4.0

4 stars

This anthology contained 4 short stories set in the Psy/changling world. Two of which are brand new

In Beat of Temptation 4 stars
DarkRiver healer Tamsyn has always had a place in her heart for Nathan, a sentinel. But he's 10 years her senior and its been hard waiting for her to grow up.
I like this story and I think it's cute. My favorite is the pieces that we get to see of the younger generation, Lucas and Dorian etc.

In Stroke of Enticement 4 stars
Annie a wary young teacher, skeptical about love, arouses the man—and the animal—in an aggressive leopard changeling who must prove his affections are true.
I like Annie and Zach. I was happy that they gotten mentioned in one of the other stories.

In Declaration of Courtship 5 stars
Grace, a shy submissive wolf, finds herself pursued by the last man she ever would have imagined: Cooper, a SnowDancer lieutenant.
This one ended up being my favorite of all the stories. I had seen the issue of extreme submissive vs dominance. It was really cool plus I liked Grace and Cooper.

In Texture of Intimacy 4.5 stars
SnowDancer healer Lara discovers the searing joys—and unexpected challenges—of being mated to quiet, powerful Walker, a man used to keeping his silence.
The only thing that I wish happened more in this story was that there was a bit more plot. The whole was a like little vignettes about Walker and Lara together, which was nice. But I really wanted a story with a solvable problem.
