Branded by fire September 13, 2009 luvbooks32 (Ireland) One can always rely on Nalini Singh to deliver the goods. Other authors haven't been able to keep the same level of consistency she can.
The relationship between Riley and Mercy is smokin' hot wih neither willing to submit. Although i did miss the build up that was always present in her other books. This a minor quibble however and did not take away from my enjoyment of the book.
Plenty of progression in this book with the introduction of the bird changelings and the Human Alliance Soldier Bowen.
Lookig forward to her next release in November, Blaze of Memory featuring Dev Santos. I liked his character in Mine to Possess and i am curious to know how his story plays out.

Branded by Fire August 5, 2009 stripeyunited I love this series! Nalini Singh has managed to create a fantastic world, with an overarching theme which is fascinating, and then each book provides a brilliant story which supports the overall theme, whilst providing a tense, exciting and sexy story which expands the world of the Psy, Changelings and Humans. This is as much a thriller as a romance - a feat she's managed to pull off with every installment so far in this series.
Riley and Mercy are really vivid characters. Okay, so you know with this series you're going to get tough, dominant, hot guys, but you also know you're going to get feisty, talented, sexy women who are more than capable of handling their men and don't get bullied or intimidated or humiliated. There is always something unique about each character so with each book you're getting to know a whole community of individuals, not some stock sterotypes.
You definitely get a more heart-felt read of this book if you've been following since book 1 (Slave to Sensation) and know some of the background of the two leads. If you haven't I won't spoil the surprise.
The dynamic here has plenty of tension, because of the similarity of the roles Riley and Mercy both occupy in their respective packs, and the importance of their roles emotionally. Read it for the smoking hot relationship that develops between Riley and Mercy. Read it to find out what else is going on between the Psy, Changelings and Humans. Read it to find out what is going on with the couples you've read about in the previous 5 books. Just... read it!
Another sizzling psy-changeling book July 31, 2009 Elle L (LDN) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Nalini Singh had me hooked on her psy-changeling series since the first one, Slave to Sensation. This is the story of Mercy and Riley, which we met in previous books. What is really interesting about the world that Singh created, is the relationships and dynamics between the 3 races, the Psy, the Changelings and Humans. In each book there is a different match or psy and changeling or changeling and human, letting the reader see the prejudices, preconceptions, interal struggles and break throughs of the heroes. This one is changelings, but different breeds, Mercy is a leopard and Riley a wolf. The chemistry between them is sizzling but the barriers as big as if they were from a different race! Singh manages to thrill into another journey into her captivating world. i cant wait for the next one!
Holy cow....a must read! July 20, 2009 Katia WolfSwan 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
This book will keep you up until the early hours...forget your essay, give the kids over to your partner, turn the phone off...feign illness because you will not want to be disturbed.
Riley an Mercy are a steaming hot couple. Very interesting because this is the first book to feature a changeling couple and they are from different species. Both are dominant and both think their species is highly superior to the other. Mercy is wonderful, she's lonely but recognises that her 'cat' would not be attracted to a mate who was less dominant to her but at the same time she doesn't want a mate who has the upper hand. Riley trips all her wires sexually but he's a wolf. She's feisty and independant but unfortunately...Riley doesn't see her as dominant to him and wants to protect her. We have lots of fireworks and misunderstandings here but it's a fun ride, you really will enjoy their 'playtime' and their journey towards HEA.
Lots of other stuff with the ghost, some great scenes with the beautiful Hawke and we revisit Sacha and Lucas which was lovely.
A brilliant addition to a wonderful series. One of the best sci fi/paranormal romances around.
