Date Published: May 16, 2014
When Allison is asked to play Cinderella-turned-Fiancee at a Halloween ball, the last thing she expects is to be accused of murder. She has to find the killer and quick, or she'll be put to death for the crimes she didn't commit. To make matters worse, the victims are all werewolves.
On the short list of potential victims, Allison has to act fast, or the killer will have one more body to add to his little black book of corpses.
There's only one problem: One of the deaths has struck too close to home, and Allison's desire for self-preservation may very well transform into a quest for vengeance...

R.J. Blain
RJ Blain suffers from a Moleskine journal obsession, a pen fixation, and a terrible tendency to pun without warning.
When she isn't playing pretend, she likes to think she's a cartographer and a sumi-e painter. In reality, she herds cats and a husband. She also has a tendency to play MMOs and other computer games.
In her spare time, she daydreams about being a spy. Should that fail, her contingency plan involves tying her best of enemies to spinning wheels and quoting James Bond villains until she is satisfied.
3.5 Stars
Allison's friend calls in a favor and for the witch/warewolf thing become crazyquick because sh'es asked to go to a ball on Halloween which happens to have a full moon. If she can keep from growing a tail before the party is over she might just get through the night.... Until someone's murdured and she's accused of the crime. Together with her witch best friend she has a mystery to solve and she has to do it before others catch up to her. When it comes down to it who can she trust to help her and who's secreatly against her.
Allison is 200 years old and not necesseraly does age bring wisdom, she's tough as nails, but she also deny's who she really is because of self lothing. She does what she thinks is right and if the consequences become crazy she'll just ride out the storm.
The story was interesting but way too confusing. The backstory was never really told only hints were given leaving you scrambling to understand just who the bad guys were and how she became associated with them in the past. Just when you think you're finally starting to understand what's going on more stuff gets thrown at you leaving you more confused than ever. Like I said the basic story was interesting, but there was either too much going on for one story or there needed to be more information in this one.
