Dive into a world torn apart by a powerful race with phenomenal powers of the mind—and none of the heart…
In a world that denies emotions, where the ruling Psy punish any sign of desire, Sascha Duncan must conceal the feelings that brand her as flawed. To reveal them would be to sentence herself to the horror of “rehabilitation”— the complete psychic erasure of everything she ever was….
Both human and animal, Lucas Hunter is a Changeling hungry for the very sensations the Psy disdain. After centuries of uneasy co-existence, these two races are now on the verge of war over the brutal murders of several Changeling women. Lucas is determined to find the Psy killer who butchered his packmate, and Sascha is his ticket into their closely guarded society. But he soon discovers that this ice-cold Psy is very capable of passion—and that the animal in him is fascinated by her. Caught between their conflicting worlds, Lucas and Sascha must remain bound to their identities—or sacrifice everything for a taste of darkest temptation…

I found it incredibly hypocritical that the changelings were all, “OMG the Psy think we're all just dumb animals” and then they turned around and were like, “Yeah all Psy are psychopaths and we'll just kill everybody because that's what all of you deserve (even though it's only the serial killer that's killing people).” Though ... I guess it's sadly accurate how the real world works, because people are like this. Freaking sucks.
This was my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it. I have to say this was the first “smutty” book I've read. I found the story original, creative and interesting. I felt the author created a very convincing world. The author did a great job explaining the Psy-Changeling worlds, which felt plausible. The serial killer murder was always in the backdrop of the story. It was never lost in the couples budding romance but the urgency of finding the killer wasn't, I think, as clearly felt throughout the whole novel. The chemistry and romance between the two lead characters was realistic. The romance/sex scenes were well written. Not to clique.
Good book, I recommend. I almost feel guilty I shunned the Romance genre but I think if it weren't for the paranormal world I wouldn't have gotten through this type of book.
I wasn't into this couple but I'm going to give this world a few more chances.
