Review: Archie's Accidental Kidnapping

Archie's Accidental Kidnapping by Toni Griffin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Read the original and loved it. But this expanded version is all the better for the adds. It’s a complicated world now, with hellhounds patrolling cities to take care of run amok Nephilim, Djinn and other creatures that go bump in the night. And like all peacekeepers, the hellhound pack is run ragged with too many bad guys and not enough of them to go around. Adze and his pack are tracking a Nephilim serial killer. Tracking the killer, Adze gets there before the killer can get his next victim into a getaway car. When Adze catches the scent of his mate coming from the victim, he’s torn. He doesn’t want to let the killer go but he can’t leave his mate unprotected. In the end, he protects his mate, taking him back to his home.

The last thing Archie remembers is arms grabbing him, so when he wakes in a strange place with a man he doesn’t know, he assumes it’s the kidnapper. And what if the stranger resembles the fantasy man from his dreams and there’s a spark of attraction when the man is near. What if the guy only wants to protect him? Archie is independent and wants to stay that way…maybe?

I loved the back and forth between Adze and Archie. And the two cents that is thrown in by the rest of the pack makes you laugh. There’s lots of teasing in between the serious jobs of tracking the bad guys. The world built here is well written, sucking you in. The plot keeps you turning the pages. As characters, the pack of hellhounds is varied and fun loving, but serious about their job. Can’t wait to meet more of them as the series progresses.
