Branded by Fire

I really liked what they did with the relationship dynamic in this one! It was couched in the typical ‘dominance/submission' thing that Singh does with changeling packs and, while that was a bit of an eye-roll, it's more of an obvious metaphor for the vulnerability of opening yourself up to someone you want to love and spend your life with. Mercy and Riley are both very independent people who are used to taking care of their selves and everyone important to them; it was a difficult step to allow each other to be the one caring for them.

I just really like the relationship between them. It was much more playful and cute than any other relationship in the series so far and that's contrasted really well with how dedicated and loyal they are to their packs.

Also SO excited for Sascha and Lucas and all the scenes we got with them in this book. They're definitely one of my favorite couples.

The wider plot is definitely getting crazier, with the Psy Council especially. I feel like we're getting to the breaking point soon and I can't wait!
