Review: Kiss of Snow

Kiss of Snow (Psy-Changeling, book 10) by Nalini Singh

Genre: Paranormal Romance
Edition Reviewed: Paperback
Amazon: Paperback | Kindle
Goodreads: Kiss of Snow

The hardcover debut of New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh and her highly acclaimed Psy/Changeling novels.

Since the moment of her defection from the PsyNet and into the SnowDancer wolf pack, Sienna Lauren has had one weakness. Hawke. Alpha and dangerous, he compels her to madness.

Hawke is used to walking alone, having lost the woman who would've been his mate long ago. But Sienna fascinates the primal heart of him, even as he tells himself she is far too young to handle the wild fury of the wolf.

Then Sienna changes the rules-and suddenly, there is no more distance, only the most intimate of battles between two people who were never meant to meet. Yet as they strip away each other's secrets in a storm of raw emotion, they must also ready themselves for a far more vicious fight...

A deadly enemy is out to destroy SnowDancer, striking at everything they hold dear, but it is Sienna's darkest secret that may yet savage the pack that is her home-and the alpha who is its heartbeat.

Review:

This is it people! Ever since I knew that Sienna and Hawke would have a chance I've been hungry for it. We all knew it would be a while because Sienna had to grow up, and that time has come! Ahhhhh book ten, and this entry is just more proof that Singh isn't willing to let this series become anything but excellent. It always feels like that “highly anticipated couple” in long running series is watered down by the time it's finally out. Sienna and Hawke were everything I wanted and more!

Sienna has always interested me and I have to confess I desperately wanted more on her. About her family, how her time with Ming went. More-more-more-more. Finally readers get the scoop. Which gives a bigger insight into the Lauren family. It's amazing, and I don't think I can ever convey how wonderful Walker Lauren is. Toby and Marlee are wonderful, Singh is one of the few authors who can write realistic children. This books isn't just about Sienna and Hawke—with Singh it's never “just”—it's also about Walker and Lara falling in love. Toby and Marlee finally get a full family. Everything was so realistic that at a few moments I found myself misty eyed and fanning my eyes.

Sienna and Hawke are amazing together! While I must say I had wished that Sienna would be a bit more self assured, I know she's nineteen and that part of her courtship with Hawke is her growing up and gaining that self assurance. Kit and Sienna's relationship was another sweet addition and they have an amazing friendship—yes, I wish they could have had more. What I loved more was that Sienna is a virgin, but she owns it! She teases Hawke and goes toe for toe with him. Eventually she even owns her X designation. She can go toe to toe with the alpha of SnowDancer and it was wonderful watching her turn the tables on Hawke as she seduced him. Hawke is even more complicated then readers could have imagined and it was wonderful watching Sienna not only heal him, but call him on his crap. They are amazing together.

Kiss of Snow is the true turning point for this series. Nikita and Anthony have openly stated they will no longer support Silence. DarkRiver, WindHaven, SnowDancer, Anthony, and Nikita all join forces as the threat of PurePsy becomes more pressing. It's an interesting bunch and it's amazing seeing more into Nikita. She's a character I have grudgingly come to respect. Part of me hopes she gets a book and can truly break silence. This is the first battle of the war, and it's going to have readers on the edge of their seats hoping that beloved characters are safe.

SnowDancer and Darkrivers' relationship is amazing, transcending an alliance into trust. Readers are going to be so satisfied by this amazing entry. In the end I can rant and rave, but not cover just how much I loved this entry into the series. This was an adrenaline rush, the kind only a great book can give you. Oh, and the sexual tension! Thank you Singh. Thank you.

Sexual Content: Purrrrrr . . . er, I mean grrrrrrrrrrr.

 
5/5- Fabulous, a beautiful obsession!

Review: Play of Passion

Play of Passion (Psy-Changeling, book 9) by Nalini Singh

Genre: Paranormal Romance
Edition Reviewed: Paperback
Amazon: Paperback | Kindle
Goodreads: Play of Passion

In his position as tracker for the SnowDancer pack, it's up to Drew Kincaid to rein in rogue changelings who have lost control of their animal halves- even if it means killing those who have gone too far. But nothing in his life has prepared him for the battle he must now wage to win the heart of a woman who makes his body ignite... and who threatens to enslave his wolf.

Lieutenant Indigo Riviere doesn't easily allow skin privileges, especially of the sensual kind- and the last person she expects to find herself craving is the most wickedly playful male in the den. Everything she knows tells her to pull back before the flames burn them both to ash... but she hasn't counted on Drew's will.

Now, two of SnowDancer's most stubborn wolves find themselves playing a hot, sexy game even as lethal danger stalks the very place they call home.

---

Review:

Finally another dominate female to take the reins! Not just any dominate the one and only Indigo, the senior female lieutenant only out ranked by Riley. No she's not the fiery passion of Mercy, but Indigo is the cold flame of sexy. In fact, the comparisons made by some is that she's a lot like Judd. Which I can completely agree with.

