Chapter 13
My Thoughts:
Jacque realizes that Fane’s scent
not only has a specific smell, but it calls to her. Now I’ve noticed someone smelling good
before, and I’ve been comforted by a familiar smell, but I’m not sure I could
say I’ve had one “call” me before…well that is if you don’t count chocolate
chip cookies baking in the oven. My guess is that it calls to her wolf.
There is a when Jen tells Sally “Yeah,
yeah. You’re a real gypsy.” I wonder if QL did this on purpose. Did she give us
a bit of foreshadowing here, or was it just a happy coincidence? There are a
few of these “coincidences” if that is the case, things that you might not
catch the first time you read through. I imagine that I’ll still be catching
little nuances each time I read them. Which is one of the reasons, IMHO, that
QL is a good writer. Something else I noticed about QL’s writing as I read the
series was it got better with each book.
As the girls quiet begin to get
ready for sleep, Jacque notices she can “feel” Sally worrying. What exactly is
Sally worrying about? Well, let’s see, one of her best friends is able to
communicate with the new hot guy via her mind, and all of a sudden same girl is
sporting an amazing tattoo that she didn’t pay to have done (nor did she have
the lovely experience that goes with having your skin pierced with a tiny
needle many, many times). My question is, why is she worried, but Jacque seems
to be more accepting of it. Is this because, as we learn later, Sally just kind
of knows things? Is Jacque, at least on some level, in denial or even in shock?
Favorite Lines:
“All I got to say is if she said no, she might not want to
go to sleep tonight, ‘cause I’m going to dye her hair blonde to compliment her
on being a dumb ass,” Jen told them.
“Uh, Jen. You’re a blonde,” Jacque pointed out.
“No, not really. God just got it wrong and it was too late
to change once He noticed.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Well, put away your hair dye you
overreacting freak. I said yes…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“This is really happening, isn’t it?”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“You really should seek help for
that temper of yours. You know, they have medicine that would help,” Jacque
told her, trying to sound gentle as if talking to an unruly child.
Things We Learned:
- Fane’s scent smells like woods and spice to Jacque
- Fane’s scent is comforting to Jacque; it “calls” to her
- Confirmation that Lilly knows who and what Fane is
- Lilly thinks that Fane may suspect she knows something
- Jen thinks confidence is sexy; does not think men driving hybrids is
- Jacque is waiting for the “other shoe” to drop
- Jen thinks Fane could be “the one” for Jacque (which of course he is)
- Jacque realizes that her marks would actually fit Fane’s marks like a puzzle
- Jacque can “feel” the waves of worry coming off of Sally
- Jen pretty much only thinks about things that pertain to sex and/or the opposite sex
