Mmm...didn't work for me. I felt like I was being told over and over what the characters were like, more than shown. Like, one character says something like, “This has been the longest month of my life!” and I thought “...really? it didn't feel that engaging or stressful to me”.
My editor's eye also kept wanting to re-write sentences and delete needless words; felt like an early effort for an author who has obviously gotten much more practice since and does have a large audience.
I don't like this vision of sex–and it's a particular, world-building element of the stories; it made me feel icky, not warm and fuzzy. These seem like books about sex with shifters in them, not books about shifters where some people find partnerships. Not for me.