Now, when I realized that she would be paired up with Drew there were some doubts in my mind. Yes, he took a bullet for Brenna and that earned him my undying love. However, Drew just felt wrong for Indigo. That's the magic of Singh though, once you start falling into the character there is so much more to them! Drew is amazing, he's so loving and giving. His task in the pack is as they're tracker, when wolves go feral and they lose their grip on their human sides, he's the one that goes after them. Sometimes he saves them, other times he's the one that has to put them down. Yet he works outside of the pack hierarchy and makes everyone easy with him. Drew is amazing!

Singh is still doing a beautiful job of blending in the other characters and the storylines. Sascha is still preggos and it's so fun watching Lucas get all territorial and protective with her. The way the characters all see each other and the world is developing is beyond what I could have asked for. The quiet and mysterious Walker is coming more into light, and he might be getting a mate! It's also clear this is the quiet before the storm. PurePsy is going to make their “real moves.” What's more is that Nikita and Anthony's stand and what they're willing to do. The council is divided and things are only getting crazier in the Net. Despite the focus on SnowDancer readers still get to see the affects. Speaking of SnowDancer, it's so wonderful getting to know the SnowDancer pack more. Especially through the eyes of a lieutenant and tracker.

Singh just keeps . . . being awesome! Each new addition to the series is amazing! The world, plots, characters, and—oh, my! Excuse me why I have my book gush! No really. This series is a contender. There's no reason anyone who likes paranormal genres should not be reading this. Period. Psy-Changeling universe is one of the top worlds of both Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Romance. The couples always bring the heat, it's not just about sex and getting the next couple mated. It's about watching two people fall in love and find something deeper than lust, which only makes you respect the author more.

Sexual Content: *fans* Sexual humor and yummy sex scenes!

 
5/5- Fabulous, a beautiful obsession!

Review: Wolf School

Wolf School (Psy-Changeling, book 9.1) by Nalini Singh

Genre: Paranormal Romance
Edition Reviewed: ebook
Amazon: Freebie on author’s site.
Goodreads: Wolf School

Originally written as a part of Play of Passion (psy-changeling series #12) but taken out of the book to be a short story available on the author's website.

Review:

This is kind of a deleted scene from Play of Passion, I can see it fitting in perfectly with the book. It's another cute moment that only Drew can pull off, and it's great seeing how it makes Indigo fall a bit more in love with him.

Another brilliant freebie from Singh.

Sexual Content: Clean.

  
4/5- Great! Really enjoyed it.

Wednesday Wishes

This is a heads up. Yesterday I posted Bonds of Justice, a Psy-Changeling book, and it kind of signals that I’m finally posting all of my Psy-Changeling reviews! The biggest thing is that I need to get all of my reviews up so I can finally get all of my reviews links together.

What can I say I’m a bit OCD that way.

Now let’s drool at some yummy books!

 Under the Moon by Natalie. J Damschroder

Get it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Series: Goddesses Rising, book 1

Their power gives them strength...and makes them targets.
Quinn Caldwell is the epitome of a modern goddess. Her power source is the moon, her abilities restricted only by physical resources and lunar phase. She runs a consulting business and her father's bar, serves on the board of the ancient Society for Goddess Education and Defense, and yearns for Nick Jarrett, professional goddess protector and the soul mate she can never have.
But someone has developed the rare and difficult ability to drain a goddess of her powers, and Quinn is a target. With the world thinking Nick has gone rogue (whatever that means) and that Quinn is influenced by "family ties" she didn't know she had, keeping themselves safe while working to find the enemy proves harder each day.

But not as hard as denying their hearts...

Actually the second book, Sunroper, is what caught my eye. After reading the synopsis I thought it would be a good idea to get my hands on book 2.

Mortal by Sarah J. Maas

Get it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: Fantasy Young Adult
Series: A Court of Thorns and Roses, book 1

For Feyre, the downfall of her merchant-class family into poverty wasn’t easy, but after five years, she’s starting to get the hang of things. Hunt, and her family lives; fail to catch anything, and they starve. It doesn’t help that her two older sisters are lazy and ungrateful, or that her father hasn’t bothered to recover from his misfortune, but Feyre is managing.

All that changes when a ferocious beast barges into their cottage, demanding that Feyre come live with him as payment for plucking an ordinary forest rose. Dragged off into the night, the beast brings her to a beautiful manor located in Faerie, the mysterious and deadly lands bordering the mortal world. There, he sheds his animal skin, and reveals himself to be Tamlin, a young, handsome Faerie Lord.
But the estate is overshadowed by a curse: each of its inhabitants wears a mask permanently attached to their face, and Tamlin is no exception. Despite her initial desire to loathe Tamlin and his world, Feyre soon finds herself attracted to the Faerie Lord by more than her curiosity.

