Curiosity is definitely going to get me dead one of these days. Probably real soon.
I'm Gin Blanco.
You might know me as the Spider, the most feared assassin in the South. I’m retired now, but trouble still has a way of finding me. Like the other day when two punks tried to rob my popular barbecue joint, the Pork Pit. Then there was the barrage of gunfire on the restaurant. Only, for once, those kill shots weren’t aimed at me. They were meant for Violet Fox. Ever since I agreed to help Violet and her grandfather protect their property from an evil coalmining tycoon, I’m beginning to wonder if I’m really retired. So is Detective Donovan Caine. The only honest cop in Ashland is having a real hard time reconciling his attraction to me with his Boy Scout mentality. And I can barely keep my hands off his sexy body. What can I say? I’m a Stone elemental with a little Ice magic thrown in, but my heart isn’t made of solid rock. Luckily, Gin Blanco always gets her man . . . dead or alive.

As a romance reader, I love any hint of romance between the characters in books and in this, after what happened between Gin and Donovan in the first book, my hopes soared. But with it being Urban Fantasy, romance isn't really a major plotline in it. The more I read the more I understood that thin...
Inhalt: Gin hat ihrem Profi-Killer-Dasein den Rücken gekehrt und sich als Inhaberin des Pork Pit niedergelassen. Sie tritt voll und ganz in die Fußstapfen von Flechter und genießt ihren Ruhestand oder vielleicht doch nicht. Denn all die Ruhe wird gestört, als sich ein Gast nach dem Zinnsoldaten in...
ReviewGin Blanco is one of those bad ass chicks that I admire. Even though she has been adamant about being retired she can't help but help this family. They have no idea the force they are dealing with, and she intends to take that person out.Caine drove me crazy in the first book, and he continues...
The second title in Ms. Estep's well-crafted Elemental Assassin series continues the story of Gin Blanco, now retired assassin. This time around, Gin finds herself being threatened by Jake McAllister, son of notorious attorney Jonah McAllister, after she foils his robbery attempt at the Pork Pit. In...
When I read "Spiders's Bite", the first book in this series. last September I thought the series showed promise because, Gin Blanco, the Elemental Assassin of the title, was refreshingly amoral and because Lauren Fortgang's narration brought the book alive. "Web of Lies" has some good things going...
