Happy Book Birthday to two fabulous books by my awesome writerly friends!
Queen of Nowhere (Hidden Empire #5) by Jaine Fenn
When paranoia is a way of life, trust doesn't come easily.
The Sidhe look like us. They live amongst us. What they lack in numbers they make up with their fearsome mental abilities and the considerable physical resources at their disposal. And their biggest advantage? No one believes they exist.
Almost no one.
Bez, the best hacker in human-space, is fighting a secret war against them. Always one step ahead, never lingering in one place, she's determined to bring them down. But she can't expose the Hidden Empire alone and when the only ally she trusted fails her she must accept help from an unexpected quarter.
Just one misstep, one incorrect assumption, and her Sidhe trap - her life's work - could end in vicious disaster. Worse, if Bez fails then humanity may never have another chance to win free of the manipulative and deadly Sidhe . . .

The Trouble with Fate (Mystwalker #1) (UK Edition) by Leigh Evans
WHAT SHE DOESN’T KNOW MIGHT KILL HER: Hedi looks normal. Yet that’s
taken effort. Her fellow Starbucks baristas don't see her pointed ears,
fae amulet or her dark past, and normal is hard for a half-fae,
half-werewolf on the run. Hedi’s life changed ten years ago, when her
parents were murdered by unknown assassins. She’s been in hiding with
her loopy aunt Lou since, as whatever they wanted she’s determined they
won’t get it.
Things change when wolves capture Lou, forcing Hedi to
steal to free her – for if she can offer up a fae amulet like her own
they may trade. But it belongs to a rogue werewolf named Robson
Trowbridge, who betrayed Hedi on the night of her greatest need. Over
forty-eight hours, Hedi will face the weres of Creemore, discover the
extent of her fae powers and possibly break her own heart in the
process.

I needed a reminder to jump back into Jaine Fenn's world. I read the first book (courtesy of you) and bought the second two, but didn't read them yet. Need/want to read them, so good reminder.
This Trouble With Fate sounds very interesting - especially being in hiding wiht a loopy aunt Lou. I'll have to take a look at that also. :)
as of Feb 11, I'm halfway through The Trouble With Fate, and am enjoying the hell out of it. Great book. :)
you sure have good taste! :)
Jaine's world is fab! Glad you enjoy it :-)
And The Trouble with Fate is also fab *g* xx
