Happy New Book Saturday! I tell you, it seems like this year is just flying by. So let's get on with this week's book. 

What caught my attention about "Hoofin' It" (apart from the chuckle-worthy title) was:

a) The llama on the cover:

I don't think I've ever seen a camelid - Camelids are a group of even-toed ungulate mammals which form the family Camelidae...in case you didn't know!* - on the cover of a book before.

b) The warning at the end of the blurb:

Warning: This novel contains excessive humor, action, excitement, adventure, magic, romance, and bodies. Proceed with caution.

Normally the warnings on urban fantasy books is about coarse language or sensitive themes, but we've got some humor here, which I like the sound of.

It's been out since the start of September, and so far, the reviews have been good.

Interest piqued? Then read on...   
 
 

Blurb: 
 
All Shane wanted was to get away from the wreckage of his career for a while. He picked New York City to provide him with a distraction from his early, unwanted retirement from the police force.

New York City delivered, distracting him with three corpses and a miniature llama with a spitting problem and an attitude. If he wants to return to a normal life, he’ll have to face off against a sex trafficking ring targeting the woman of his dreams, ancient vampires, murderous criminals, his parents, and an FBI agent with a hidden agenda.

Some days, it isn’t easy being an ex-cop.
