The feisty detective is going to make people pay for what they are learning about as far as the explosion and threats to the Warriors.\u00a0 This book made me laugh so much because hello Sid but the scene with Sid and Steve\u2026BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,,when you read you will know what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Can I say the new love interest blooming was making my heart feel all squishy!! But the hot mess between Charger and Raven\u2026.Man my heart was on the floor and people stomped on it.\u00a0 Gah, these two need to figure shit out QUICK!!\u00a0 But the mystery man and why Raven freaked out has me so excited for the next book!!\u00a0 I.
