Mouth to Mouth

- Erin McCarthy -

Always enjoy this author and this was no exception.

Loved the characters, loved the way Laurel's deafness was just treated as a fact of life, loved the B story of Russ's partner Jeff and Laurel's coworker Cat - almost wish we had a little bit more time with those characters too.

The mystery/crime aspect that inititally brought Laurel and Russ together was mostly secondary to the story, and that was more than enough.

Also enjoyed Russ's relationship with his brother Sean - would have liked more of that too.

Did think Laurel's mom adjusted a wee bit too quickly to suddenly finding a large, naked man in her daughter's bed but then again also enjoyed the fact that there was no cliched "Oh noes, he is bad" or whatever reaction which I was expecting given how Laurel had described her over protectiveness.

Fun read from a reliably enjoyable author.
