Relation To Books Scouting Jasmine (Jaz Parks #0.5)
Vayl has decided that he wants Jasmine Parks as his new CIA partner. He takes the opportunity to spy on her as she takes on a vampire nest alone. He is shocked by her reckless methods, intrigued by her inventive plans and finds her physically attractive. He also finds that being in the vicinity while she hunts vampires is dangerous to his own health.This was a good short story. We see Vayl in stalker mode, admiring Jasmine and plotting how to make the CIA give her to him as a new partner. The more he watches, the more he becomes nervous that she is going to get herself killed with her crazy stunts and barmy plans. He keeps getting close enough to intervene while masking his appearance but Jaz can sense him and nearly kills him. It feels a bit like a slapstick film at times with Vayl hovering like an expectant father and trying not to get killed.
We also see how much trauma Jaz is still carrying from Matt's recent death, operating almost with a death wish. It gives an insight as to how Vayl's influence has helped her get back on track to be less suicidal by the time we meet them both in the first novel of the series. I liked this because it does add something to the series and it was fun to see things from Vayl's POV.

Vayl you perv. I appove! Awesome to get inside Vayl's head :)
Interesting introduction to Jaz Parks. Sets her character up very well for the first full-length book.

This is a sweet short story of how Vayl observes Jaz before he decides to take her as a partner. The story is told from Vayl's POV, so that is a bit of fun right there!
I really enjoyed this prequel to the series even though it was written after the first book. It gave an insight to Jaz through Vayl's eyes - a strong, smart, kickass character.
This was a quick little read. We get to see everything from Vayl's point of view, and he's basically observing Jaz while she's out on a job. There's little to no dialogue in this story, but regardless it still moves at a fast pace. I like that we get to see the beginning of Vayl's feeling towards Jaz, and we get to see an "outsiders" view of Jaz since the main body of the series is told from her point of view. There's also some "bonus material" (nothing new), that is the beginning chapter of
