Monsters, gods, and mayhem... Police Chief Delaney Reed can handle the Valkyries, werewolves, gill-men and other paranormal creatures who call the small beach town of Ordinary, Oregon their home. It’s the vacationing gods who keep her up at night. With the famous rhubarb festival right around the corner, small-town tensions, tempers, and godly tantrums are at an all-time high. The last thing Delaney needs is her ex-boyfriend reappearing just when she's finally caught the attention of Ryder Bailey, the one man she should never love. No, scratch that. The actual last thing she needs is a dead body washing ashore, especially since the dead body is a god. Catching a murderer, wrestling a god power, and re-scheduling the apocalypse? Just another day on the job in Ordinary. Falling in love with her childhood friend while trying to keep the secrets of her town secret? That’s gonna take some work.

4.0 Death and Relaxation (Ordinary Magic #1)
I found this book through a review by Spare Ammo and she made it sound so good I broke down and bought the paperback from Amazon - the only place it was available. I'm glad it I did - it was excellent! Delaney is the oldest of three sisters dedicated to policing the town of Ordinary, Oregon; a to...

4.0 Death and Relaxation (Devon Monk)
3.75 starsDevon Monk is one of my favorite urban fantasy authors. I don't think I ever find a book from hers that I don't like ever since I discovered her Allie Beckstrom series five years ago. ALTHOUGH, I did skip her Age of Steam series, mainly because I'm not really a fan of steampunk. Anyway, th...

4.5 Review- Death and Relaxation
It seems lately that I have read nothing but pretty bad books and that's not true. Devon Monk has given us the gift of Ordinary, Oregon and the mortals, gods, and paranormals who live and vacation there. I've read Monk's Allie Beckstrom series and the Terric and Shame duology and enjoyed both but ...
