I love this novella. I have it as an e-book. It is as fantastic as the rest of them! It fills in the gaps between book 2 and book 3. as always I just wish there were more pages but only because I am greedy like that!

Nikki Glass Novella.
Really like this series! Nikki takes on a client and ends up wishing she hadn't, but things work out in the end.

I’m a big fan of crossgenre books, especially when the crossing is crime with dark fantasy. Supernatural detectives rock my boat, you might say, so I’m always interested to find a new (to me) series. Pros and Cons fits the bill very nicely, even though it’s not the beginning of the series; this novella is actually the third publication in the chronological list but is not labeled as #3 because it’s not a full-length novel. To my way of thinking, a mid-series novella or short story is a perfect way to introduce a new reader to that series and it certainly worked its magic on me.
I love the idea that Nikki Glass is a descendant of Artemis because, after all, what is a private investigator if not a huntress? I’m pretty sure I didn’t get a really good taste of Nikki’s story because there’s not much about her cohorts in this novella. That’s OK, though, because I needed to know that the crime element of this series is not just a throwaway side story to the paranormal theme. Nikki is a bona fide detective and I can learn more about her friends and colleagues, as well as her romantic life, when I delve further into the series.
In Pros and Cons, Nikki takes on a “normal” case to give her an excuse to stay away from her supernatural environs for a little while but, early on, she realizes that something is not quite right about her new client. All the mythological trappings were lingering off to the side and I fell in love/like with Jack when he got involved. Jack is a descendant of Loki, the Norse trickster god who’s fun and devious and more than a little bit of a bad boy. Jack was the icing on the cake of a decent little tale of crime and I’ll be glad to see these folks again when I go back to book #1, Dark Descendant. I have some catching up to do!

Nikki Glass is a descent of Artemis, she is also a private investigator. A client asks her to find a man she had a one night stand with...but all is not what it seems. The more she uncovers the more her search becomes questionable. The lies are building up but Nikki is determined to get to the bottom of this investigation.
This is a fun novella length read. Definitely wetting my desire for more of the Nikki Glass Series, I found Pros and Cons an extraordinary little adventure into Nikki Glass’s world. A world where decedents of gods exist and a portion of the gods power with them.
This ARC copy of Pros and Cons was given to me by Edelweiss and Pocket Star in exchange for an honest review. Publish Date Feb. 25, 2013.
