Resurrection, NY is America’s only supernatural friendly town, built on an outfolded pocket of Faerie. Werewolf cop Adam Santini is sworn to protect and serve all of Resurrection’s races – including unsuspecting human Talents who wander in from Outside.
Ari stumbles into Adam’s town from the Big Apple. She’s hot on the trail of a mysterious crime boss who wants to exploit her telekinesis for his own evil ends. If she can’t get Henry Blackwater off her back, she and her two most trusted friends in the world had better kiss the decent life they’ve built for themselves goodbye.
Ari’s mission puts her on a collision course with the hottest cop in the RPD. Adam wants Blackwater too, but mostly he wants Ari. She seems to be the mate he’s been yearning for all his life, though getting a former street kid into bed with the Law could be his toughest case to date.
When biology knocks boots with justice, more than bad guys go up flames.
My thoughts:
Thank you to Emma Holly for asking me to review her newest book Hidden Talents.
In Hidden Talents we meet Ari a young woman who knows she is different than her peers, but she doesn’t know just how different she really is. Being different is not always a good thing, not when the thing that makes you different is wanted by evil. The Talent that Ari has has caught the attention of a very bad man, who wants Ari do to very bad things. When Ari decides enough is enough she learns that no matter how much you run you still have to face your demons. That is how Ari finds herself in Resurrection, New York. Now she must find and kill her demon.
Adam is the Alpha leader of his pack and the leader of the RPD (Resurrection Police Department). When the police force is called out on an M without L (magic without license) they respond just like any other time. But what Adam doesn’t know is that once he walks through that door his life will forever change.
I enjoyed this story so very much. It was a great twist on your typical paranormal story. Adam & Ari are so hot together (I think I got burned just reading the book). Even if it takes Ari a little bit too long to realize what she has with Adam can never be matched.
I love the way that Emma sucked me into this new world from the beginning. I hope that there will be more books in this series. There are so many other characters that I want to learn more about and I want to know what is up next for Adam & Ari.

Can I just say I am so jealous of the amount of time you read! I haven't read since Monday 🙁 Another great review that has me wishing I had it in my hot little hands!! Thanks Kelly!
I agree with Natasha, so would love more reading time or maybe I just need to learn to read faster.
But what really grab me here is what you said about following & understanding the characters & story lines right from the start, so love a book that grabs you from the 1st line.
Thank you again Kelly great review !XOXOX