Just when Feyre accepts the depth of her feelings for Tamlin, they’re torn apart by forces so dark that there’s little hope of standing against them. But Feyre has endured hardship before, and she refuses to accept that her happiness could be forever stolen from her. Resolving to save her beloved and discover a way to break his curse, Feyre sets out into Faerie, where unknown challenges and dangers await, and where her love and strength will be tested in ways she never imagined.

A retelling of ”Beauty and the Beast,” “Tam-Lin,” and ”East of the Sun, West of the Moon,” A Court of Thorns and Roses tells the story of a young woman growing into herself, learning to love, and understanding the true nature of sacrifice.

To be honest Throne of Glass was a bit of a let down for me. The main reason this is on my list is because it’s a Beauty and the Beast retelling. No matter what BatB is my main addiction.

If I Stay by Gayle Forman

Get it: Amazon | Goodreads
Genre: Paranormal Young Adult
Series: If I Stay, book 1

The critically acclaimed, bestselling novel from Gayle Forman, author of Where She Went, Just One Day, and the forthcoming Just One Year.
On a day that started like any other,

Mia had everything: a loving family, a gorgeous, admiring boyfriend, and a bright future full of music and full of choices. In an instant, almost all of that is taken from her. Caught between life and death, between a happy past and an unknowable future, Mia spends one critical day contemplating the only decision she has left. It is the most important decision she'll ever make.

Simultaneously tragic and hopeful, this is a romantic, riveting, and ultimately uplifting story about memory, music, living, dying, loving.

This is another ghost/afterlife story. They were really popular when this one came out and I ended up getting a bit of a bad taste in my reading palette. But this one seems to stand out and it’s always caught my eye.

Review: Bonds of Justice

Bonds of Justice (Psy-Changeling, book 8) by Nalini Singh

Genre: Paranormal Romance 
Edition Reviewed: Paperback
Amazon: Paperback | Kindle
Goodreads: Bonds of Justice

Max Shannon is a good cop, one of the best in New York Enforcement. Born with a natural shield that protects him against Psy mental invasions, he knows he has little chance of advancement within the Psy-dominated power structure. The last case he expects to be assigned is that of a murderer targeting a Psy Councilor’s closest advisors. And the last woman he expects to compel him in the most sensual of ways is a Psy on the verge of a catastrophic mental fracture…

Sophia Russo is a Justice-Psy, cursed with the ability to retrieve memories from men and women so twisted even veteran cops keep their distance. Appointed as Max’s liaison with the Psy, she finds herself fascinated by this human, her frozen heart threatening to thaw with forbidden emotion. But, her mind filled with other people’s nightmares, other people’s evil, she’s standing on the border between sanity and a silken darkness that urges her to take justice into her own hands, to become judge, jury…and executioner…(

Review:

If I'm up front Bonds of Justice took me a while before I got a feel for its rhythm. Max and Sophia immediately captured my attention, so that was all well. But there were a few brief moments in places where I had no idea who was talking. Which is a first for me with Singh. Also, some major grammar errors and one name error. But it was brief and thankfully didn't detract from the story.

I was a little nervous about reading a Psy and human hookup. The previous book Blaze of Memory hadn't quite worked out for me, so I was nervous about the lack of shifter loving yet again. Shame on me, Bonds of Justice brings back the fire! Max is a totally amazing character flawed and dreamy. He's the perfect type of hunky cop that will make readers swoon. What's more interesting is the J Psy (AKA Justice Psy) are the most at risk to break Silence, and they're reconditioned a lot for “tune-ups” so that they can get the most out of them during there life expectancy. Sophia is probably the most compelling female yet to take center stage. She's dark and lethal, and looks into the abyss of insanity that is the Net. Sophia is only too willing to jump into the arms of Max, which is such a fun thing. However, her Psy power and conditioning make touch hard to do. Which means lots of fun practicing for readers.

Bonds of Justice is a huge stepping stone for the plot and the universe of this series. The council is split as those who want Silence back and the Pure Psy, verses those who understand that Silence needs to end. Every twist of this book is amazing, and the two mysteries that are the focus of this book. Best of all we get to take a peek in on Sascha and Faith. It's been great following around a pregnant Sascha and as she finds out more about Empaths. Even better is the growth of Nakita and Sascha's relationship. While it's not what normal people would call real progress, it's still progress none the less.

Bonds of Justice doesn't just hook up two characters and make fire. It's building some amazing plot arcs that I can't wait to find out where they’re going. Things are going to get messy in the Net as many councilors are going to find out that the Psy aren't just mindless followers. Gives readers a look on some of our favorite past characters—mainly from Darkriver—and also shows the developing world of the Psy and what's really happening. This is the first time that a Psy love interest has had to actually stay in the Net. Well done Singh I'm forever a loyal fan with this latest entry, for shame that I ever doubted you.

Sexual Content: Psy-Changeling yumminess. Hmmmmmm.

 
4/5- Great! Really enjoyed it.
