Book Review: Storm Born - Richelle Mead

2754510
Just typical.  No love life to speak of for months, then all at once, every horny creature in the Otherworld wants to get your pants...

Eugenie Markham is a powerful shaman who does a brisk trade banishing spirits and fey who cross into the mortal world.  Mercenary, yes, but a girl's got to eat.  Her most recent case, however, is enough to ruin her appetite.  Hired to find a teenager who has been taken to the Otherworld, Eugenie comes face to face with a startling prophecy--on that uncovers dark secrets about her past and claims that Eugenie's' first-born will threaten the future of the world as she knows it.

Now Eugenie is a hot target for every ambitious demon and Otherworldy ne'er-do-well, and the ones who don't want to knock her up want her dead.  Eugenie handles a Glock as smoothly as she wields a wand, but she need some formidable allies for a job like this.  She finds them in Dorian, a seductive fairy king with a taste for bondage, and Kiyo, a gorgeous shape-shifter who redefines animal attraction.  But with enemies growing bolder and time running out, Eugenie realizes that the greatest danger is yet to come, and it lies in the dark powers that are stirring to life within her...

4/5 stars (really like it)
I LOVE Richelle Mead and have pretty much read all her books.  I had been holding off on this series until it was done and then I forgot about it and then remembered it.  So glad I read it.  I though Eugenie was okay and grew to like her more as the book progressed.  I absolutely love Dorian and Kiyo and not sure which guy is hotter.  I love how the story goes from Eugenie just being a great shaman and having a day job to where she ends up by the end of the book.  Definitely will read the second book.
