Finally, we read about Dr. Graves and the true reason he became fascinated with being a physician. This novella is a short and sweet story about Dr. William Graves and Winnifred, the Duchess of Avendale who we meet in In Bed with the Devil (Scoundrels of St. James #1). She is Catherine Mabry’s friend who was abused by her husband, the Duke of Avendale. This story starts a couple of years after Avendale was found “dead” (the reason for this can be read in In Bed with the Devil).
In this story, Winnie has finally found confidence and courage and of course, she is fighting her attraction to Dr. William Graves, who took care of her when she was at death’s door. Winnie doesn’t know that the Duke is not actually dead but was sent to the colonies (Australia, I believe) and she thinks that the Duke is haunting her. Naturally, the gang steps up and helps guard Winnie without actually telling her that the Duke is not dead. A showdown between William and the Duke of Avendale happens at the end which results in William Graves being shot and Winnie killing the Duke.
I loved the story. It was short but packed with a lot of thrills and romance. I loved reading about Winnie finding her courage, confidence, and strength. William is not my fave character but in this book, he was interesting. I thought both him and Winnie were an awesome pair.

I FINALLY read The Other Half of the Grave and I am kicking myself for waiting this long to read Bones’ POV! Halfway to the Grave was all in Cat’s POV and I was just so curious on what Bones’ was thinking – because let’s face it, Cat was very immature in Halfway and I couldn’t imagine a master vampire like Bones would put up with her.
The Other Half of the Grave did not disappoint. I love reading the book from Bones’ POV because now we know his thoughts and how he was reacting to Cat’s antics – as frustrating as Cat is! There are also new scenes here because this is Bones’ POV. It gave me another insight into what Bones was thinking.
If you are a fan of the Night Huntress series, then I highly recommend that you read Bones’ POV! If you can read this book alternatively with the OG books in the series, it would even be more immersing.

Lovely review, Ezrah. It was nice to see William and Winifred finally get their HEA.
I would have favored a full-length book even with perusing alternate series. I continued sitting tight for William's book and just got this.It was disappointing.It was decent to get something however it was to a greater extent a sidekick piece to both the beforehand mentioned series and her latest book in which the hero is the child of the heroine in this novella than a stand-alone story.
