Shift (Shifters, #5) - Rachel Vincent ★★★★ 441 pgs

Faythe and her pride are preparing for war when new enemies show up on their land. They seek vengeance for the lose of one of their own and say that they have proof that one of the men in Faythe's pride was responsible. They've been framed, but these new enemies have different rules and refuse to back off unless there is absolute proof that they were not responsible. The enemies have Kaci and have given Faythe 48 hours to return with proof that Malone has lied to them. If she doesn't return then Kaci will be killed. Crunched for time, Faythe has to find a way to keep her promise that she'll keep Kaci safe, while trying to get closer to her true enemy than ever before.

Another fun, action filled book by Rachel Vincent. Even though the political maneuvering was still a large motivation behind the plot, I didn't feel the need to through my book across the room because I couldn't help Faythe. It was a nice change from the last two books. Although, maybe that means the previous two were better written to push me that far, but I needed the break. Not like Faythe got one... Faythe has to attempt to find proof in order to save both Kaci and her family. If the 48 hours ends without her task being completed, the asault on her home will continue. Plus, things are coming to head with Marc, Jace and her. She needs to deal with the boys, but her life doesn't exactly leave her enough down time to really deal with the issues at hand. Although, she'd probably be just as indecisive seeing how they are both great guys. I'm certain I know who she'll pick, but she really does need to think things through before going one way or the other. Sadly, I doubt she'll get much time for that.
