Our favorite werewolf DJ is at it again. This time, Kitty Norville has been summoned to Washington DC to testify before a Senate committee on paranormal biology. While there, she is taken under the wing of the city's vampire mistress, Alette. Kitty fights against Alette's controlling ways while admiring her calm strength. A hunky South American were-jaguar who pants after her, military hit men who want to kidnap her, an evil sidhe who wants to control her, and extreme religious fanatic who wants to kill her make up just a small part of the cast in this intrigue-filled romp through our nation's capitol.

While not as fun or as quick a read as the first book, Kitty and the Midnight Hour, Vaughn's second "Kitty" book is a satisfying chick-lit read. Just don't expect the hero and heroine to ride (run?) off together in a happily-ever-after ending. If you don't mind that, then definitely pick up this sequel. It's a good continuation of the first story – but is also a good stand-alone book.

Oh, and as a bonus, the author has included a short "Kitty" story at the end of the book. A quick, fun read that for all its brevity shows a keen insight into human behavior.
