Familiar Angel by Amy Lane

This book just isn't working for me and honestly it's pretty difficult for me to say exactly WHY. The story feels a bit "fogy", a lot of missing pieces confusing facts concerning the world building. Not to mention our hero, as well as his two best friends turned somewhat siblings are all CAT shifters. I don't like cats - AT ALL - so them being sort of the main heroes isn't really that appealing to me, not to mention they behave like FAR more than your regular house cats (which they are). I'm not sure if it's the magic abilities they have or some other enhancement but I REALLY have a hard time imagining some of the scenes with cats being SO brutal they can take a man down or a wild boar. No. Nope. No way.



Harry did his best to shield his two friends Edward and Francis from the horrible man who owned them (as young prostitutes in a brothel). Trying to escape they stumble upon a scene which changed their lives forever. They became the familiars of a witch and her significant other, practically their kids as they spent time with them, raised them and kept them safe. Well, as best as they can since now they are 3 men-cats operation of saving girls and boys from the likes of men who enslaved them all those years ago.

For all of them life is pretty great, yet Harry is missing one thing - one person - Suriel, the angel who enabled their escape (when they turned into cats-shifters). He has been coming and going from their lives for years and years but there is a price to be made and also there is a limit.. Suriel is becoming TOO human and now he has to decide either not return to earth or stay as a mortal. But he won't do that unless Harry ADMITS that's what he wants as well..

This is quite a complicated story "world wise" so I guess you need to be up to a pretty strange story with cat-heroes in it. It wasn't for me, which is why I decided to put it down on the 35% mark.. But it might totally be for someone a bit more open-minded than me ;)
