Enslaved By the Others (H&W Investigations, #6) by Jess Haines

Private Investigator/Other Specialist, Shiarra Waynest, has been captured by vampire slave trader Max Carlyle. She needs to rescue her friends and escape but will she be able to do it before Max breaks her.

I felt for Shiarra. She is a worthy heroine who cares deeply about her friends; especially Sara, whom she considers a sister. She struggles while being held captive, this makes her believable and human or sort of human. I admire that she is relentless and a fighter.

Max is a well-done bad guy. He is evil and cunning. It is easy to dislike and not trust him.

Enslaved By the Others is well-written and has non-stop action that will keep you guessing the outcome of the story. The plot was exciting and heart-stopping. Enslaved By the Others is a brilliant urban fantasy that stimulates the imagination.

Forsaken by the Others (H&W Investigations, #5) by Jess Haines

Forsaken by the Others by Jess Haines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having stirred things up in New York, Shiarra Waynest’s life is in danger. Vampire, Alex Royce, sends Shiarra and her business partner, Sara Halloway, to L.A. to lay low while he tries to fix matters back at home. Royce has them stay with one of his most powerful allies Clyde Seabreeze.

Simultaneously, Shiarra is fighting a strange strand of lycanthropy that leaves black goo coming out of eyes and ears.

While in California, Clyde hires Shiarra and Sara to investigate the zombies that have been infesting L.A. and killing off vampires of Clyde’s bloodline.

I read this book in the series first and had no problem following the story. It was entertaining and original. It does end with a cliffhanger that makes you anxious to read the sequel. Having enjoyed the novel, I do want to go back and read the other four books – preferably in order.
