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

play-of-passion

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!
