Recovery
Dr. Jacqueline Saint-Ebène joined the French Defense Health Service because she had grown bored of vaginas. But neither her years as an Ob-Gyn nor her tour as a combat surgeon in Africa prepared her for her latest a supernatural immaculate conception, her pregnant oldest sister's stroke, and the army's concern that her brother-in-law might exist as the center of it all. While Jacqueline grapples with family and military drama, she also finds herself in a personal crisis in Djibouti. She underestimated the role of Issa Somali culture in her boyfriend's life and learns he has a secret that threatens the core of their relationship. Throw in a sexy young werewolf- and, yes, werewolves are real- and Jacqueline doesn't know where to find the truth.

I love Ackerman’s details and combined with the story, this is makes “Recovery” my favorite book in the series.
Not only did I enjoy the expanding adventure of “Fashion and Fiends” But I fell in love with Doc Saint due to her personality, style, and intelligence. Better still, when she approached the supernatural, she did not just write it off or combat what she what witnessed with her medical mind, she embraced those elements with logic and reason and came to the only conclusion she could.
I loved reading more about Djibouti (where the author had travelled to) but the relationship of the people to the French. Learning about French army life, obstetrics, and hospitals only added to the intense flavor of life and love and mayhem that the novel offers up to readers.
Although I cannot imagine what happens next to Etienne and company, I know it will continue to be fascinating. As always, I look forward to more from Ackerman because she is one of the few writers that really takes me places.
