Stolen by Kelley Armstrong

Rating: 5.0

Stolen is the second book in the Women of the Otherworld series. It was a lot of fun! In this story we get to meet other 'races' besides the werewolves; for instance witches and vampires. The lone female werewolf Elena, from the first book, is captured by eccentric billionaire Tyrone Winsloe. Winsloe, the head of a secret underground lab, captures these other supernatural 'races' with nefarious means in mind. He gets more that he bargained for in Elena though. She's not the type to be taken advantage of. Stolen is fast paced with fun, witty dialogue. Publisher's Weekly says, "Though the tale is pretty much a prison-break story spiffed up with magic, Armstrong leavens the narrative with brisk action and intriguing dollops of werewolf culture that suggest a complex and richly imagined anthropologic backstory." I'm really looking forward to starting the next book in this series.
