Cape Storm by Rachel Caine

I do love the Weather Warden Series.  Cape Storm is no. 8 in the series.  David (The Djinn) and Joanne are on a very big ship with Lewis and Cherise and other wardens travelling out to fight a storm that has been sent after them by Bad Bill.  Jo still has the demon mark on her back, courtesy of Bad Bill, and has become somewhat of a risk to the Weather Wardens that she works for.  David has put containments in place but Bad Bill still seems to be able to get to her.  After a lot of secrets and double play, obviously the heroine comes through.  But not in the way that you think.  You need to read the book.

This book showed Jo in a whole different light and towards the end I really feared for her sanity and for whose side she would end up on.  It is a tale of love above all else, which is sometimes hard to portray in an action novel.  There is a surprise ending and I look forward to Rachel Caine's next book 'Total Eclipse' to see what becomes of David, Jo, Lewis and the rest of the characters that makes this series a favourite.
