I want more!

This is such a good story! The characters in Faith Hunter’s books are always so well rounded, I really get attached! This one tells the story of how Rick got his cat tattoos.
My only criticism is that it’s over!

Getting to know Rick

A good short story that gives you a glimpse of Rick’s history. I liked how it explains certain things & how it may affect the main story.
I also like novellas as they add some details that are not usually in the main storyline. It helps me form a more well rounded narrative & are enjoyable to read/listen to while on a lunch break or something like that.

I loved it!

I loved it!

This was such a surprise. I found these books and thought they were just more stories about Jane in New Orleans. I had no idea what a treasure trove I had found and what I was in for. I was so happy at the end of my first book to find that these were stories of Jane’s history and how some of her backstories played out that are just referenced throughout the series. I also enjoyed hearing the stories from Molly’s perspective. It was money and time well spent.

Short and sweet

Any additional comments?

This is a fun short story, but be aware that it is an extract from one of the other books, not a new story.
Also be aware that while some of these 'shorts' are an hour or more long, others are rather less than that.
Very enjoyable listen anyway!

Rick has tattoos?

I’ve only read the first two books, but I don’t remember it. Was nice to hear his perspective.

Time to read series again!

The tarot readings alone makes me want to take notes. Were all of the "forecasts" actually cases of going back to make the connections?

Loved it

I love seeing the before short stories leading into the Jane Yellowrock universe. It is beautifully done and full of excitement. Now off to the next one.

When Rick gets his cat tats

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If you a fan of this series or not this stand alone novellas is very well-developed. Rick is an undercover police officer who gets too close to a sexy female vampire with a score to settle with his family. She uses a witch to bind him to her.

What other book might you compare Cat Tats to and why?

This book is like the other books in the Jane Yellowrock series except Rick had not met Jane yet. It has vampires, witches and humans in it. It has the vampire planning to hunt another vampire who was felt to have done her wrong.

Which character – as performed by Khristine Hvam – was your favorite?

Rick is one of my favorites because of his character flaws, that of a skirt chaser, and as a policeman his push to do right

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the witch starts to help Rick by taking all but one of the handcuffs off of him. Trust at this time was a very hard trust to come to with the vampire holding the witches seven year old brother and molesting the child. . Rick is about to be bound to the witch.

Any additional comments?

You always want a back story on Rick LeFluer. This is a needed addition to the series. It gives a good example of Rick's character.

Rick's Tat's Explained!!

I adore any of Faith's work & this little story of the origin of Ricks tattoos also has a bonus tarot reading that you need to pay extra attention to!! bonus!!

Hints

I've used to think Jane's bobcat & beast on Rick had a meaning, "over and over again".... This seems to hint to that extent, no matter where life might lead them momentarily, they live long, one day some turns and twists shall make the path chosen with the tattoo clear. Or so I believe or hope 😎
