniversary of the agency, and they need to improve their exposure with the general public. Against her objections, she is paired with a standard set of agents—a vampire, a shifter and a fey. They are willing to work with her, and it is only when she signs the waivers that she learns why. They all read her column. A week doesn’t seem like much time to learn about an organisation that deals with things most folk don’t enjoy thinking about, but it whips past when the assignments go from casual crime to murders that have one pivot point. Benny. Excerpt: Benny hated assignment meetings. They were intolerable, as those selected for the lackluster jobs tried to squirm out of them. Today was no exception. “I don’t see why I am up for this particular assignment, Julian. Doing a week of ride-alongs with the XIA is not my idea of scintillating reporting. What am I going to do? Get stuck in a black van for a week?” The gathered reporters were all staring at her with amusement and relief that it wasn’t them. “Benny, you have basic magic senses and two years of mage studies at the university. You are the most capable of seeing if the XIA is actually worth the money we have put in over the last fifty years or if the anniversary is celebrating mediocrity.” Julian rubbed his green-scaled hands together. “Add to that the fact that you are human and it makes you the perfect foil to the extranatural officers that you will be dealing with.” Benny scrubbed her hands through her hair. “This isn’t a good idea. I just want to write the recipe articles and information on how to carve pumpkins for the best light distribution at Halloween.” Julian drummed his nails on the table, and he let out a gust of air. “Do you want me to spell this out?” “Please.” He waved at the selection of reporters in the room and on displays. “None of us can pass for human, and therefore, the XIA would consider us a suspect if they forgot we were there for the article.” Benny covered her eyes with one hand for a moment before glaring at the occupants of the room. “They don’t do that.” Freddy was next to her, and she nodded. “They do think we are up to no good.” Benny gave her friend a sideways look. “In your case, they are right.” Freddy shrugged. “I have to be me.” “Freddy, it is when you take someone else’s identification that you have a problem.” Julian sighed. “Right. Settled. Benny, you are on the XIA, and they are expecting you for the nightshift. Go home, get some sleep and take notes on everything you can. They aren’t allowing photos, but that is to be expected. I trust your memory and your common sense. Everyone else. As we have stated, get to it.” He pushed himself to his feet and walked over to Benny, she turned so he was staring at her face. “Take care and don’t do anything that Freddy would do.” From behind her, Benny heard, “Hey!” “For a full week?” “It is the fiftieth year of the XIA. It needs a full week of examination, and we are the only news agency they are willing to deal with. More to the point, you are the only reporter they are willing to deal with. Apparently, they like food.” Benny nodded, grabbed her notepad and her tablet and got to her feet, topping the goblin by close to two feet. He didn’t have a problem being even with her boobs, and she didn’t even notice it after a few years. Freddy linked arms with her and asked, “So, did you want to start happy hour a little early?” “No. I have to run this past Mom and Dad. You know how they feel about the XIA.”

13 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Way over-priced for a short story By E. Hauptman My biggest problem with this book is the pricing. $5 for a 100 page kindle book seems way out of line to me. I do like the heroine. She does not do stupid things and is very competent in her skills. She is probably the most "matter of fact, non-reactive" heroine I've read in a long time. You do not get "feelings" in this book and you only get hints of what people are thinking. In a weird way that makes for a very 'clean' read. Kind of like the old detective stories. The sex thing is a little weird with her sleeping with everyone on her policing team, but then she is not human. I did enjoy the book but I will not be buying more until these short, over-priced stories are either put together in one decently priced book or the prices for these short stories are more reasonable.
28 of 36 people found the following review helpful. multiple partners, not a fan By Amazon Customer I liked the heroine in this book. She was smart and practical. Her understanding of her world and her place in it was refreshing. She did not rush into danger and followed the directions of the agents on the ride along s. She was not full of sarcastic remarks and quips that a lot of authors seem to think make their heroines more bad ass. I, personally, fine those types of heroines very annoying. The only reason that this book only got 3 stars from me is my preference for monogamous relationships in my reading. I do not like it when the hero/heroine has more that 1 love interest. That is just my personal taste. While she did not really hook up with any of the guys in this book, it seemed to be heading in the direction of her and the 3 of them. I found that a bit hard to swallow. An alpha lion, a vampire and an elf all will to share 1 woman. I always find myself wondering if they have a schedule that they set up and check off to make sure that everyone gets equal time. LOL If you have no problems with multiple partners in your books, and like a SMART heroine, then you will probably like this one. I do not plan to read anymore in this series, but I like her as an author and will continue to buy her other books.
9 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Great, if you're a fan of awkward, robotic dialog. By Shirley U Jest I got through the first chapter and can't go on. Here's why:“I will be fine. I will make some concealer and get through the next week with all the grace and style you two gave me.""I will manage something." "I am sure you will.""See Spot run. Run, Spot, run. "Ok that last one isn't true, but that's what it's like trying to read this book. The author needs to listen to how people speak, and read the words out loud to see what they sound like. People use contractions! "I'll be fine." "I'm sure things will work out."Two stars because the premise sounded like something I really wanted to read. If the book is re-worked, I'd probably buy it, but for $5 I expect better. Sorry, not sorry.
