The final book of the Aisling Grey series

phenomenal! A great ending to a great Series. Well done, Katie. I have read books one, two, and three several times. This is the first time I actually got to read book 4. I am not disappointed.

Love her writing. Full of imagination and laughter

This series is ingenious in its imagination and laughter. Introducing new characters with ease. Wonderful.

Laugh out loud fuuny

This was my favorite of the series. Aisling was not as ignorant and much more confident. Not to mention, the dark power was hilariously rude.

laugh out loud funny

This is a chuckle to a laugh out loud series. In a serious world this is just what the doctor ordered to tickle your funny bone if you like this genre. I am reading all the books in sequence. It works better for me that way.

More fun/crazy antics from Aisling and Jim!

I have been a faithful Katie Macalister fan from day 1.... Before I joined Audible-I READ every series she has out and in doing so, my mind had created it's own opinion of all the character's voices, traits, etc... So, when I purchased and began listening to the Audible versions- narrated by Barbara Rosenblat, I admit I was a bit worried it wouldn't do them justice.... Her voice is very distinct- BUT... Oh, how I was SOOOO wrong!!!! Barbara's unique vocal ranges and absolutely superb variations on the characters accents BLEW ME AWAY!!! There really is no other narrator who could pull it off so flawlessly! Bravo Katie, and BRAVO Barbara!!!!

Finally got a real ending!!

There is the author’s usual creative approach to suspense and storytelling and humor. This book finally has many of the loose ends tied up. I adore Uncle Damien. He is strong, capable, unflappable, intelligent, compassionate, and a very good judge of character. He was always very supportive and loving to Aisling and her “parents”. The same can be said of Drake, Gabriel, and possibly Bastian. Costya is definitely a work in progress and it’s unknown whether he will be a protagonist or a villain in the future. This is an exciting and well written book that I highly recommend.

Good Triumphs

I know I've said this before but I really like this series. All story lines were wrapped up with Katie's usual sense of humor. I even shed a few tears but all turned out right by the final words. This series can continue and I understand that all of the characters in the Guardian series show up in the Silver Dragon series. So I am off to hear Gabriel's story next.

fast and funny

If you could sum up Holy Smokes in three words, what would they be?

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed the whole serious barely waiting to get my credits to get the next part.

Katie MacAlister is on my favorite authors list

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

This story filled with action, excitement, love, romance, humor has it all.

Any additional comments?

I cannot think of a better narrator for this series than the fabulous Barbara Rosenblat. Her various voices are the perfect match for all of Katie MacAlister's written words. I love all of the characters but Jim brings just the right humor to the story and the voice that Rosenblat uses for him is just perfect. I love Jim and his humor, voice and timing.

All of the characters are wonderful. Aisling with her daring, courage, and confidence, Drake (who is yummy) with his strength, protectiveness, and power, are wonderful and very alive.

I was especially relieved that MacAlister continues the story line. I was so worried it was going to end.

laugh out loud

I love this series! I laughed out loud from book 1 through this one. The narrator is the BEST! I thought there was a different person reading for the different characters! She does accents better than any other reader i've heard! If you like light hearted entertainment and a sexy lead man you will like this series.
