Synopsis (Goodreads):
Remember that old line about how the only way out of the organization is in a pine box?Thoughts on Black Hat, White Witch: Oh. My. Goodness. I'm making the strongest heart eyes a person can make and I don't know if they're doing this story justice. That high-pitched sound you hear? That's me. Squealing with delight. Because YESSSSSSS. More Rue, please.
Well, Rue Hollis spent ten years thinking she had escaped the Black Hat Bureau, no coffin required.
Then her former partner had to go and shatter the illusion by showing up on her doorstep with grim tidings. As much as Rue wants to kick him to the curb, she agrees to hear him out for old times’ sake, and what he says chills her to the bone.
The Silver Stag was the most notorious paranormal serial killer in modern history, and Rue brought him down. Now a copycat has picked up where the Stag left off, and the Bureau wants her on the case. She beat the Stag once. They think she can do it again. But they don’t know she’s given up black magic, and she’s not about to tell them. White witches are prey, and Rue is the hunter, not the hunted. Always.
But can she take down the protégé of the man who almost beat her at her black witch best?
If she wants to keep her new town, her new home, her new life, then she has no choice but to find out.
So, hey. If you couldn't guess, I'm powerfully in like with Rue and her messed-up, mixed-up, trying-to-do-the-right-thing-and-hitting-those-moments-of-struggle-HARD life. She's a compelling mixture of successful (owns her own business, making a difference where she can) and paranoid of what's on her tail from her life before. With good reason. Because the Black Hat Bureau doesn't let go easily and Rue KNOWS they'll come for her at some point. If she's smart and wily, she can keep a step or two ahead.
Until, you know, she can't. When they do catch up with her it's in the form of her former partner and a sexy hunk of a man who puts off more dangerous vibes than most. Which apparently, Rue is a teeny-tiny bit into. AS ONE IS.
Pulled back into a muted version of her old life, Rue does what she can to help those who need it most. She reconnects with old friends, makes some hunky new connections, and sets about chasing down a very bad person before they can strike again.
Is Rue's life a complicated, messed up mess? IT SURE IS. She's trying her hardest to do the right thing and keep herself on the straight and narrow and it's not easy. I must say, I'm absolutely here for her struggle. Because WOW.
