Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.

 

This is a really fun meme!

The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.

Then go over to Freda’s Voice and leave your link so we can visit your 56!

My 56 for this week is from

My 56 is a bit different this time as this is six books in one. I’ll be choosing a page with the number 56 from each book.

Page 56 Night Shift

“Don’t say a word,” he groaned, leaning back in his chair. “Not one f#!king word, Kiss. I’m warning you.”

Page 356 Hunter’s Prayer

The doorbell rang, but I ignored it. Anyone knocking at my door would either come in and get shot or go away.

Page 556 Redemption Alley

Even among normal humans with no scent of the nightside, there are killers.

Page 856 Flesh Circus

“If she keeps killing Cirque performers there’s going to be trouble.

Page 1056 Heaven’s Spite

He was making a slight crooning sound, too, like a child trying to entice a reluctant dog.

A nasty, sociopathic little child.

Page 1256 Angel Town

“I remember what I did now,” I whispered. ” I damned myself. Didn’t I.”

Synopsis

Not everyone can take on the things that go bump in the night.

Not everyone tries.

But Jill Kismet is not just anyone.

She’s a Hunter, trained by the best — and in over her head.

Welcome to the night shift…

The omnibus edition of Jill Kismet contains: Night Shift, Hunter’s Prayer, Redemption Alley, Flesh Circus, Heaven’s Spite and Angel Town.

I couldn’t believe my luck when I spotted this on a shelf at my favorite used book store. I’ve read the first book, Night Shift, and loved Kiss. She’s kick ass. And now I have the complete series in one ginormous book. I wonder how much it weighs?LOL There are 1364 pages and a glossary too. It’s over two and a half inches thick. And I just went and weighed it. It’s over two and a half pounds.

Thanks so much for visiting fuonlyknew!
