Synopsis (Goodreads):
Anthropologist Jillian Ramsay's career has taken a turn south.Thoughts on How to Date Your Dragon: A human anthropologist and the sometimes snarly sheriff (who happens to be a supernatural of epic proportions) of Mystic Bayou. Things were already a teeny bit tense between them (because Bael wasn't keen on Jillian ferreting out ALL the town's secrets) and then a few townsfolk get murdered.
Concerned that technology is about to chase mythological creatures out into the open (how long can Sasquatch stay hidden from Google maps?), the League for Interspecies Cooperation is sending Jillian to Louisiana on a fact-finding mission. While the League hopes to hold on to secrecy for a little bit longer, they're preparing for the worst in terms of human reactions. They need a plan, so they look to Mystic Bayou, a tiny town hidden in the swamp where humans and supernatural residents have been living in harmony for generations. Mermaids and gator shifters swim in the bayou. Spirit bottles light the front porches after twilight. Dragons light the fires under crayfish pots.
Jillian's first assignment for the League could be her last. Mystic Bayou is wary of outsiders, and she has difficulty getting locals to talk to her. And she can't get the gruff town sheriff, Bael Boone, off of her back or out of her mind. Bael is the finest male specimen she's seen in a long time, even though he might not be human. Soon their flirtation is hotter than a dragon's breath, which Bael just might turn out to be...
Little town, big problem.
Fortunately for Jillian, Bael's snarls aren't directed at her in a personal sense. He's just a little on edge about the potential exposure of Mystic Bayou's biggest secret. While his snarls aren't personal, his interest in her turns out to be. And the more he learns about her, the more he likes her.
On Jillian's end, she's trying her hardest to keep her first assignment from crashing and burning. Bael is a distraction who's kinda hard (so hard!) to ignore. Especially when the bodies start showing up.
This one was fun. A town full of supernatural hotties, a dangerous phenomenon out in the swamp, and a dangerous predator on the hunt. Good stuff all around.
